Dato Ships River

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

The board read {q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{7-Spades} when we found Simon Ravnsbaek, Andrea Dato, and Christian Jeppsson engaged in the action. Ravnsbaek was first to act and he fired out a bet 38,000. Dato called to see the river and Jeppsson did the same.

The trio remained to see the board pair on the river with the {7-Hearts}. Ravnsbaek slowed with a check, prompting Dato to moved all in for approximately 120,000. Jeppsson quickly got out of the way, but Ravnsbaek went deep into the tank. A few moments passed before he ultimately opted to throw his cards into the muck. Dato pulled in the pot and now has about 270,000 in chips.

Riess Jams on Vogelsang

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Picking up with the action on a board of {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{9-Spades}, we found Christoph Vogelsang and Ryan Riess battling in heads up action. Vogelsang was first to act on the turn and he tapped the table. This allowed Riess to reach for chips and move 28,000 past the betting line. Vogelsang called.

The board completed with the {4-Hearts} and Vogelsang checked one last time. Riess wasted little time announcing that he was all in, putting Vogelsang to the test for his final 75,000 in chips. Vogelsang thought for a moment before leaning back in his chair and putting his hands on his head. After a few moments, another player at the table called the clock on Vogelsang.

It took Vogelsang another 52 seconds before he ultimately reached a decision. Vogelsang slid his cards into the muck and Riess took down the pot.

Three players including Dominik Nitsche, Mustapha Kanit, and Matthew Wood took a flop of {j-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{9-Spades} in a raised pot. Nitsche was first to act and he checked over to Kanit. Kanit bet 17,000, sending Wood deep into the tank.

After quite some time, Wood announced a raise all in for approximately 130,000 total. Nitsche quickly got out of the way and Kanit called.

Kanit: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}
Wood: {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The board finished with the {9-Clubs} on the turn and the {q-Clubs} on the river, allowing Kanit to score the knockout with queens and jacks. Wood hit the rail and Kanit brought his stack up to 790,000.

Metaal: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

The board came down {8-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{5-Hearts}, keeping Riess' ace-king high out in front. He scored the double up and now sits on about 220,000. Metaal, on the other hand, has dropped to 150,000.
