Van Der Merwe Over Haxton

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Isaac Haxton and Neil Van Der Merwe took a flop of {a-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts} in a raised pot. Haxton checked the flop and Van Der Merwe fired out a bet of 3,400. Haxton called to see fourth street.

The turn was the {5-Diamonds} and Haxton tapped the table for a second time. Van Der Merwe did the same and the board paired on the river with the {a-Clubs}. Haxton bet 6,800, Van Der Merwe called, and Haxton showed {q-Spades}{8-Spades} for aces and eights. They were no good, however, as Van Der Merwe held {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for trip aces. With this hit, the PokerStars Team Online Pro's stack has dropped to about 83,000.

De Meulder Chips Up

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Team PokerStars Pro Matthias De Meulder just saw Viktors Vorobjovs raise from the hijack to 3,400 and he responded by three-betting to 8,800 from the button.

The action folded back to Vorobjovs who made it 18,700, and De Meulder called.

The flop brought out {K-Hearts}{2-Spades}{Q-Clubs} and both players took their time before ultimately checking. On the turn the {Q-Hearts} hit and Vorobjovs checked again, which lead De Meulder to betting 19,500. This was enough to take the pot down and De Meulder now sits on about 117,000.

Full Double for The Rhino

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Govert Metaal limped in under the gun and action folded to Adam Milewski who made it 5,300 from middle position. After a couple of folds it was Reino "The Rhino" Rasmussen who pushed all in from the small blind for 33,600. The big blind and Metaal quickly folded, Milewski instantly called.

Reino Rasmussen: {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}
Adam Milewski: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}

The flop came {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and Rasmussen fist pumped a little. The {2-Diamonds} on the turn and {9-Diamonds} on the river were blanks and Rasmussen found the much needed double up.

Samuel Chartier
Samuel Chartier

Denys Shafikov raised to 3,200 from early position and Canadian Sam Chartier three-bet all in for 28,400 from the cutoff. The action folded back to Shafikov, who tanked for a while before making the call.

Shafikov: {A-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Chartier: {A-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {Q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and the nine on the flop made an end to Chartier's tournament run.
