Christian Zetzsche

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Jon Thorvaldsson re-entered to table five which had a stacked line-up already. In one of the first hands there, he saw a flop of K♦9♥7♣ on which Mihkel Vitsur check-raised from 2,000 to 8,000. Thorvaldsson then pushed all-in and Vitsur called after a few seconds of consideration.

Jon Thorvaldsson: A♣K♥ All in
Mihkel Vitsur: A♣K♥

The 10♠ turn and 7♥ river were blanks, Thorvaldsson was busted again right away.

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Table five had already seen one elimination with Orvar Gudmundsson and Rasmus Sihvonen benefitting the most so far. Mihkel Vitsur entered recently and chipped up to then take on Gudmundsson in a larger pot to the 9♦5♣5♠3♦4♥ river.

With 13,000 in the middle, Gudmundsson bet 6,000 out of the small blind. Vitsur tanked for nearly two minutes, even said "strong hand" before opting to fold.
