to Sam Chartier, the young Canadian fired a pot-sized bet of 5,000. Kastle tanked for about a minute or so before a player at the table grew uneasy and called the clock on him. After about half the allotted time passed, Kastle mucked his hand and Chartier picked up the pot to move back to 22,000 chips.Chartier informed us that he lost about half his stack early on with flush over flush. He's trying to work his way back up and feels he has a great table to do it at.

We did not, so Mattern explained to us what happened. It turns out that he raised to 250 in early position with
offsuit. He'd been raising a lot, and so was not surprised when he got action. A gentleman in mid position made it 750 to go, one Armenio Massimo called in the big blind, and Mattern called too.Mattern was delighted when the flop came down
, giving him top two pair. Then everything went mad.Massimo bet out 2,400. Mattern made it 7,500. The gentleman in mid position flat-called with 17,000 behind. Massimo then went all in for 17,500, Mattern also went all in to cover them both, and Mr. Mid Position called all in.
When the cards were flipped, Mattern was ahead - Massimo was holding
for top pair and a gutshot, while Mr. Mid Position had just the nut flush draw. A blank on the turn didn't do anything for anyone, but the river came down the 
to make Massimo a straight and Mr. Mid Position a flush. Massimo is therefore bust, Mr. Mid Position took the whole pot, and Mattern is back down to 30,000 after a very good start to the day. German Team PokerStars Pro George Danzer was listening in as Mattern retold the story. "French fish," he chuckled as Mattern headed back to the felt.
