H-84: $25,500 Super High Roller

Day 1 Started

Welcome to GGPoker Spring Festival H-84: $25,500 Super High Roller

Fedor Holz

The high-stakes action of the GGPoker Spring Festival continues with more big buy-in events today, one of which is the upcoming H-84: $25,500 Super High Roller, set to begin just after 3 p.m. EDT.

Already, tens of millions of dollars have been awarded in the festival, and this event will see at least another $2 million added to that tally thanks to the guarantee posted.

Everyone will get 100,000 in their starting stacks with blinds kicking off at 250/500/60. Levels will be 15 minutes apiece the whole way through, and as usual, unlimited reentries will be permitted. Roughly five hours of late registration will be open, so there will be plenty of time for numbers to swell beyond the 11 currently registered for the start of play.

Some of those already committed include such stars as Adrian Mateos, David Peters, Juan Pardo, Chris Rudolph, Sami Kelopuro and GGPoker's own Fedor Holz.

Holz Struggling

Level 1 : 250/500, 60 ante

Fedor Holz is stuck in reverse early. He put in a squeeze raise to 6K from the button and called a four-bet to 18K from early opener Marius Gierse. Gierse barreled small on the flop and turn, with Holz folding to the latter, on {8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{2-Spades}.

Again, Holz three-bet from the button, this time to 4,250 when Matthias Eibinger opened to 1,250 in middle position. Again, he faced a four-bet to 12,750 and called. The flop checked through, then Eibinger check-called 8,821 on {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}. Eibinger checked again and called 14,393 on the {9-Spades} river.

Holz could only show {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for air, losing to {k-Spades}{10-Spades} for a straight.

Lucky Holz Wins Four-Bet Pot

Level 2 : 300/600, 75 ante

In the last hand at the previous level, Fedor Holz opened to 1,100 in the hijack, big blind Mike Watson made it 5,700, and Holz came back with 11,800. Watson peeled and check-called a small bet of 5,068 on the {k-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. Both players checked the {10-Hearts} and Watson shoved for Holz's remaining 21K on the {2-Spades} river.

Holz quickly called with {a-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for trips and he'd cracked {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}.
