Cazemier

Sick Call

[user50492]

There were already 10,000 chips in the middle from pre-flop action. Christina Orth was in the small blind, Allan Baekke was UTG and Tung Huynh was UTG +1.

The flop read {A-Spades}

.

It was checked around to Tung who bet 6,000. Christina thought for a short while and folded, but Allan Baekke made the call.

The turn was {6-Clubs}

and Allan checked to Tung who then moved all in for 19,200. Allan thought for a while then said: "I am going to make a sick call, I call," and then Tung had his {A-Hearts}

turned over instantly. Allan was drawing dead with {K-Spades}

.

Tung more than doubled up to 63,000.

Steal, Re-Steal, Re-Re-Steal

[user25067]

If there's any hallmark of the way play has proceeded over the last couple of hours, it's the steal/re-steal. Much of the action is happening pre-flop, with late position raises constantly being re-raised from the button or the blinds by the aggressive Scandinavian players that are dominating the field.

"It's impossible to put in a small raise at my table. Someone will always come over the top!" said a short-stacked Steve Frezer at the last break.

Squeeze?

[user50492]

A big hand was in progress as I passed Lars Madsen's table. There were three players to the flop with 14,000 already in the middle . The cards in the middle were {J-Hearts}

. The UTg player bet out 7,500 which after a short dwell Lars Madsen called. The player on the button, Patrik Andersson then raised to 20,000. The other two folded sharpish and Patrik rakes in a nice pot.

But Did He Have the Case Ten?

[user25067]

Raymond Landaas opened the pot for 4,000 and Tom Larsen called from the small blind. The flop was {10-Hearts}

. Larsen checked, Landaas bet 8,000 and Larsen called. The turn was the {7-Spades}

. Larsen checked again, and this time, Landaas checked behind. The river was the {10-Spades}

. Larsen bet 18,000 and Landaas took the hit and folded. He's still healthy with nearly 60,000 in chips and was left wondering if Larsen did indeed have the case ten.
