A short-stacked Mal Hagan got the last of his chips in with ![]()
and was up against Martin Godsk and his ![]()
. The board would run out ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
and Godsk would manage to avoid the diamond flush draw that Hagan picked up to eliminate him in 19th place.
Matt Sundberg raised to 40,000 preflop and Simon Deadman three-bet to 84,000. On the ![]()
![]()
flop, the Brit check-called 130,000 and put his best Hollywood performance in to get his opponent all in after checking the
turn.
Sundberg walked into the trap with ![]()

. The meaningless
river completed the board and Deadman is our by far chip leader at the moment.
Dmitry Kataev opened the action with a raise to 42,000 and Michael Wang moved all in from the button for 506,000. Damian Salas asked for a count and then moved all in himself to scare off Kataev.
Wang: ![]()
Salas: ![]()
The pocket pair of Wang held on the ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
and he celebrated that with the words "sick hold."
We didn't catch the preflop and flop action, but on the ![]()
![]()
![]()
turn, Andy Spears bet 140,000 and Damian Salas moved all in. Spears had less than 350,000 chips behind and eventually made the call with ![]()
. Once he saw the ![]()
of his opponent, he let go a deep sigh and the words "what is that for a turn."
Only an ace on the river could save him but the
wasn't any help to see him depart in 21st place.
After the previous huge pot that he lost, Bradley Yazici was all in from early position for 77,000 chips and Kitty Kuo called from the big blind. Kuo had two live cards with the ![]()
against ![]()
. The ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
board gave some sweat but ultimately the better hand preflop held up.
We got to the table and Alex Goulder was all in and at risk against Martin Godsk and in need of a lot of help as he was dominated. Goulder held ![]()
and Godsk ![]()
. The board would run out ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()

Jorn Walthaus and Bradley Yazici would exchange raises until the two were both all in and it was Walthaus who was at risk with ![]()
and he was racing against Yazici who held ![]()
. It would be a race that Walthaus would win when the board ran out ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
. That moved Walthaus's stack up to 950,000 while Yazici was crippled and sitting with just 90,000 after the hand.
Tommie Janssen was the chip leader after the first day and already had reason to cheer earlier today when the Netherlands won 2-1 at the very last minute to advance to the quarter finals of the World Cup in Brazil.
However, his poker day ended within the first five minutes of play. He got it in with ![]()
against the ![]()
of over-night chip leader Simon Deadman and was unable to improve.
