Gudmundsson Scores a Triple Up

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

With the flop showing A♦Q♥J♥, Orvar Gudmundsson was already all-in and at risk, awaiting his fate with Mihkel Vitsur and Johan Mattsson still active. The clock was called on Mattsson as he was deep in the tank, and they then eventually checked to the K♥ turn.

Mattsson tanked again a long time and was given thirty seconds. They had run down when he wanted to bet 10,000, but his action was already a check. Vitsur then pushed all-in and Mattsson reluctantly folded after he was called the clock upon again.

Orvar Gudmundsson: A♣3♥ All in
Mihkel Vitsur: 10♦8♦

Gudmundsson needed another heart and got it with the 4♥ river to stay alive. The hand took several minutes into the break and the rail from Iceland left happily.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Andreas Hoivold was unable to spin up his short stack and couldn't beat the A♦J♣ of Robert Kallikorm on a board of A♣Q♥7♦A♥Q♠ to hit the rail.

"He is a Norwegian champion," Kjetil Sandnes pointed out to Teemu Kaonpää after Hoivold had left the tournament area.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Edgar Blomso limped first to act and Andri Agustsson moved all-in for 6,000. All other players folded and Blomso called.

Andri Agustsson: 9♦9♠ All in
Edgar Blomso: Q♦Q♣

The dominated pair found no help on the 7♥5♦4♣K♣4♠ runout to send Agustsson to the rail

"You are on a roll," another player at the table said and a floor added "and you are on the move," as Blomso was instantly moved to a newly opened table after the hand.
