Vrakas Wins

Level 6 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The action folded around to the button who made it 3,700 to go. Borge Sandsgaard of Norway in the small blind made the call before Georgios Vrakas of Greece in the big blind squeezed it up to 17,000 total. Only the Norwegian made the call.

The {J-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{7-Hearts} saw Sandsgaard check-call 14,000, but he wasn't quite ready to commit his last 42,500 on the {3-Diamonds} turn after Vrakas moved all in.

Sandsgaard revealed the {J-Spades} and asked Vrakas to show a king. But the Greek player did not comply and instead quietly scooped the pot.

Michaelis Finds the Double

Level 5 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

WSOP bracelet holder Paul Michaelis has turned up to join the High Roller crowd, and he just found a crucial double with the mother of all poker hands — pocket aces.

Michaelis got his last 20,000 in with {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades} on a {4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{10-Spades}{J-Hearts} board and was called by an opponent holding {A-Hearts}{J-Spades} and drawing to a mere two outs. The river was the {9-Hearts}, and the German scored the double.

The Rich Get Richer

Level 5 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Anestis Anagnostidis raised from first position, and Norbert Berent behind him made it 5,600 total. Fabian Gumz made the call on the button before Pasquale Braco raised to 13,500 out of the small blind. Anagnostidis wanted no part in it and folded, and with the action back on Berent he five-bet to 23,200. Only Braco came along for the {5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop, where the Italian check-called 12,000.

Braco checked again on the {4-Hearts} turn, and this time the bet was 30,000 from Berent. The Italian gave it quite a think before finally releasing his cards into the muck, and Berent added another small tower to his castle of chips.
