Aces Get Cracked. Kind of

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Both Andrea Dato and Benjamin Dadon checked the turn on a {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{5-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} board and saw the {2-Clubs} on the river. Dadon checked and Andrea Dato bet 12,600 into a pot of around 7,000. Dadon thought for a second before making the call. The Frenchman showed {a-Hearts}{a-Spades} but that wasn't enough to beat Dato's {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} as the two players split the pot

Calamusa Flops Full

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

After a raise to 600, several players including Pierre Calamusa and Johan Verhagen called and saw a flop of {4-Spades}{2-Spades}{2-}. A bet of 1,100 by Calamusa was called by Verhagen before a short stack shoved with {9-Spades}{8-Spades}. Calamusa flat-called and Verhagen then apparently reshoved with pocket sixes to see Calamusa snap him off with pocket fours.

Two blanks later, the two seats next to the Frenchman were empty.

Gong Gets Aces Again; Doubles Up Loosli

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

On a flop of {3-Spades}{q-Spades}{6-Clubs} Jiachen Gong's bet of 2,100 was check-raised by Sylvain Loosli to 5,200. Gong called and the two players saw the {9-Hearts} on the turn. Loosli bet 7,300 on the turn and Gong inquired as to how much Loosli had behind. Loosli lifted his arm up to reveal just 10,100 behind.

Gong took this as his cue to move all-in and Loosli snap-called. Gong showed {a-Spades}{a-Clubs} (again), but Loosli was ahead with {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}. The river was the a brick and that doubled Loosli up.

Baumann vs Calamusa

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante
Gaëlle Baumann
Gaëlle Baumann

On the heads up flop {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}, Pierre Calamusa bet 1,800 from the small blind and fellow Winamax Pro Gaelle Baumann called from the button. On the {J-Clubs} turn, Calamusa then made it 7,000 to go and Baumann released her cards. As they are sitting in seat one and nine, Calamusa leaned back and asked whether she had nine-ten suited without getting any reply.

Both have chipped up over the last hour and hold almost identical stacks.

Rolling Ronan

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Ronan Gilligan has recently been moved tables and the new home appears to be very promising. There was a small dispute with the board reading {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}{3-Hearts}{3-Spades}{9-Clubs} as floor staff had to be called. The opponent of the Irish had tossed in two blue T-5,000 chips, but apparently announced a bet of 9,000. Once that was confirmed by the floor, Gilligan made the call and his opponent just said "you win."

Gilligan then flashed his {5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for trips and that was indeed enough.

Jorgensen Chips Up

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Pre-flop Theo Jorgensen raised to 500 under the gun and got re-raised to 1,300 by his opponent. Jorgensen called and saw a {9-}{9-}{7-} flop. Both players check and on the turn of {5-} Jorgensen check raises his opponent's bet of 1,600 on the turn to 5,200. His opponent calls and together they saw the {10-} on the river. Jorgensen bet 7,000 and was called by his opponent. Jorgensen tabled {10-}{9-} and scooped the pot

Taking Another Chance

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Joining the action on the flop {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} with a decent pot in front, Chance Kornuth checked out of the small blind. Abbas Moradi then bet 4,000 and Kornuth check-raised to 9,200. Moradi wasted little time before announcing all in and Kornuth quickly let go. The American pro final-tabled three 25k High Roller events in 2016 and finished second to Mustapha Kanit here in Dublin just one day ago.
