Folding Quads

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

There was a commotion on Table 1, so we decided to head on over and see what happened.

When we arrived, Martin Quack was all in and at risk with {a-Spades}{9-Diamonds} on a board of {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}, and Michel Abecassis had him at risk with {a-}{k-}.

Stefan Kolossow was bemoaning the fact that he folded the other two deuces in the deck - for what would've been quads - and the {6-Diamonds} completed the board.

Quack doubled, while Kolossow was still shaking his head when we left the table.

Mike Watson
Mike Watson

Hunter Frey is out, he pushed all in blind on blind with {K-Spades}{8-Spades} against Mike Watson's {A-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. The board came {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and Watson boosted his chips up to about 26,000. Seeing "SirWatts" chip up is the last thing anyone else at the table wants though.

Jorgensen Trends Back Up

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Lauri Pesonen opened to 1,200 in middle position, Theo Jorgensen called in the hijack seat, and Mario Chiang Guanilo defended his big blind. The dealer fanned {7-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}, Guanilo checked, and Pesonen continued for 1,800. Only Jorgensen called.

The turn was the {j-Spades}, Pesonen slowed down, check-calling a bet of 4,500 from Jorgensen, and a repeat jack ({j-Clubs}) completed the board.

Pesonen checked, Jorgensen flipped out 10,000 (leaving a single blue T5,000), and Pesonen tank-folded.

Abeca-ceased

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Iaran Lightbourne opened preflop to 1,100 before Michael Abecassis moved all in for not too much more. Lightbourne didn't seem too happy about it but he was in no position to fold.

Lightbourne: {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}
Abecassis: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

The board came {9-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{6-Spades}{J-Spades}{9-Spades} and the Frenchman was eliminated.

De-feenstrated

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante
Viktor Blom
Viktor Blom

Imagine you get into a raising war against Viktor Blom. Imagine you have queens. You'd imagine feeling pretty good about yourself, right?

A similar situation just happened to Rens Feenstra who was happy to put his 20,000 or so into the middle with {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} against Viktor Blom. But the latter had picked up {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs} this time and with a board of {6-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, Feenstra was already walking out of the door.

Ugh Fires, and Fires, and Fires

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Seng Ugh opened to 1,100 on the button, Nelson Vaz Da Silva defended his big blind, and the flop came {8-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}. Da Silva check-called a bet of 1,600, and then check-called another 2,850 when the {q-Diamonds} turned.

The {7-Clubs} completed the board, Da Silva checked a third time, and Ugh emptied the chamber, firing a third and final bullet worth 6,900.

Da Silva called, leading Ugh to muck his hand, and Da Silva slid his hand into the muck as well.

Two Bets, Three Bets, Four Bets, Five!

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

[Removed:480] opened for a raise in late position, Jesper Hoog three-bet to 2,400 on his direct left, and the action folded back to Divkovic. He four-bet to 4,600, prompting Hoog to go all in for 16,600.

Divkovic tanked for well over two minutes, then finally released his hand.

"Ace-king," someone at the table said in regards to Hoog's hand. "Ace-king."
