Ramella Gets Shorter

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

On a flop of {q-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, Felipe Salgado bet 60,000 after Jorge Ramella had checked to him and the call followed. The {k-Clubs} fell on the turn and Ramella checked once more. Salgado now bet 180,000 and Ramella quickly folded.

Soon after, Ramella opened to 60,000 and Shannon Shorr three-bet to 200,000. After short consideration, Ramella sent his cards into the muck and dropped to around 21 big blinds.

Lu Over Ten Cate

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Jonas ten Cate raised to 65,000 from under the gun and Yunye Lu defended his big blind.

They both checked through the {q-Diamonds} on the turn to the {7-Hearts} on the river. Lu took over the initiative and led out for 125,000. Ten Cate flicked in a chip for the call and Lu tabled {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs} for the rivered two pair. That was more than enough for Ten Cate to have to pay up the full amount.

PSPC 2020: Daryl Inglis might need a bigger jar

Level 23 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Platinum Pass Winner Daryl Inglis
Platinum Pass Winner Daryl Inglis

After serving 20 years in the Canadian military, including deployments to Bosnia and Afghanistan, 39-year-old Daryl Inglis received a medical discharge in 2015.

He turned to skiing, surfing, kayaking and mountain biking to occupy his time, but now aged 43, he felt something was missing. It turned out that poker, a game he’d been introduced to some nine years ago, was the perfect outlet.

“About 15 years into my military career some friends invited me to play a $20 tournament, and I busted first,” Inglis tells PokerStars Blog the morning after winning a Platinum Pass to the PokerStars Players No Limit Hold’em Championship (PSPC) 2020 worth €26,466 (we’ll get to that in a moment).

“I went back the next week, and busted first again. This happened for about a month, so I told myself I have to get better,” he continues. “I set up a PokerStars account, but I’ve been a losing player online, down about $800 over eight years. But when it came to live poker, I decided to put $40 in a jar and said ‘this is only for poker’. I use it to buy-in, and whatever I win goes back in. Six weeks later I had $1,000, so that showed me I was making good decisions.”
