First Break, Still Bubble

[user46298]

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante

The remaining 65 players are steadfastly refusing to put themselves on the line for bubble elimination. Playing hand for hand means that the pace has slowed to that of a snail through treacle. The tension is relieved by a ten minute pause, happening right now.

Brit-on-Brit Action; Brit Wins

[user46392]

It folded around to Jonathan Weekes in the small blind, who raised. In the big blind, fellow Brit JP Kelly called and they proceeded to the flop.

Flop: {9-Spades} {8-Spades} {k-Spades}

Weekes led out for 18,500 and Kelly made the call; they saw a turn card.

Turn: {7-Hearts}

This time both players checked. In fact, they checked the river too -

River: {q-Hearts}

- and Weekes turned over {q-Clubs} {10-Clubs} for a rivered pair of queens, but Kelly's {k-Diamonds} {10-Spades} had him pipped, and the Team PokerStars Pro picked up the pot.

Freitez' Quads Do Not Get Paid

[user46392]

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante

Domantas Klimciauskas opened from the cutoff and Ivan Freitez, our sole Venezuelan, called in the small blind to see a flop.

Both players checked the {q-} {q-} {7-} flop and Freitez checked the {9-} turn as well, calling the small bet from Klimciauskas. He checked for a third time on the {q-} river and this time Klimciauskas checked behind - and then mucked with a flourish to Freitez' {q-} {10-} for quads.

Weekes, Van Til Get Their Pushes Through

[user76023]

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante

No sign of the bubble bursting just yet, Jonathan Weekes moved all-in for around 120,000 over the top of Thorsten Schafer's 9,000 preflop raise. The German folded and Weekes flashed the {J-Hearts} .

Elsewhere Johan van Til moved all-in for 69,500 over the top of Martin Jacobson's 8,600 raise and the Swede was in no mood to play.

65 still remain.

Is the Hand Øever Yet?

[user46392]

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante

The hand-for-hand was delayed by some serious tanking at Table 34.

The board read {6-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {a-Hearts} when we arrived and Andreas Øe (small blind) had bet out 22,500, at least 65,000 in the pot already. Nikolas Liakos (UTG+1) thought about it for some time before raising to 77,500. Back to Øe, who spent several minutes in the tank while bored players from other tables wandered over to see what was going on. Eventually he folded, and it was time to deal the next hand.

Øe - down to 240,000
Liakos - up to 290,000
