Jason Mercier, Mike McDonald, Mustapha Kanit, Natasha Barbour, Jeff Rossiter, and others head to the Dublin suburbs for a competitive trampoline dodgeball tournament. Things get heated between the four teams, as only one team can take home the mini spade trophies.
Level: 10
Blinds: 4,000/8,000
Ante: 1,000
A few minutes ago, Mustapha Kanit joked around with EPT12 Malta Main Event champion Niall Farrell. "So you are from Scotland. I will send you to the pub," with his typical Italian accent. Farrell replied with a grin on the face. "That is plan b. Plan a is to win this tournament."
It wouldn't take long for the two to clash and Farrell bet 63,000 on the 
turn with a pot of around 90,000. Kanit called from the button and the 
river saw Farrell move all in. Kanit had around 180,000 chips behind and was covered to eventually fold.

Joining the action on the , Timothy Adams led for 82,000 and table neighbor Daniel Dvoress made the call in an already loaded pot. The river came on the river and now both players checked. "A pair," Adams announced and Dvoress waved his hand to ensure his opponent turned over his cards.
Adams did so, sheepishly flipping over 
for a pair of threes only but that was still enough to win the pot with Dvoress mucking.

Niall Farrell raised from the cutoff and Pratyush Buddiga moved all in from the small blind with a rather small stack. "How much is it?" Farrell asked the dealer and once deemed to be 66,000, the Scot called. "Chop it up," Farrell said when both tabled ace rags.

Indeed both players chopped the pot with the board running out 
despite Mustapha Kanit rooting for the short stack.

In the previous hand, Kim Wittendorff paid off the valuebet of Martin Jacobson for 77,000 on the river of a board 
and then mucked when the Swede showed for trips seven.
One hand later, Willendorff raised to 18,000 from the hijack and Dario Sammartino in the cutoff as well as Jacobson in the small blind called. On the three-way flop 
, the action was checked to Sammartino and the Italian made it 23,000 to go. Jacobson called before Wittendorff check-raised to 63,000.
Only Sammartino was interested to see another card, but then mucked to a bet of 101,000 by the Dane on the 
turn.
