Ferry Janssen
Ferry Janssen

Around 550,000 was in the middle, on a board of 1072K9, in a hand between start of Day 2 chip leader Ludovic Uzan, and Ferry Janssen.

Janssen jammed for 450,000 and Uzan, who had around 800,000 behind, went into the tank. After around a minute he folded, sending a decent pot to Ferry.

Uzan has taken a bit of a hit from his 1,400,000 starting stack and will be hoping to halt his slide.

Slow-Roll from Mawick?

Level 18 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Carsten Mawick
Carsten Mawick

Dejan Prikulovic jammed from early position for 235,000, and action folded to Carsten Mawick in the big blind, playing about 800,000.

He peeked at his cards and said "Ahh I hate this hand, I really do", and asked for a count. On being informed of the amount he again informed the table about his distaste for the particular hand, but concluded "I can't fold", and made the call.

Dejan Prikulovic: 77 All in
Carsten Mawick: JJ

The entire table was astonished to see Mawick table jacks and he quipped "No of course its a call, but you don't know how much I hate this hand."

The A5429 runout contained no surprises and Prikulovic stood up to leave. "My friend I'll tell you about my history with this hand", and Prikulovic laughed and responded "It doesn't really matter now!"

Dario Marinelli: AJ All in
Magrane Esteve: 1010

"Nice pot" said a table mate - "I needed it!" responded Gaassand.

Stevanovic Takes From Robinson; Jensen's Stack from Aces versus Kings

Level 18 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Lukas Robinson
Lukas Robinson

Boban Stevanovic raised to 70,000 from the small blind and PokerNews ambassador Lukas Robinson defended in the big blind.

On the 553 flop, Stevanovic continued with a bet of 45,000, which failed to shake off Robinson.

The 8 turn was checked through to the 10 river, where Stevanovic fired out a bet of 135,000, close to half of Robinson's remaining stack. After a bit of thought, Robinson let his hand go.

While watching the hand, Jan Jensen informed PokerNews that his monster stack arose from waking up with aces against Giacomo Comitini's kings.
