Bodvarsson Busts After Bluff

Frank Visser

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Big blind Petteri Laiho checked the 7♥9♦9♥5♠ turn over to Haukur Bodvarsson in the hijack, who fired a pot-sized bet of 7,000. Laiho called, leading to the 2♥ river.

Laiho thought for a while before he checked it over, after which Bodvarsson quickly bet 16,000. Laiho sighed as he tossed in a call, but Bodvarsson quickly tapped the table to let his opponent know he made a good call.

Bodvarsson tabled 4♥4♦ for an underpair, leaving Laiho to take the pot with Q♥7♣ for a higher two pair. Not much later, Bodvarsson was seen leaving the tournament area as he had lost the 21,000 chips he had left himself behind.

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Kaarel Vohandu raised his button to 3,000, after which Jonas Pettersen committed his stack of 12,700 from the big blind. Vohandu asked for a count before he called off.

Jonas Pettersen: K♣Q♣ All in
Kaarel Vohandu: 7♠7♦

Vohandu flopped a set on 4♦7♥Q♥, and Pettersen was drawing dead after the J♦ turn brought no further help. The 5♦ river was of no use to either player, resulting in Pettersen's exit.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Three-way to a 4♠3♠4♣Q♦ turn, it checked to Jan Wago in middle position. He added 3,000 to the pot of 9,000, which Magnus Pukk raised to 9,000 in the small blind.

Teemu Leppalahti then took a while before he moved all in for 23,500, prompting Wago to make a quick fold. Pukk did not need long before he called, covering Leppalahti's stack.

Teemu Leppalahti: 5♥4♥ All in
Magnus Pukk: 3♦3♣

Leppalahti's trips did not improve on the J♠ river, and he was left empty-handed as Pukk's full house took the pot.

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Roy Tonne open-raised to 1,600 in early position. Silver Simulask flat-called in middle position before Robert Hagevik three-bet to 6,000 in the cutoff. Tonne and Simulask both called, and a 2♥5♥4♣ flop was spread.

It checked to Hagevik, who continued with a bet of 6,500. Tonne called before Simulask quickly got out of the way. Tonne continued checking on the 2♠ turn, prompting Hagevik to put his opponent all-in.

Tonne instantly called off his 20,000 chips, and the cards were revealed.

Roy Tonne: J♠J♣ All in
Robert Hagevik: 9♥9♣

Tonne just needed to fade a nine to double up, but the deck had a nasty surprise in store when the 9♦ appeared on the river. Hagevik made a full house to crack the jacks of Tonne, sending him to his third exit of the day.

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

After button Roy Tonne had three-bet an earlier open, Markus Hirttio four-bet to 11,400 in the small blind. The initial raiser folded before Tonne moved all in for 25,500.

Hirttio tanked for a while, but he ultimately decided his odds were too good as he made a reluctant call.

Roy Tonne: A♣K♣ All in
Markus Hirttio: A♦J♦

Tonne was dominating his opponent again, but Hirttio turned a straight on Q♥10♦8♠9♠ for a huge lead. Tonne could not strike back on the 10♣ river, ending his fourth bullet of Day 1b.

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

In a pot of 15,000, Esa Turpeinen in early position and Hafthor Sigmundsson on the button pushed all their chips in the middle on the 2♥A♦K♣2♣ turn, with Sigmundsson's stack of 40,000 being the one at risk.

Hafthor Sigmundsson: A♥Q♣ All in
Esa Turpeinen: A♣6♣

Turpeinen rooted for a club to complete his flush, but the 6♦ hit the river instead, making him a better two pair to secure the pot and knock Sigmundsson out.

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Kai Tiainen raised to 2,200 in middle position, which John Sara called in the hijack. It folded to Teemu Leppalahti in the small blind, who moved all in for 25,000. Tiainen reshoved after some thought, sending Sara into the tank.

After some time, Sara folded what he claimed were pocket jacks, leaving the other players to show down.

Teemu Leppalahti: Q♠Q♣ All in
Kai Tiainen: A♣K♦

Tiainen paired his king on the 10♥9♣4♥K♥2♦ board to win the pot and soar further up the leaderboard.

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Erik Sonsteby made it 2,500 under the gun. Haukur Bodvarsson tossed in a call from middle position, after which Lemet Gaup moved all in for 18,700 on the button.

Sonsteby rejammed for 72,900 once it folded back to him, which put Bodvarsson into the tank. "I'm such a pussy," he eventually concluded as he folded what he claimed were queens.

Lemet Gaup: A♦J♦ All in
Erik Sonsteby: A♠K♠

Sonsteby's kicker awarded him the pot on the 10♦3♠4♠9♣2♦ board, meaning Bodvarsson would have scooped a monster pot had he made the call. Meanwhile, Gaup was eliminated at the tail end of Day 1b.
