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

Kasparas Klezys raised from the hijack and Tom-Aksel Bedell called on the button. Leon Freiholz then shipped in his stack of 540,000 from the small blind, after which Klezys four-bet all in.

"Nice hand," said Bedell as he mucked his cards to force a heads up showdown.

Leon Freiholz: A♣Q♠10♣8♠ All in
Kasparas Klezys: A♦K♦Q♥5♦

Freiholz flopped a pair of eights on 8♣4♦7♣, which remained good enough to take down the pot when the 5♠ turn and 3♦ river completed the board.

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

Leon Freiholz got his stack of 1,355,000 in the middle from the cutoff against Espen Myrmo in the small blind, who covered him.

Leon Freiholz: A♥K♦K♠8♥ All in
Espen Myrmo: A♦10♥10♦7♥

Both players flopped an ace on A♣2♥4♠ but Freiholz had the better kicker. Nothing changed the situation on the 2♠Q♥ runout, securing Freiholz another double-up.

Myrmo, meanwhile, was left with just 14 big blinds.

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

Dario Alioto went all in preflop for 715,000 from the big blind and was looked up by Daniel Tordjman on the button.

Dario Alioto: A♣K♠8♠3♣ All in
Daniel Tordjman: Q♠Q♦8♣6♠

Tordjman's queens remained ahead on the 5♣3♠J♥ flop and locked up the pot on the 7♦ turn, making a straight with his side cards. The A♥ river gave Alioto a meaningless pair as he headed to the payout desk.

Tordjman stacked up his chips and was the first player to cross the eight-figure mark.

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

After several limps, Ismael Bojang raised to 325,000 on the button, leaving only a few chips behind. Daniel Tordjman then made it 1,000,000 to go in the big blind, folding out the rest of the players.

Ismael Bojang: K♥Q♦Q♣J♥ All in
Daniel Tordjman: A♥K♦Q♥5♠

Tordjman outflopped Bojang on 7♦K♠10♠, making top pair with a better kicker. He made two pair on the 5♦ turn, which ended up being the winning hand when the 6♦ river bricked out.

Bojang was eliminated during the final hands of the night, finishing in 14th place.

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

On the final hand of the night, Espen Myrmo pushed in as many chips as he could preflop, being called by Kasparas Klezys and Tom-Aksel Bedell. Myrmo was left with just 55,000, which he tossed in on the J♦10♥K♦ flop.

Klezys called, after which Bedell raised to 400,000. That was enough to let Klezys let go of his hand, bringing it to showdown.

Espen Myrmo: A♥K♥10♠9♠ All in
Tom-Aksel Bedell: A♦Q♦6♥5♥

Bedell had flopped the nut straight, leaving Myrmo drawing slim. The A♠ turn provided some outs for Myrmo, but the 2♣ river was a brick.

Bedell eliminated his fellow Norwegian in 13th place, and the remaining 12 players bagged up for the night.

Player	Chips	Progress
Tom-Aksel Bedell	4,300,000 300,000	300,000
Kasparas Klezys	3,350,000 50,000	50,000
