Lofberg Busts Tetart

Barry Russell

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Action folded to Simon Lofberg in the small blind who limped for 25,000. Nathan Tetart in the big blind raised to 75,000 and to his surprise was met by a shove from Lofberg for the rest of his 80,000 stack.

Tetart seemed to be in a lot pain as a pay jump was approaching, but after a couple of minutes he flicked in the rest of his stack.

Nathan Tetart: A♠6♦ All in
Simon Lofberg: A♦7♣

Although Tetart was pipped by Lofberg, he had some opportunity to chop on 8♣5♣J♠, the 7♦ on the turn came with more outs for Tetart but no dice on the K♠ river.

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Friedrich Raez moved all in from the button for 355,000. Udo Erlei called in the big blind.

Friedrich Raez: A♦4♦ All in
Udo Erlei: 9♣8♣

Erlei had Raez covered by 5,000. Raez rivered an ace across the K♥10♦3♣7♦A♠ runout and was left with a single chip.

The next hand. Claudio Di Giacomo opened to 50,000 from early position. Danut-Florin Chisu called on the button. Erlei put in his last 5,000 in the small blind and Pawel Krol defended the big blind.

He checked the Q♦10♦6♠ flop to Di Giacomo who bet 70,000. Chisu called on the button and Krol folded. The K♠ turn saw a bet of 500,000 from Di Giacomo. Krol folded and Erlei turned his hand over.

Udo Erlei: 9♦2♠ All in
Claudio Di Giacomo: A♥K♥

Erlei was drawing dead and the 8♦ river was a mere formality. Chisu bust a few hands later.

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Jason Wheeler raised to 50,000 from early position. The action folded to Antal Hamza, who moved all in from the button. Josip Vidovic, on his direct left, also shoved all in, and Wheeler snap-called.

Josip Vidovic: Q♣Q♥ All in
Antal Hamza: A♥A♦ All in
Jason Wheeler: K♠K♥

A sick cooler was underway, and Hamza shouted with excitement when the dealer put out the A♠5♣9♣ flop. The 7♦ on the turn left his opponents drawing dead, and the 6♠ on the river completed the board, giving Hamza the triple up and eliminating Vidovic.

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Christopher Brammer raised on the button to 50,000 and was met by a shove for 500,000 from Kamil Dobosz in the big blind.

Brammer asked the dealer for a count then called after chip confirmation.

Kamil Dobosz: 7♣7♠ All in
Christopher Brammer: A♣J♦

The flop of 7♥4♦10♠ gave Dobosz middle set but Brammer was drawing dead on the 10♣ turn and the inconsequential K♠ fell on the river.

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

The action folded to Malcolm Franchi in the small blind, who moved all in for the effective stack of 360,000 held by Mariusz Golinski in the big blind. Golinski checked his cards and said, "I have to call this time."

Mariusz Golinski: K♠K♥ All in
Malcolm Franchi: J♠10♣

The 9♠7♦7♥ flop gave Franchi a gutshot straight draw, but the K♦ on the turn left him drawing dead. The A♦ on the river sealed the pot for Golinski, who secured the double up.
