Bad Math or Slowroll?

Zachary Korik opened from the hijack and saw Norbert Hölting three-bet all-in for 64,000 from the big blind. The American sat there for a minute or two before announcing call in a reluctant way.

He tabled {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and that prompted Sebastian Winkler to say, "What a slow-roller!"

"It's not, I don't know Math!" defended Korik.

By now Hölting had opened {2-Spades}{2-Hearts} and was happy to see the flop come {3-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} to make him a boat.

Heinz Kamutzki now piped in and said to Korik, "That's what you get for it".

The board ran out {9-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and as we left Korik was still talking about how he can't count.

Aces vs. Aces

From under the gun plus one, William Thorson limped in. On the button, Bahadir Kilickeser limped and then Eric Vuissoz completed from the small blind.Søren Reffstrup was in the big blind and raised to 48,000. After a couple minutes of deep thought, Thorson called. The other two players folded.

The flop came down {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and both players checked to see the {3-Spades} come out on the turn. Reffstrup checked and Thorson bet 42,000. Reffstrup check-raised all in for about 125,000 and Thorson called.

Both players tabled aces. Reffstrup held the {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} and Thorson the {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}. The river completed the board with the {J-Hearts} and the two of them chopped up the pot.

Martin Jacobson Eliminated

Martin Jacobson has been eliminated from the EPT Berlin main event at the hands of Vladimir Geshkenbein. At the last chip count Jacobson had 721,000 chips but something must have gone horribly wrong as we just saw him open-shove his last 70,000 from middle position and find a Geshkenbein shaped caller in the cutoff.

Jacobson: {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}
Geshkenbein: {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

"Anyone fold a six?" asked Geshkenbein,

"Yeah," replied Florian Dohnert

"You're drawing to one out," informed Geshkenbein, "Good luck, you're going to need it!"

Jacobson half-joking stuck his middle finger up at his soon to be executioner, prompting a giggle from everyone seated at the table.

The board ran out {9-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and with that Jacobson's tournament has come to an end and we have less than 60 players remaining in the main event.

MacPhee Smashes a Double Through Selbst

Kevin MacPhee
Kevin MacPhee

Team PokerStars Pro Vanessa Selbst and EPT Berlin Season 6 champion Kevin MacPhee just had a big preflop clash on the feature table that saw MacPhee double to 870,000.

According to Anton Wigg, Selbst raised to 17,000 and then MacPhee made it 37,000 from the button. Selbst made it 86,000 and MacPhee five-bet to 131,000 with 294,000 behind. Selbst jammed all in and MacPhee went into the tank. He thought for about 10 minutes before finally making the call.

"Do you have ace-jack?" asked Selbst.

"No, ace-nine," responded MacPhee.

The look on Selbst's face was along the lines of "what the heck is going on here" as she turned over the {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}. MacPhee's hand was the {A-Clubs}{9-Hearts}.

The flop, turn and river ran out {A-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{A-Spades} and MacPhee's 425,000 turned into 870,000 with the double. Selbst dropped back to 525,000 or so and was left shaking her head a bit.

[Removed:287] Takes Down Pot With An Unlikely Hand

[Removed:284] has just picked up a nice little pot after making a call from the big blind with the monster that is {9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}.

Philipp Gruissem opened to 16,000 from under the gun and the action folded to Jan Heitmann in the hijack. he peeled back his cards, took a peak and made the call. The action then found its way to [Removed:287] in the big blind and he put in the extra 8,000 chips.

Flop: {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds} - The draw heavy board was checked by all three players.

Turn: {5-Clubs} - [Removed:287] checked with what can be described a s a karate chop action, and both of his opponents checked behind.

River: {4-Hearts} - Guess what they did here? That's correct. They all checked.

Gruissem turned over {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, [Removed:287] {9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and Heitmann mucked. [Removed:287] took down the pot with his pair of five, nine-kicker.
