Loeser Loses Battle of Blinds, Badziakouki Administers Coup De Grace

Level 11 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Action folded around to Manig Loeser in the small blind and he moved all-in for 110,000. Big blind Steve O’Dwyer peeked down at his cards and quickly called all-in for his last 96,000 and the cards were turned over.

Steve O’Dwyer: {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Manig Loeser: {k-Spades}{2-Clubs}

The {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop brought the German no help and the {j-Clubs} turn left him drawing dead, guaranteeing O’Dwyer the double and he climbed to 200,000 while Loeser was left with just 15,000 – 1.5 big blinds.

This found it’s way into the middle the very next hand after action folded around to Loeser on the button with Mikita Badziakouski throwing in the extras needed to make the call.

Badziakouski turned over {a-Spades}{7-Diamonds}, which was leading Loeser’s {j-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and stayed in front the whole way when the community cards ran out {3-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{2-Spades}{3-Spades}{q-Clubs}.

Loeser’s exit brings the field down to 16 so there play paused for a redraw.
