Behling Doubles

Marc Inizan raised from the button and Nico Behling, resplendent in a rather awesome Pacman hoodie, pushed from the big blind. Inizan appeared to have some some of internal cally-foldy war, and eventually the cally side won, and he pushed the chips into the middle.

Behling: {7-Spades}

Inizan:

Board:

Behling doubled to around 600,000.

Room With No Thew

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

We arrived at Julian Thew's table to find the eponymous Team PokerStars Pro missing. Tablemate Ketul Nathwani filled us in.

"Well, Julian open-shoved for, like 230k. And I found aces." He grinned, very reasonably at that last bit - he's up to 1.85 million after that.

Good game, Mr. Thew.

Nathwani Lets the Gods Decide

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Short-stacked Patrick Kubat open-shoved and it folded to Ketul Nathwani in the small blind who thought about it for a while. He got a coin out of his pocket. "Heads I call," he said, and flipped it.

The coin came down tails. The coin went back in Nathwani's pocket, and Kubat's stack was returned to him. We play on.
