Pantling Drops a Pot

Andrew Pantling opened to 200, and Billy Jordanou raised to 600. Pantling called.

Flop: {3-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts} - Jordanou checked, and Pantling bet 500. Jordanou called.

Turn: {8-Diamonds} - Same action. Jordanou check-called 500.

River: {j-Diamonds} - Jordanou checked a third time, and when Pantling moved all in, Billy folded. He's now down to 2,000 in the first game of the second round.

Woods and Wong Play Ping Pong

Darren Woods raised to 300, and Nick Wong reraised to 700. Woods moved all in, and Wong called.

Woods: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Wong: {k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

The board fell {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, giving Woods two pair and a double up to 6,300.

A minute later, they got it all in again. "Here we go again," said Wong. "Am I just going to give them right back to you?" It was Wong's {k-}{10-} against Woods' {a-}{5-}.

The {a-} in the door had Woods smiling, but then the dealer spread the whole flop: {a-}{q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}. Wong's wheel was plenty good for the double up.

And then a minute after that, they did it again. Woods shoved {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} to flip with Wong's {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}. The board fell jack-high, and they were back to even. "Should we just flip a coin?" asked Woods.

Obrestad Ousted by Jordanou

Annette Obrestad
Annette Obrestad

We're not quite sure how it happened. One second, Annette Obrestad was at the other end of the table from Billy Jordanou. A minute later, the table is full of satellite players who have been hovering around the area waiting for seats for the last 15 minutes. Jordanou eliminated Obrestad in two straight games, leaving her free to go back to watching the Australian Open.

Jordanou will play the winner of the Dan Cates and Andrew Pantling match.

Steike Moves On; Karamalikis Out

Jonathan "xMONSTERxDONGx" Karamalikis
Jonathan "xMONSTERxDONGx" Karamalikis

David Steike raised to 150 on the button, and Jonathan Karamalikis called. After the {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop, Karamalikis bet out 275, and after a pause, Steike called. The turn brought the {6-Hearts} and this time, Karamalikis checked. Steike bet 1,025. Karamalikis tanked awhile before deciding to shove. It was an easy call for Steike.

Karamalikis: {k-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} for a pair of tens
Steike: {q-Spades}{7-Hearts} for queens and sevens

The {j-Diamonds} was uneventful, and with that, Steike took a 2:0 lead over Karamalikis. That's enough to eliminate him. Steike moves on to the round of 16.
