Dvoress Doubles Through Blom

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Short-stack Daniel Dvoress has just doubled up through the recently arrived Full Tilt Poker Professional Viktor Blom. Dvoress managed to river a jack with {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} on a {2-Clubs}{3-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{J-Clubs} board against Blom's {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}. Daniel Colman, serial winner of anything with 'poker' in the title, has also just bought.

Mercier Returns

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

It didn’t take long for Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier to change his mind. He’s back in the game and sitting at Steve O’Dwyer’s table but seems to have lost a few chips already and made a frustrated fold when he was shoved on.

O’Dwyer then asked Mercier if he was going to Macau next month. He said he wasn’t as although he had never been it was too far to go. O’Dwyer said he had won a package and was going as are Paul Newey and Team PokerStars Pro Online Isaac Haxton.

Haxton was asking Newey about wiring money there but his thoughts soon turned to whether there would be any problem getting money out.

Wrong Direction For Niall

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Philippe D`Auteuil has done a bit of damage to Niall Farrell’s stack in the last half hour. Not long ago D`Auteuil was in the small blind and on the river of a board reading {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}{k-Spades}{j-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} and made a bet of 11,000. Farrell flicked in the call and was met with the {10-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for a rivered straight.

A while later on the flop of {8-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{2-Diamonds} Farrel check-called a 4,600 bet from D`Auteuil but on the turn card {9-Diamonds} a 14,500 bet saw him give it up.

It's game over for Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier, he was all in preflop having reshoved out of the blinds with {A-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} against Yann Dion's {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}. The board came {7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{2-Clubs} and Mercier was eliminated, he was not too keen about re-entering tonight but he can still enter before 11.45am tomorrow.
