Schwippert Through the Back Door

Level 1 : 100/200, 25 ante

Jan Schwippert opened for 600 on the button and called 2,600 from Alex Foxen in the small blind. Both checked the flop for a board of {q-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{a-Spades}{4-Hearts}. Foxen checked and called 1,800. He checked the {a-Hearts} river and Schwippert bet 5,400. Foxen sighed and dropped his head before putting in calling chips, and he couldn't beat {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a flush.

Hearts Good to Schwippert Again

Level 1 : 100/200, 25 ante

Jan Schwippert checked from the small blind on a board of {k-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and called 3,500 from Alex Foxen, an overbet into a pot of about 2,500. The river brought a {j-Hearts} and two checks. Foxen turned over {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} for a set but mucked with a sigh when Schwippert showed {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}, connecting with the board's four-flush.

Foxen Battling Back

Level 1 : 100/200, 25 ante

Jan Schwippert checked in the big blind on {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}{5-Hearts} and Alex Foxen bet 500 from the button. Schwippert made it 1,450 and Foxen called. Schwippert bet 1,800 on the {3-Diamonds} turn and Foxen called again. Both players checked the {8-Hearts} and Schwippert showed {q-Spades}{7-Spades} for an airball.

Foxen took it with {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}.

The next hand, Sam Greenwood raised on the button to 600 and Schwippert made it 2,700 to go. Foxen put in the cold four-bet to 6,900 and that chased both opponents away.

Greenwood Takes One

Level 2 : 200/400, 50 ante

Sam Greenwood raised to 1,100 on the button and got two callers. Everyone checked the {3-Spades}{2-Spades}{10-Spades}{k-Spades}{k-Diamonds} board until the last action, when Greenwood bet 1,600. Jan Schwippert folded but Alex Foxen called, mucking to {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}.

In between pots, the players are cajoling Dietrich Fast and some of the other known high stakes regs to sit in, but Fast maintained he can't play yet.

Four-bet Pot to Schwippert

Level 2 : 200/400, 50 ante

Jan Schwippert raised to 1,000 on the button, Alex Foxen three-bet to 3,000 from the small blind, Schwippert four-bet to 8,200 and Foxen called.

Postflop, action slowed down on a {4-Spades}{2-Spades}{4-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{4-Clubs} rundown. Schwippert was the final one to act on the river and flicked in two T-5,000 chips, announcing what appeared to be 9,200. It didn't matter, as Foxen instantly released his hand.

"Need More Action"

Level 2 : 200/400, 50 ante

Four-bets are suddenly the norm.

Alex Foxen opened for 1,000 and got three-bet to 3,600 by Sam Greenwood in the small blind. Foxen came back with 9,600 and Greenwood thought briefly before mucking.

"Need more action," Foxen said, showing the {3-Spades} with a smile.

Greenwood Wins Last Hand Before Break

Level 2 : 200/400, 50 ante

Sam Greenwood raised to 1,100 on the button and Alex Foxen defended his big blind. Greenwood continued for 700 on the {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{10-Hearts} flop and Foxen check-called.

On the {8-Clubs} turn, Foxen opted to lead 3,400 and Greenwood called. The river brought the fourth heart with the {Q-Hearts}. Foxen checked, Greenwood bet 6,000 and Foxen scratched his head. He seized up Greenwood, stared at the felt and pondered a call before eventually flinging his hand in the muck.

After the hand, the players went on a 15-minute break.
