100 Hands of Heads-Up Play

A grueling heads-up battle has unfolded between Jen Harman and Thomas Bihl
A grueling heads-up battle has unfolded between Jen Harman and Thomas Bihl
Kirk Morrison busted out in third place 100 hands ago on Hand #226. After Morrison's elimination, both Jen Harman and Thomas Bihl were about even in chips. Over that span, she pulled away by almost 300,000, but Bihl fought back. She holds an edge of around 200,000. Bihl won't back down.

To quote Teddy KGB from "Rounders," -- "The kid has alligator blood in his veins."

Hands #326-7 (Razz)

Hand #326: Harman completes the bet to 20K with the {4-Diamonds} showing -- Bihl folds his {7-Clubs}.

Hand #327: Bihl receives the same number of chips in exactly the same way.

Hands #328-329 (Razz)

Hand #328: Bihl brings it in, Harman completes, Bihl folds and Harman wins the pot.

Hand #329: Harman brings it in with the {K-Diamonds}, Bihl completes with the {9-Spades}, Harman folds and Bihl wins the pot.

Hands #330-1 (Razz)

Hand #330: Harman gets the bring-in by making it 20K to Bihl, who didn't like the look of his {Q-Hearts}.

Hand #331: They get a second card, but no further than the original 20K bet from Bihl -- it all happened sans announcing -- no detail.

Hands #332-333 (Stud)

Hand #332:

Harman: {J-Spades}{3-Clubs}
Bihl: {4-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

Harman brings it in, Bihl completes and Harman calls. On fourth street Harman leads out, Bihl raises, Harman folds.

Hand #333:

Harman: {3-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Bihl: {2-Spades}{K-Hearts}{4-Spades}

Harman bets out on fifth street and Bihl folds.

Hands #334-5 (Stud)

Hand #334: Bihl calls 40K with the {K-Spades} -- Harman had the {6-Diamonds}. He bet out 20K on fourth street, and check-called fifth. On sixth street it looked like:

Harman: {6-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Bihl: {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}{7-Spades}{Q-Spades}

Harman called 40K here, and after a long dwell, 40K on the river too. Bihl flipped 10-J-Q-K-A for a Broadway straight and the winning hand.

Hand #335: Harman gets one 20K bet from Bihl before he passes on fourth street.

Hands #336-337 (Stud)

Hand #336: Bihl brings it in, Harman completes, Bihl folds and Harman wins the pot.

Hand #337: Bihl brings it in, Harman completes, Bihl folds and Harman wins the pot.
