Nicholson Drops Some More

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Joining the action on the turn of a {6-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} board, Jesper Hougaard fired 4,000 into a pot of almost the same size and both his opponents including Nicholson mucked their cards. The next hand, Nicholson limped in for 100 and Miltiadis Kyriakides raised to 300. The player in the big blind and Nicholson called to see a flop of {7-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{4-Spades}.

The player in the big blind fired 600 and both players called before giving up the {3-Spades} turn when the very same player fired a second barrel worth 2,200.

Jachtmann Takes from Nicholson

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

The three-way turn of the board {4-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{9-Spades} got checked through and the {7-Clubs} on the river was also checked to Jan-Peter Jachtmann in the cutoff. He bet 2,200 and the opponent in late position folded. Nicholson however had other plans and raised to 5,500 before quickly folding to a reraise by Jachtmann.

Kyriakides Joins Field

Level 1 : 25/50, 0 ante

Miltiadis Kyriakides is the latest addition to the field and the Greek already knows how to cash in tournaments here in the King's Casino. He made the money three times back in February and March this year. Other big scores include a third-place finish in the $ 10,000 Pot Limit Omaha (Event #64) of the World Series of Poker in 2014 and and an 8th place finish in the € 5,000 + 300 #22 No Limit Hold'em EPT Prague Main Event last December.

Hot Loves to Raise it Up

Level 1 : 25/50, 0 ante

On the river of a three-way board, reading {K-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{9-Spades}{2-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}, Besim Hot fired 4,000 into a pot of 5,000 and both his opponents including Jesper Hougaard folded. The very next hand, Hougaard raised to 175 and got two calls before Hot raised the pot to 950. Hougaard and Jan-Peter Jachtmann called with the other player in the hand folding. Jachtmann gave Hot even the nickname "Harry Potter" for raising it up and they three saw a flop of {J-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}.

The trio checked through and did the same thing on the {Q-Spades} turn as well. The {3-Hearts} filled up the board on the river and Hougaard checked. Jachtmann fired 1,500 and Hot called whereas Hougaard folded. "I have an ace," the German said and Hot replied back "I have three" before turning over {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} as winning hand.

Nothing to See Here; Just Quads

Level 1 : 25/50, 0 ante

Besim Hot raised to 125 and was called by Vasili Firsau from one seat over before the player in the hijack raised to 550. Jan-Peter Jachtmann called in the big blind and so did Hot and Firsau. On the flop {J-Spades}{8-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, all three players checked and Jachtmann then bet the {3-Spades} turn for 1,100.

All his opponents folded and the German sighed. "Oh come on," he said and then flashed the {K-Spades}{K-Hearts} first ... followed by the {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} for quad threes!

Slow Start

Level 1 : 25/50, 0 ante

Picking up the action on the turn of a {9-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{A-Clubs} board, Roman Cieslik fired 800 and was called by the player to his immediate right in the cutoff. The heads-up pot ended with the {4-Diamonds} making an appearance on the river and Cieslik checked, then folded when his opponent made it 2,300 to go.

It has been a rather slow start with two tables going and after the hand was over, Jerome Sgorrano took his seat there, too. The Belgian had won his entry to the event in a Satellite yesterday.

And Another Two

Level 1 : 25/50, 0 ante

Besim Hot tends to take his last name very serious and can run up a stack quite quickly while Roman Cieslik plays many tournaments here in the King's Casino. They are on separate tables right now with more players already having purchased tickets but not taken the seats yet.
