held up on the queen-high board and he tripled up to 4,500.

Keiner Doubles Up

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

There was an under the gun raise, and it folded around to Michael Keiner on the button who pushed all in for his last 2,000 or so. An insta-call from under the gun, and it was an easy double up for Keiner.

Under the gun: {J-Hearts}

Keiner:

Board: an uneventful {6-Diamonds}

Keiner is still short, though, on around 4,000. He clawed a few back, but then lost them again to ElkY -- Keiner called a preflop raise from ElkY and tried it on for 600 on the turn of the {4-Diamonds}

board, but folded to a raise from ElkY that would have put him all in. 4,000 it is for Keiner.

Golser No Good Against a House

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Markus Golser is down to 7,000 after making it to the river of a {6-Diamonds}

board. The gentleman in the big blind bet out 1,200 only for the gent on the cutoff to raise to 2,400. Golser flat-called and the big blind decided it wasn't worth a call. The cutoff turned over pocket jacks for a full house, and Golser mucked, with a rather sour expression on his face.

Table Of Current Doom

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Currently right by the rail we have a table to be genuinely feared -- it features Katja Thater, Isabelle Mercier, Nicolas Levi and Jonas Molander. Ignoring the doom that is apparent to observers, the atmosphere among the players on said table is jovial.

Deja Vu for Mizzi

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Shortly after that triple up at Table Levi-De Wolfe, the table was broken and Mizzi was moved... right back into his original seat, with Alex Kravchenko still in position on him. His triple up has dwindled a little as well, and he's currently sitting on 3,100 in chips.
