Simmer Doubles Up and Eliminates Tõnus

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Coolbet Open
Coolbet Open

Joosep Tõnus had less than a big blind left while in the big blind and was all-in before any cards were dealt. This didn't stop major action from taking place.

Ivar Simmer opened for 14,000 from early position and Frank Robert Berget called from the button.

Simmer check-called a bet of 21,000 after the flop came {5-Clubs}{q-Spades}{5-Spades} from Berget.

Simmer checked again after the {9-Hearts} came on the turn. Berget fired out again, this time for 31,000. Simmer went into the tank for two minutes before he raised to 75,000. Berget then three-bet enough to cover Simmer, thus effectively making the bet for 146,000 total.

Simmer snap-called and turned over {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} and Berget was drawing dead with {Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}. The {7-Diamonds} came on the river and Tõnus turned over {4-Spades}{3-Clubs}.

Tõnus exited the tournament in 45th place for €1,250, while Simmer collected a monster pot. Meanwhile at other tables, Akseli Timonpoika Paalanen, Jan C. Kongsgard Højmark, Karev Tralla, Allan Rasmus Dyrstad, and Frode Hoel were all eliminated before Tonus and also collected €1,250.

All remaining players are now guaranteed a €1,400 payday.

Jussi Mattila Bubbles on a Huge Cooler

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Jussi Mattila Bubbles the Coolbet Open Main Event
Jussi Mattila Bubbles the Coolbet Open Main Event

The bubble has just been broken and it was a bit of a cooler for Finland's Jussi Mattila.

Afshin Alikhani opened for 20,000 from late position and Jussi Mattila called from big blind.

Mattila check-called a bet of 35,000 after the {10-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades} came on the flop.

Both players checked after the {10-Spades} came on the turn.

Mattila open jammed for 100,000 after the {k-Spades} came on the river and Alikhani snap-called.

The action was paused while waiting for the other tables to complete their hands before Mattila turned over {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a full house. This wasn't good enough as Alikhani turned over {K-Spades}{K-Hearts} for a better full house on the river.

While Mattila misses out on a payday, the remaining 55 players are now all guaranteed a payout of €1,050.

Nommik Eliminates Ringstad

Silver Nommik
Silver Nommik

Espen Ringstad jammed for 57,000 from middle position. Silver Nommik called from late position and Jussi Mattila also called from the big blind.

Nommik bet 76,000 and Mattila went into the tank for about six minutes talking the entire time. A player eventually called time and Mattila folded {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts} face-up.

Nommik turned over {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and was ahead of Ringstad who turned over {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}.

Ringstad hit the rail after the {j-Clubs} appeared on the turn followed by the {6-Hearts} on the river and there are now 59 players left in the field.

Mattila Can't Head to the Bar Quite Yet

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Jussi Mattila has shared a few times with his table that he wants to go out so he can head to the bar.

It looks like his trip to the bar will be delayed as he just doubled up against Silver Nommik.

We caught up with the hand when all the chips were in the middle but Mattila with {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} had his stack of 108,000 at risk against Nommik's monster stack with {A-}{K-}.

The {4-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds} board was a safe one for Mattila and he doubled up while Nommik's stack took a small dent.

Near the Bubble

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

The action has somewhat slowed now that the field is down to 63 players with 55 getting paid. There is no obvious stalling happening at any of the tables but there haven't been many big pots.
