Ponnio Outflips Kalju

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Mart Kalju opened for 2,000 from under the gun. Two players called before Risto Ponnio jammed for 45,000 from the big blind. Kalju made the call for a bit less and the other two players folded.

It was a flip situation with Ponnio holding {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Kalju holding {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}. Ponnio and Kjell Lindqvist sitting next to him shouting in join after the {8-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} came on the flop to give him a full house.

Kalju knew he was drawing super thin and got out of his seat before the {5-Clubs} came on the turn when at which point he was drawing dead. The {3-Clubs} made things official and Kalju was eliminated.

Fagerstrom Ousts Sommer

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

A player opened to 2,000 from middle position and Toni Fagerstrom called from the button. Lars Petter Hoel Sommer jammed from the big blind for about 27,000 and the original opener folded. Fagerstrom went into the tank for two minutes before making the call.

Lars Petter Hoel Sommer: {a-Spades}{8-Clubs}
Toni Fagerstrom: {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Fagerstrom was ahead the entire way and Sommer got out of his seat as the {4-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} ran out on the board.

Nut Blocker No Good for Stavne

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Ole Edvin Stavne jammed more than enough to cover the about 30,000 his opponent Pekka Aulis Kristian Virtanen had behind with the {9-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{q-Spades}{3-Diamonds} on the board and about 40,000 splashed in the pot.

Virtanen made the snap call and Stavne turned over {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}. Virtanen turned over {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for the flush to take the pot.

"Jammed with the nut blocker," said someone at the table.

"It's all in good fun," said Starvne.

Mats Albertsen

Nils Harstad shoved his massive stack of more than 150,000 that more than covered his opponent Mats Albertsen's stack of around 30,000 with the {3-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Clubs} on the board and about 40,000 splashed in the pot.

Albertsen made the snap call and turned over {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}. Harstad turned over {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} and needed a two-outer to eliminate his opponent.

The {7-Spades} completed the board on the river and Albertsen doubled up to about 100,000 in chips.
