A Lodden Lodden Action

Pretty in pink

Johnny Lodden isn't usually one for shying away from pots, but today in particular he's endured a roller coaster ride of epic proportions with enough loop-the-loops and cork screws to make even the most thick-skinned of players nauseous.

After being bashed down to just 1,500, Lodden doubled up twice to 8,000, only to sky-rocket right up to 23,000. Moments later he was down to 18,000, then 13,000, before jumping back to 20,000.

Even as I put pen to paper, Lodden was getting his fingers dirty once again. With Daniel Mangas making it 2,500 preflop, Lodden bumped it up to 6,000 from the big blind, only for Mangas to slide his entire stack across the felt. It was 11,875 more to Lodden, but he opted for the fold to leave himself with 14,000.

Phew, I'm getting dizzy just writing about it.
