Mägi in Cruise Control

Christian Zetzsche

Level 14 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Table 12 currently features two open seats, six players from Estonia and one from Denmark. Kasper Wurtz is hanging in there but several local contenders have a ton of chips at their disposal.

One of them is Andre Mägi, who had just dispatched Miko Mannisto from Finland. The latter jammed the A♣K♥6♠5♣ turn with A♠6♦ only to get snapped off by Mägi with the A♦K♣ for the top two pair. No miracle came with the 2♥ river to send Mannisto out.

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Hans Winther raised to 10,000 and Mika Paasonen then three-bet jammed for 66,000 out of the big blind.

The start of day chip leader sighed and went into the tank. "Anyone but you," he said but eventually called anyways.

Mika Paasonen: A♠J♥ All in
Hans Winther: A♥Q♥

The superior kicker reigned supreme on the K♣9♣6♠3♠Q♣ board for Paasonen to bust. Winther had been struggling as of lately but bounced back to an average stack.
