Schulman Quacks Loudest

With the board reading {2-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {2-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} Nick Schulman fired out 92,000 against Danilo Ettoris with the Italian instantly calling.

Schulman showed {2-Spades} {2-Diamonds} for flopped quads, and Ettoris unhappily turned over {A-Clubs} {J-Clubs} for top two pair.

As Schulman raked in the pot, Ettoris began to explain the whole tale to a nearby Italian reporter. We did not understand what was said but we're guessing the gist was something along the lines of, "Bloody hell, how is that he can flop quads and I somehow end up making top two pair by the river. Flipping heck."

Dan Shak Thinking and Hoping

Shak Attack
Shak Attack
Dan Shak opened for 30,000 in the cutoff and Angelo Papini shoved fo 112,000 from the cutoff. After a while Shak called.

Shak: {A-Clubs} {2-Clubs}
Papini: {A-Spades} {7-Spades}

Board: {K-Spades} {J-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {3-Clubs}

They chopped the pot and took their chips back. "I thought he had a weak ace," reasoned Shak, "I hoped he had king-queen."

Nguyen Wins

Thang Duc Nguyen did a little circuit with his hands in the air in victory, shouting, "YESSS!!!" This is what alerted us to the fact that he had doubled up.

We're guessing that the chips went in on the flop.

Nguyen, big blind: {A-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}
Maurizio Baisi, button: {8-Hearts} {5-Hearts}

Board: {4-Spades} {8-Spades} {4-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {3-Diamonds}

Nguyen is up to 600,000 after that.

Linde Flushes Flushy

James "Flushy" Dempsey has taken a hit after calling hefty bets on the turn and river of a paint-covered, three-heart board, only to discover that Per Linde had turned a flush. He made a noise like, "Tchhh," and then told his opponent, "Pretty sick turn card."

Flushy - down to 730,000
Linde - up to over 700,000

Csurses

Dag Martin Mikkelsen - who if you recall famously and spectacularly blew up at the Monte Carlo Grand Final final table last year - has coinflipped his way to a double up.

It looks like he raised and then shoved to a reraise from Ramon Demon Cserei in the small blind. A call, and a showdown.

Cserei: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}
Mikkelsen: {A-Spades} {K-Hearts}

Board: {A-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {6-Spades}

Mikkelsen is up to over 400,000. Cserei is down to 235,000.

No Catch-Up For Heinz

Heinz Kamutzki is nursing a much shorter stack than before after his {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds} was cracked by Alfonso Illiano's {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} when the board came out {Q-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {3-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {9-Clubs}. Illiano looks to have doubled up to about 400,000 while Kamutzki has a little over 200,000.

Flushed With Success

Flushy

James "Flushy" Dempsey is up to about 950,000 after taking a large pot from Jens Thorson.

Dempsey opened for 18,000 preflop, getting two callers including Thorson. The flop was a rainbow {9-?} {8-?} {5-?} and Dempsey continued his aggression, betting 34,500.

Thorson was the only caller and fired out 53,000 on {6-?} turn after Dempsey checked. The river was the {9-?} and Dempsey checked once more but called Thorson's 112,500 bet.

The Swede was forced to show {2-?} {2-?} but lost out to Dempsey's {5-?} {5-?}.

Dempsey took another little pot from Thorson after the Swede limped preflop on Dempsey's big blind before calling a 12,000 bet on a {10-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} board. The river {Q-Clubs} went check-check, Dempsey showed the hammer {7-Clubs} {2-Hearts} and again that was enough.
