Annette Busts

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Annette sleeps with the fishes

One lady who will not be making the money is Annette Obrestad. She limped in from the button with {7-?}

{7-?}

{9-?}

and saw a very favourable {J-?}

{J-?}

{7-?}

{9-?}

flop, when all the chips went in. Ivo Donev was holding an inferior {J-?}

{J-?}

{8-?}

... And bang, an eight on the turn.

Lajos Laszlo Eliminated

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

I caught the action on the flop of {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{2-Spades}

. Three players. Lajos Laszlo moved all in for 50,000. Martin Jacobson called. Unknown player folded.

Jacobson: {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

Laszlo:

{A-Hearts}

{K-Clubs}

Laszlo was ahead, but Jacobson had a nut flush draw. The turn was the {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

and Jacobson took the lead. The river was the {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

. Jacobson won the pot and Laszlo was eliminated. That hand pushed Jacobson over the 200,000 mark.
