Level 8 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Ole Schemion was knocked far down but he managed to get up quickly as he's almost on 100,000 after beating Jason Pritchard out of a pot.

Schemion raised to 3,200 preflop and Hoi Cheung called, as did Jason Pritchard from the small blind.

The flop came down {3-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and Pritchard check-called 4,200, Cheung folded. On the turn the {3-Clubs} hit and both players checked. The river brought the {J-Clubs} and Pritchard check-folded to a 9,300-chip bet.
