Kerignard Benefits from Guldhammer

Yorane Kerignard
Yorane Kerignard
Yorane Kerignard opened to 90,000, and he was called by -- you guessed it -- Morten Guldhammer. The two men went heads up the rest of the way.

The flop came out {10-Clubs} {A-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}, and Kerignard checked. Guldhammer put out 235,000 chips, and Kerignard tank-called. Both men checked the {J-Diamonds} on the turn, and the {3-Hearts} filled out the board. Kerignard needed to bet, and he slid out 260,000. The call came instantly from Guldhammer, but he was beaten. Kerignard's {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs} had his opponent's {A-Spades} {8-Hearts} out-kicked, and he wins the pot of about 1.3 million goes to Kerignard.

Morten Guldhammer's propensity for putting chips into the pot has now made him the table short stack.

Don't Mess with the Chip Leader

Chip leader Anton Wigg raised to 92,000 under the gun and Yorane Kerignard in the big blind made the call.

It was all over very swiftly come the {3-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} flop though - Kerignard checked, and then folded to the continuation bet from Wigg.

Reraised Pot Almost Turns Massive

Richard "Don't Call Me Richard Toth" Loth raised to 91,000 on the buton, and in the small blind Roberto Romanello made it 235,000. Morten Klein in the big blind paused. He asked for a count on Romanello's stack. Everyone held their breath. But after a moment he passed, and once Loth had done so too, the pot went to Romanello.

Getting Shorter

Morten Guldhammer just open-shoved for 612,000. The other Morten (Klein) asked for a count before eventually passing, and the rest of the table followed suit.

Guldhammer picks up the blinds and antes, still working the short stack.

Petersen Folds What?

Jesper Petersen
Jesper Petersen
Morten Klein opened to 110,000, and Jesper Petersen made a reraise to 270,000. Action came back around to Klein, and he thought it over before moving all in with a covering four-bet. Petersen had about a third of his chips committed to the pot already, getting a great price on his remaining money. Despite that, he took just a few seconds to open-muck his {J-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}, to the shock of the media room and the broadcast booth.

"That's the worst play I've seen since I've been doing the broadcast," said commentator and Team PokerStars Pro William Thorson.

Petersen is down around 600,000 now, and the short stack on the table.

Klein Shows a Queen

Roberto Romanello raised to 96,000 but Morten Klein made the call out of the small blind.

They made it as far as the turn of the {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {9-Spades} board before Romanello gave it up to a 120,000 bet from Klein. Klein showed him a third queen just to prove that he hadn't been at it, and they played on.

Petersen Really Having Trouble

From the small blind, Jesper Petersen raised to 120,000. Francesco De Vivo moved all in from the big blind, and Petersen was in another tough spot. He once again had a significant chunk of his chips committed to the pot, and he once again didn't seem to want to put the rest in there.

After another few minutes of debate, he let his hand go, slipping back under 450,000.

Gulp.

Jesper Petersen Eliminated in Eighth Place (282,800 DKK)

It had been a while since we'd seen any serious action, so everyone was terribly excited when Anton Wigg raised to 92,000 only for Jesper Petersen to shove for 414,000 from the big blind. After a moment, Wigg called.

Wigg: {A-Spades} {4-Clubs}
Petersen: dominating with {A-Clubs} {Q-Spades}

Board: bang! {4-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {3-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}

Wigg spiked a four, and it was enough to eject Petersen from the tournament in eighth place.
