Sending Our Best Rregaards to the Bubble

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

A very brief raising war saw Dennis Bjerregaard all in and called by Ørjan Skommo; it took a while to run it, though, as hands were still going on at other tables and the two players had to sit there, their cards not yet turned over, for some minutes. A crowd formed around the table. "Come on," said a cheerful Jonathan Weekes, "The suspense is killing us."

Eventually all the other tables finished their hands, and Bjerregaard and Skommo turned their cards over. A classic race.

Bjerregaard: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Skommo: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

Flop: {4-Spades}{6-Spades}{9-Spades} giving Skommo a flush draw as well as overcards

Turn: {k-Clubs} making Skommo a pair of kings and leaving Bjerregaard with exactly one out

River: not that one out, but the {9-Diamonds}

With that, Bjerregaard suddenly became the most popular man in the room, yet also the unhappiest. Ladies and gentlemen, we are In The Money.
