The Lesser-Spotted Five-Bet Back Raise All-in

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Chino Rheem opened to 2,600 preflop and Keith Hawkins made the call, as did three players behind him. The big blind Gerald Karlic then three-bet to 12,200. Rheem opted for a four-bet to 27,600 and Hawkins then five-bet all for about 100,000.

Everyone folded back to Rheem who tanked for about two minutes before giving up the hand. Hawkins increased his stack by 50% without a showdown.

Sowa Loses Flip

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Gereon Sowa is still up for the day but he was already at 70,000 in chips and just lost some of the profit. Michael Telker raised to 2,600 and the player in the small blind moved all in for 18,100. Sowa asked Telker for his stack size before moving all in himself and the American folded quickly.

It was a flip with the {A-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} of Sowa against {5-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} of the short stack, the board ran out {5-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}.

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
David Peters
David Peters

David Peters got moved to table 29 only a few minutes ago as there were two vacant seats after the recent eliminations. He three-bet shoved for 15,500 with {A-} {6-} and initial raiser Michael Telker called with {Q-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} to improve with the community cards. Peters was about to register for the €1,000 Turbo Event straight away when he passed by.

Sjavik Heading Up

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Veteran Norwegian player Jan Sjavik is building on his excellent finish from yesterday. He just checked back the river of an {A-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{K-Hearts} board with {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}, beating Nicky Roeg's {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} for a decently-sized pot.
