Jarvis Jolted

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Matt Jarvis had a stack of about 50,000 and picked up {A-}{A-}. Sounds good so far, right? Then he got his entire stack in against an opponent with more chips and with {K-}{K-}. It looked like a probable double-up to six figures for Jarvis, until a third king hit the turn. Jarvis was unable to recover, eliminated in the middle of Level 8.

Bergeron Slips

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Craig Bergeron
Craig Bergeron

Craig Bergeron opened the pot with a raise to 1,800 in middle position. The player in the cutoff went all in for about 16,000 and action folded back to Bergerson. He quickly called and tabled {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. He was racing against {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and unfortunately came up second best when the board ran out {J-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades}{3-Clubs}{5-Spades}.

Bergeron: Down to roughly 46,000.

Random Assortment of Chip Counts

PokerStars Team Pro Doubles

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Naujoks doubles.
Naujoks doubles.

PokerStars Team Pro Sandra Naujoks was all in preflop moments ago holding {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}. She was racing against her opponent's {a-}{k-} and while there was a king on the flop an eight also popped up on the {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{8-Spades} board. The {4-Diamonds} on the turn effectively ended the hand and after the {a-Clubs} rivered Naujoks was shipped the pot, doubling her stack to 68,000 chips.

Bach Bests Habernig

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

David Bach was under the gun and raised to 1,525 and received a single caller in the form of young Matthias Habernig in the hijack. Bach continuation bet 2,000 on the {9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{J-Hearts} flop and again Habernig called.

Both players checked the {10-Clubs} turn and the {3-Spades} hit the river. Bach bet 3,700, Habernig called, and Bach showed {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. Habernig, who dropped to 26,000, could only muck as Bach raked in the pot and increased his stack to 21,000.

With that pot, Hachem increased his stack to about 54,000.
