Rock Me, Amadeus

Wolfgang van Breukelen has just doubled up, rocking Ramazanali Abbassi in the process. "One time," commanded van Breukelen as Abbassi called his all-in, although I sense he may repeat that request later on in the event.

Anyhow, he was in commanding shape on this occasion, his {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} looking to avoid one of three outs against Abbassi's {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}. And avoid he did, the {7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{2-Hearts} board serving up that "one time" and doubling him through to 16,500. Abbassi, meanwhile, drops to 4,200.

Golovin It

With 10,000 in the pot by the turn of the {K-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {3-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} board, Dmitriy Golovin check-called a 5,000 bet from Yvoe Dellinger; Golovin proceeded to shove the {9-Hearts} river and Dellinger passed. Just as well for him -- Golovin showed him the {A-Hearts} for the nut flush.

Abbassi Out

Ramazanali Abbassi open-shoved for 4,750 and got called by Franciscus Dekkers on the button and by Alexander Volik in the small blind; the two gentlemen who were not all in checked down the board and it went to showdown.

Abbassi: {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}
Volik: {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}
Dekkers: mucked

Mr. Abbassi was out and Volik took the pot.

So Farhad, So Good

One of few Brits here in Austria, Farhad Kia, is currently on 30,000. He just eliminated a man with {A-?}{J-?} versus {J-?}{10-?}, adding that his opponent had limp-pushed for just double his raise, and that after making the call, the ace high held up.

Hlobil Betters Granberg

A mammoth blind-on-blind confrontation resulted in Jan Hlobil check-raising all in for 20,200 to a bet of 5,200 from Christoffer Granberg on the turn of the {7-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {9-Hearts} board, with 6,000 in the pot already. "You have a nine?" said Granberg, quite logically, but he was destined never to know -- he eventually passed and the pot went to Hlobil.

Golser Doubles Up

His arm's broken but his spirit's not
His arm's broken but his spirit's not
Markus Golser's broken arm has not stopped him getting his chips across the line -- he's just now more than doubled up to around 33,000.

Mikael Johansson raised to 1,125 but swiftly got out of the way when Golser reraised and then Daniel Studer went over the top of him for over 20,000. Golser called all in, and they were on their backs.

Studer: {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}
Golser: {K-Clubs} {K-Spades}

Golser: "Who had an ace?"

Board: {10-Spades} {Q-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}

Studer, meanwhile is down to 5,000.
