It's yo-yo time for Maurice Whelan, he opened for 33,000 with about 70,000 behind and Declan Connolly pushed. Whelan tanked for ages before calling with {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

{2-Spades}

, a strange raise-induce we thought but he was ahead, barely against {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{K-Clubs}

.

The board came {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{10-Clubs}

{5-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

to the delight of the Connolly fan club and Whelan was left with 6,000.

This went in next hand where his {K-?}

{K-?}

{9-?}

held in a three-way pot and he trebled through. He then chopped {A-?}

{A-?}

{5-?}

against

{A-?}

{6-?}

to win a few more antes.

After this he was all-in with {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

against Tom Hanlon's {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

and somehow manage to win when the board came {2-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

{Q-Clubs}

{3-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{5-Hearts}

before getting all-in again with {K-?}

{K-?}

{Q-?}

against

{K-?}

{Q-?}

for another chopped pot.

He's now back up to about 85,000.
