"Thought I Had Pocket Fives"

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

With around 4,000 in the pot and a board reading {5-Spades}{j-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{a-Clubs}, EPT12 Malta champ Niall Farrell bet 4,500 and received a call from his lone opponent.

Farrell confidently slapped over his cards... the {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}.

"Thought I had pocket fives," he said with all sincerity. The rest of the table got a good laugh and commented they all thought he did too with how confidently he tabled his hand.

"I almsot mucked you were so confident," the winner of the hand admitted. Despite losing the hand, Farrell joined in the laughter.

Trip Kings Good For Igor

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Istvan Birizdo was under the gun and he raised to 600. Two players folded, and Tsymbal Igor called. Marco Caza called in the big blind and the dealer spread the {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} flop. Caza checked, Birizdo bet 1,100, and Igor raised to 3,000. This raise folded out Caza, but Birizdo called.

Both players checked the {9-Spades} turn and then the {K-Hearts} river, Igor showing {K-Clubs}{q-Clubs} and beating the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} of Birizdo.

Cowboys for Vamplew

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

With 7,000 already in the pot and a board reading {j-Spades}{6-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}, Alexandre Amiel checked from the big blind and David Vamplew bet 4,000 from middle position. Amiel made the call and then both players checked the {10-Clubs} river. Amiel tabled the {9-Spades}{3-Spades} for missed spades but a pair of nines. Unfortunately for him, it was no good as Vamplew held the {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts} in the hole.

Team PokerStars Pro Johnny Lodden Shoves the River

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante
Johnny Lodden
Johnny Lodden

We're not sure how action unfolded, but when we happened upon the table of Team PokerStars Pro Johnny Lodden we saw him with the all-in triangle out in front of him along with 6,350 in chips. With around 6,500 in the pot and a board reading {3-Hearts}{a-Spades}{j-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, France's Bertrand Guenoun was debating what to do.

Eventually Guenoun made the call with the {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} for trip aces, but it was no good as Lodden had rivered a flush with the {6-Hearts}{8-Hearts}.

Geilich Calls It Off with Queens

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

Just before the last break, there was over 15,000 pulled into the middle and a board reading {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{j-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. The player on the button, Spain's Katsuhiro Muto, had the all-in triangle out in front of him along with 19,525. Ludovic Geilich, who was in the big blind, was in the tank debating what to do with his stack of approximately 18,400.

Eventually Geilich called off and Muto stood from his chair and tabled the {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}. Geilich flinched and then showed his {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs} was dominated. The {8-Hearts} river gave both players a flush, but of course Muto's was best to send Geilich to the rail.
