Prigent Bluffs It Off

Frank Visser

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Catching the action on a completed board of 2♠A♥4♠10♥J♦, Yngve Lommerud checked from under the gun to Stanislas Prigent in the hijack. Prigent then slid in a pot-sized bet of 34,500, the vast majority of his stack.

Lommerud announced a call after some thought, and Prigent instantly mucked his cards, opting not to show. Lommerud was shipped the massive pot, while Prigent would lose the 2,300 he had left himself not much later.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Derek McDonald opened the action with a raise to 1,500 under the gun. Carl Engdhal called in the cutoff before Michael Dwyer squeezed in a three-bet to 6,000 on the button.

McDonald quickly four-bet to 16,500, forcing Engdhal out of the pot. Dwyer responded by moving all in for 59,600, however, sending McDonald into the tank.

After a few minutes, McDonald opted to muck his cards and forfeit the pot to Dwyer.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Catching the action on a completed board of 5♠10♦8♣K♦Q♣ and with 36,500 in the pot, Jorge Rios moved all in from the big blind. Francois Vuille, under the gun, had been put at risk for his stack of 29,600, and he took some moments before he called off.

Rios tabled A♠A♦ for an overpair, but Vuille had rivered a set of queens with Q♠Q♦ for the winning hand.

"Ace-jack didn't make a lot of sense, but I was still a bit scared," Vuille admitted as he raked in the double-up.

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Ken Denning in the small blind, Parker Talbot in the big blind, and Edward Dunphy in the hijack went to a flop of 9♠Q♦J♦. Denning checked to Talbot, who placed the minimum bet of 800. Dunphy called before Denning folded.

The 2♠ turn saw Talbot toss in a massive over-bet of 12,000. A perplexed Dunphy eventually let go of his cards, after which Talbot allowed his opponent to table one of his cards.

Dunphy chose the 10♠. "Phew, the good one," Talbot joked as he was awarded the pot.

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Adrian Mack checked the K♣3♦Q♣J♣ turn over to Ian Frazer under the gun, who bet 6,500. Mack then raised to 15,000, to which Frazer responded by moving all in for around 40,000.

Mack was displeased with the situation, but he made a quick call to put Frazer at risk.

Ian Frazer: K♥Q♠ All in
Adrian Mack: 7♣6♣

Mack's flush had a big lead over Frazer's two pair, and he eliminated his opponent when the 10♣ river left Frazer unimproved.

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

With about 23,000 in the pot, Sebastian Crane in the big blind and David Masters in the cutoff got all their chips in the middle on the 3♣5♦4♦ flop, with Masters' stack of 86,000 being at risk.

David Masters: A♠A♥ All in
Sebastian Crane: K♠K♣

Masters celebrated as his aces remained best on the 10♥8♣ runout, and he raked in a gargantuan double-up to be among the leaders in the room.
