Age Spets (left) locks horns with Peter Willers Jepsen (right)
On one table a "situation" was building between two fast growing Scandinavian chipstacks. Norway's Åge Spets was showing strength for a good while and sat with some 55k in chips. Two to his left sat Peter Willers Jepsen of Denmark, a high-stakes online player of some repute according to Scandinavian journalists in the press room. He, too, was sporting over 50k. Spets bet out 2k before the flop and Jepsen announced "I will have to raise". He threw in a handful of blue chips each worth 1,000. Jepsen declared that he would need at least AQ to make that raise. Spets was not deterred and retorted "I will have to call."
The flop came down . Spets checked and Jepsen slid something like 10k into the middle. Spets revealed AK offsuit as he folded. Jepsen showed 88 to show the 10 and 9 didn't put him off his stride.
A big stride it was too, taking him to over 70k in chips and into the chip lead.
