Another Double for Geilich

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Ludovic Geilich opened for 40,000 under the gun and action folded to Tom Hall in the cutoff. He three-bet to 77,000 and the button and both blinds quickly released. Geilich tanked for a bit, and called.

The flop came {8-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and Geilich shoved all in for what appeared 205,000. Hall instantly called.

Ludovic Geilich: {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}
Tom Hall: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}

The {8-Hearts} on the turn and {2-Diamonds} on the river were blanks, and Geilich doubled yet again.

Nozaki Retakes the Chip Lead

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Nozaki regained the chip lead in a pot against Juan Martin Pastor. Nozaki raised from the button to 33,000 and Pastor three-bet to 93,000.

Nozaki who thought for a while re-raised to 151,000 and that forced Pastor to fold.

Pastor moved under 1,000,000 in chips whilst Nozaki narrowly regained the chip lead by a solitary 1,000 chips over table-mate Johnny Lodden.

Christopher Frank made it 32,000 from the cutoff and Geilich just called in the big blind.

"How much are you playing?" asked the German.

"93,000" came the response from Geilich.

On a flop of {2-Spades}{6-Spades}{q-Spades} Frank bet out 19,000, Geilich shoved, and Frank called.

Frank tabled {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds} but was behind to the {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}. The board ran out {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} to ensure Geilich doubled to roughly 200,000.

The board ran out {J-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} and Geilich was drawing dead on the turn. Double up for Sammartino, short stack time for Geilich.

Money Talks with Bryn Kenney

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Bryn Kenney took down a small side event at the Season 11 EPT Grand Final, but we of course had much more important things to discuss with him. Kenney was the initiator of the €50,000 Super High Roller Turbo event, and we caught up with him to discuss the validity of this event.
