De Wolfe Nearing 300k

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Catching the action on the {3-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop, we found Roland de Wolfe firing out a bet of 10,000 from the hijack.

His lone opponent in the hand - Aleks Brkovic - made the call from the button as the {k-Hearts} spiked on the turn and de Wolfe checked.

Brkovic pushed out a bet of 18,400 with de Wolfe deliberating for a few moments before making the call only to have both players check the {5-Clubs} on the river.

De Wolfe tabled his {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} to prompt a muck from Brkovic as he slipped to 280,000 while de Wolfe climbed to just over the same mark.

Amourette: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}

'On The Mac' Now Back On The Mac!

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Jesse 'On The Mac' McKenzie staring down Reza Vakili with vicious intent!

Facing a raise of 5,200 from middle position, PokerStars.net Online Qualifier Jesse 'On The Mac' McKenzie made the call from the button, as did Reza Vakili from the big blind.

As the dealer dropped the {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{10-Clubs} flop, Vakili checked and the preflop aggressor fired out a continuation bet of 7,400 which McKenzie called before Vakili bumped opted to virtually click-it-back by making it 15,500.

The original aggressor kicked his cards to the muck before McKenzie made the call as the {4-Spades} landed on the turn and Vakili lead strongly for 30,100.

McKenzie deliberated for a few moments before moving all in for roughly 110,000 with Vakili snap-calling.

McKenzie: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Vakili: {K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}

With McKenzie needing an ace or queen to repeat, the dealer wasn't able to deliver as the {6-Hearts} was dropped on the river to send Vakili soaring up to 400,000.

Unfortunately for McKenzie - who is also an Australian Lawn Bowls representative - he was forced to exit to the rail while contending with playing poker on a mac for the remainder of the day!
