Lappin Left Out in the Cold

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

PokerNews caught up with David K.Lappin after he busted a short while ago.

His day was going really well at the second break when he reached a day-high 65,000, but from there not a lot went right for the Irishman.

He had is aces cracked by a Spanish opponent holding five-six off suit in a four-bet pot. Then just before the break a five-bet pot left him crippled.

There was a cut-off raise to 825 that K.Lappin three-bet to 1,775 from the button. The small blind then decided to cold four-bet to 4,200 and this was enough to force out the original raiser but not k.Lappin who five-bet all in for 28,000 with ace-king. His opponent called all for 24,000 with pocket tens and held on a queen high board.

After the dinner break he shoved twice and was called the second time. His pocket nines were no match for an opponents aces.

Duhamel on the Double

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante
Jonathan Duhamel
Jonathan Duhamel

Jonathan Duhamel has doubled up through Antoine Labat after shoving on the turn in a hand.

They were heads-up and 19,000 had made it into the middle when the board read {2-Spades}{10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. The Team PokerStars Pro shoved for his last 13,900 with {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades} and was called by the Frenchman holding {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}.

The river came {k-Hearts} and Duhamel raked in the chips.

Who Needs a Safety Annette?

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

In a four-way pot, the flop of {6-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} was checked around to Barny Boatman who bet 1,500. Rudy Blondeau called in the big blind, Annette Obrestad called from UTG and Steve Jelinek folded.

The {2-Diamonds} saw Blondeau check, Obrestad lead for 3,500 and the Hendon Mobster quickly got out of the way. Blondeau made the call again to see the {3-Hearts} on the river before opting to check a third time. Obrestad pushed out 8,000 and this time it was enough to make Blondeau fold.

Nielsen and Stuer Getting in On

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

Rasmus Nielsen and Julian Stuer have just had a little tete-a-tete and it was the Dane left nursing the bruises.

We caught the action with Rasmus Nielsen in the hijack with a bet of 4,150 in front of him and Stuer was making it 6,725 from the small blind. Nielsen made the call and the pair were soon staring at a flop of {J-Diamonds} {10-Spades} {2-Hearts}. Stuer made a teeny-weeny c-bet of 4,000 and Nielsen made the call.

The turn card was the {9-Hearts} and Stuer dumped 20,500 over the line (leaving himself 400 behind) and Nielsen looked sick. After a momentary pause he mucked his hand and Stuer took the chips.

Nielsen ~ 19,000.

Selbst With the Check Raise; Visser Joins The Table

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

The board was showing {J-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {5-Hearts} when Vanessa Selbst check-raised Georgios Theodorou. The price to pay was 8,200 and he duly paid it. The turn card brought the {5-Spades} out to play and a 9,400 bet sent the chips tumbling into the direction of Selbst.

Ruben Visser has been moved to the Selbst table and is sitting on an impressive looking 80,000.
