Silver Nõmmik Doubles

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Local player Silver Nõmmik was one of the shorter stacks in the room. His stack more than doubled when he was all-in with {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} on a {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{5-Clubs} board against Seppo Illman Lehtonen who held {A-Hearts}{k-Clubs}.

While Nõmmik's stack grew after the hand to 33,000, Lehtonen who was building chips took a minor step backwards with 80,000.

Enri Orav Stack Grows After Break

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

The action folded around to Enri Orav who min-raised to 1,600 on the button. Kasper called from the big blind and the player in the big blind folded.

On the {3-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop, Kasper check-called a bet of 2,200 from Orav. She check-called again when the {8-Spades} hit the turn, this time for 5,600.

Orav then bet 25,000 on the river, which effectively would have put Kasper all-in for her tournament life if she called. She thought for two minutes before she tried to get a read from Orav. Orav laughed before he covered his face with his shirt.

Kasper eventually folded her hand, and while Orav was about to show one card, she said she didn't want to look and turned her head. The rest of the table saw Orav flash a meaningless {9-Diamonds}.

"Going Better" For the Chip Leader

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Enri Orav

Enri Orav just shared that things are now "going better."

On a {k-}{8-Spades}{7-}{q-Spades} board, his opponent went all in with a three-bet all-holding {8-Spades}{5-Spades} and was called by Orav who was holding {k-}{10-}. The {J-Hearts} on the river was of no help to his opponent, and Orav has the first six-digit stack in the tournament after he shipped a pot of almost 30,000.

"Only Bad" For the Chip Leader

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Enri Orav still appears to have the biggest stack in the room with 81,000 chips. When asked how things were going, he said "only bad" until he was reminded that he has more chips than before. He responded "that's true, but it's still only going bad."

Birthday Boy Jens Riis Wins a Family Pot

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Jens Riis
Jens Riis

From early position, Mauri Dorbek limped for 600 and got calls from three other players including Jens Riis and Martin Männamaa.

Flop: {8-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{2-Clubs}

Dorbek made the action after the flop with a bet of 1,600 with one opponent folding and Männamaa and Riis calling. All players checked when the {4-Diamonds} appeared on the turn.

Riis fired out a bet of 2,500 on the {Q-Clubs} river and both his opponents folded. He then looked at both cards, and said 'I guess my fours are good, flashing one to the table.'
