Hand #11 - Daniel Zink

[user46392]

Daniel Zink raises to 200,000, called by Mikhail Tulchinskiy and big blind Pieter de Korver. No respect.

Flop: {3-Hearts}

Check, check, check. Nothing of interest here.

Turn: {10-Spades}

De Korver checks again and this time Zink bets a suspicious-looking 165,000. Both players fold and he takes it down. A single person applauds from the rail. We suspect it's his brother.

Alem Shah makes his presence known for the first time with a raise to 200,000. Dag Mikkelsen decides to throw his weight (and his chips) around with a reraise to 525,000. Everyone quickly folds, including Shah.

Hand #8 - Matthew Woodward

[user75032]

All players pass to Matthew Woodward. He ships 190,000 chips into the middle and is called by Dag Mikkelsen in the small blind. The flop is pretty ragged -- {2-Diamonds}

. Mikkelsen quietly taps the felt, passing action to Woodward who takes down the pot with a bet of 225,000.

Mikhail Tulchinskiy raises to 210,000 and finds a caller in Pieter de Korver. They proceed to the flop.

Flop: {8-Spades}

Tulchinskiy now bets 350,000, and de Korver calls.

Turn: {A-Diamonds}

Tulchinskiy now makes it 550,000 -- and this time de Korver gives it up. A smattering of applause from the rail.

Hand #4 - Alem Shah

[user75032]

Action folds to Eric Qu on the button. He cuts eight oranage chips and one yellow chip off his stack and throws them into the middle, a raise to 205,000. Alem Shah is in the blinds and reraises all in for 1.495 million total. Qu mucks about with his chips for thirty seconds but folds.
