One Table Of Doom Breaks

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

With so many top class poker players in the field today there are many tables that we could give the "Table of Doom" moniker but there is one less in Hyatt's ballroom because Table 38 has now broken.

This was the home to Chris Moorman, David Sonelin, Ashley Mason, Adam Levy and Team PokerStars Pro Viktor Blom but now they have been separated and dispersed around the room.

Updated Chip Counts

Boeree's Wheels Coming Off

Liv Boeree didn't look too happy after Jason Wheeler took her off a hand on the river of an {8-Hearts}{j-Spades}{10-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} board.

She defended her big blind and then check-raised to 2,100 after Wheeler had continued for 750. He called and she went on to bet 2,800 on the turn, and 4,600 on the river. The Team PokerStars Pro had 18,500 behind after her river bet but was unable to call when the American shoved on her.

Mickey Petersen Doubles Up

Team PokerStars Pro Online Mickey Petersen has started to rebuild his stack after doubling up through Jacques Quaiss.

The young Dane had opened to 500 from early position and when the action folded around to Quaiss in the cutoff he stuck in a raise to 2,000. Petersen then paused for a short while before moving all in for what turned out to be 5,950 in total. Quaiss quickly called and the cards were flipped over.

Quaiss: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}
Petersen: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

Flop: {4-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}

Turn:{k-Clubs}

river:{a-Clubs}

With that Petersen doubles up but he still has plenty of work to do if he is to catch up to the chip leaders in this tournament.

Chips from the Casino Side

Denis Noykin's Raise Commands Maximum Respect

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Australian Timothy Mitchell opened the betting with a raise to 525 from early position. The player to his direct left got out of the way but Andreas Blumenthal made the call. The next two players to act folded but Denis Noykin, on the button, made it 1,700 to play.

The raise initially looked larger but that is because he decided to use a handful of green 25 denomination chips to make his raise with. Whether or not that was his intention it worked because the two active players in the hand folded and he won the pot without any contest.

Jaka Runner-Runner Towards a Big Stack

Faraz Jaka is a lucky boy after he made a running inside straight against Jean Marie Vandeborne.

Jaka three-bet pre-flop and then check-called bets on the flop and turn before min-raising the river. The final board read {k-}{9-}{3-}{7-}{j-}.

Vandeborne called on the river with pocket jacks for a set. Jaka had got there with ten-eight though and scooped the pot. Vandeborne was left with just 2,500 chips.
