Halvorsen Eliminated by Wheatley

Christian Zetzsche

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Russel Wheatley three-bet and then saw Morten Halvorsen four-bet all-in for 20,900. The initial raiser folded and Wheatley, who didn't have a lot more to pay, sigh-called with a shrug.

Morten Halvorsen: 8♠8♣ All in
Russel Wheatley: Q♠J♠

The J♣4♠4♦4♥Q♦ board improved Wheatley on the flop and river to knock out Halvorsen.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

In a preflop contest, Haukur Bödvarsson pushed all-in against Eeti Löyttyniemi and the latter called for more than the starting stack.

Eeti Löyttyniemi: A♣K♣ All in
Haukur Bödvarsson: A♦5♦

The inferior kicker got there right away on the 9♥6♠5♣ flop, the 10♠ turn and 6♦ river locked up the elimination for Bödvarsson.

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Kristjan Odinsson raised to 2,000 and then called all-in when Jhonro Magno moved all-in with the covering stack.

Kristjan Odinsson: K♦Q♥ All in
Jhonro Magno: A♥Q♣

This time, the better hand preflop held on the Q♠10♣6♦6♣A♦ board and that spelled the end for Odinsson. Both players from Iceland briefly chatted with Odinsson mentioning he will be heading off to the cash games instead of re-entering.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

In a three-bet pot with around 13,000 in the middle to the A♠7♣6♣ flop, Terje Sirnes in the small blind bet 4,500 and big stack Jhonro Magno called in the hijack. The J♣ fell on the turn and Sirnes checked. Magno pushed all-in and Sirnes quickly called.

Terje Sirnes: A♣10♥ All in
Jhonro Magno: 10♣2♣

Sirnes needed another club but bricked the 5♦ river to become the next casualty of Magno's hot run early on Day 1a.

"The Doyle, I had to honour him," Magno said while raking in the pot.
