Hansen Forces Fold

Frank Visser

Level 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Sindre Hansen made a raise to 100,000 under the gun and the action folded to Peter Jorgne in the big blind, who made the call.

Jorgne checked on the 7♠A♥3♥ flop and called the subsequent 150,000 that Hansen put out.

The 4♥ turn was then checked by both players before Hansen bet 450,000 on the Q♥ river after Jorgne had checked. Jorgne quickly let his hand go and surrendered the pot to his opponent.

Aleksejs Ponakovs opened to 200,000 from the button with 10♠6♠ and Lorenzo Arduini defended the big blind with Q♠J♥.

Both players missed the A♦K♥3♣ flop but Arduini had outs to Broadway, and he check-called for 115,000 before the A♥ turn checked through to the 10♣ river.

Arduini bet 175,000 with his straight and Ponakovs paid him off after using up a time bank.

Level 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

In a limped pot between the blinds, Sindre Hansen led out for 100,000 on a flop of K♠J♥A♣ and Ami Barer called.

The turn was the 2♥ and Hansen bet 325,000. Barer again called and the K♥ fell on the river. Both players then checked and Hansen showed A♦2♦.

"Hey," Barer cried out as he turned over A♠4♠, discovering that Hansen's two pair had been counterfeited on the river and they chopped the pot.

The next hand, Hansen raised to 225,000 on the button and Eric Afriat called in the big blind.

The flop came A♣5♦7♥ and Hansen continued for 150,000. Afriat called and the 3♥ turn was checked.

Afriat led out for 130,000 on the J♣ river and Hansen called. Afriat showed Q♠7♠ for a pair of sevens, but Hansen had J♥9♠ for a rivered pair of jacks to win the pot.

"Ugly. Why would you do that?" Afriat said.

Level 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Ami Barer raised to 210,000 from the cutoff and got blinds Barny Boatman and Peter Jorgne to come along with him.

All three players then checked through the J♠9♣8♠ flop before Boatman checked again on the 6♣ turn. Jorgne fired 400,000 chips and Barer made the call, while Boatman quickly folded.

Jorgne then sized up to 1,100,000 on the 4♠ river, and this was enough to make Barer lay down his hand as well.

Level 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Ami Barer raised to 210,000 under the gun and Sindre Hansen called in the big blind.

Hansen led out for 160,000 on the 10♣4♦7♥ flop and Barer raised to 775,000. Hansen quickly folded.

The next hand, Barny Boatman raised to 200,000 in the cutoff, Peter Jorgne three-bet to 650,000 on the button, and Boatman called.

The flop came Q♠7♣2♥ and Boatman snap-folded once Jorgne continued for 575,000.

A tournament official came to the table to warn them that they were significantly behind the pace of the feature table and that the other table would wait for them to play a few more hands before continuing. "What's the point of having these, then," Boatman said as he picked up his time banks.

Action folded to Farid Jattin who moved all in for 1,740,000 in the small blind. David Kaufmann in the big blind tanked for a moment but eventually decided to call.

Farid Jattin: A♠5♥
