Tordjman Fires Huge

Frank Visser

Level 17 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Leon Freiholz limped in from the hijack and was met with a raise to 225,000 by Espen Myrmo on the button. Daniel Tordjman then three-bet to 775,000 in the small blind, causing Freiholz to fold quickly.

Myrmo tossed in a call, however, and saw a flop of 5♦J♠9♦ appear. Tordjamn announced a pot-sized bet of 1,675,000, causing Myrmo to go in the tank.

After one time bank, Myrmo elected to muck his cards as he surrendered the pot to the chipleader.

Level 16 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Andrew Ige had gotten all-in preflop against Lautaro Guerra, with his stack of 1,190,000 at risk.

Andrew Ige: A♥J♦8♦7♥ All in
Lautaro Guerra: A♠A♦9♦4♥

Ige flopped a flush draw on K♥2♥4♦, with the 3♥ turn bringing it in. Guerra's aces were left drawing dead, making the 3♦ river meaningless.

Level 16 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Most of Leon Freiholz's chips had gone in preflop from the cutoff against Tom-Aksel Bedell in the cutoff, creating a pot of more than 1,000,000 chips.

Freiholz then committed his final 155,000 on the J♣J♥9♣ flop. Bedell gave it some serious thought but ultimately decided his odds were too good and made the call.

Leon Freiholz: K♦K♣Q♥2♥ All in
Tom-Aksel Bedell: 9♦8♥6♦5♦

Bedell turned some extra hope with the 7♣ appearing, but the A♣ river provided no further help, doubling up Freiholz with his kings.

Level 16 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Preflop, Andreas Zampas had gotten his stack of 1,850,000 in during a blind-on-blind battle with Daniel Tordjman and was at risk.

Andreas Zampas: A♠A♦A♣Q♦ All in
Daniel Tordjman: A♥Q♠9♥8♠

Tordjman flopped a straight on the Q♥J♠10♠ flop, leaving Zampas a very slim chance to win. He could only chop after the 6♣ turn, but the 4♣ river did not provide both players with Broadway.

The start-of-day chipleader had made it to the final two tables but bowed out in 16th place.
