Silz Gets Jammed on Twice

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

On the {10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop, Bo Rundström and Maximilian Silz both invested 80,000 each and the {J-Diamonds} on the turn saw a quick all in by the Swede. Silz folded and was shown the {2-Diamonds}.

Right after, Anders Bisgard raised and Silz three-bet to 85,000, which the Dane called. Bisgard checked the {K-Spades}{10-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop and Silz bet 40,000, Bisgard also moved all in and that forced yet another fold from Silz.

[Removed:431] raised to 30,000 from the cutoff, Erik Scheidt shoved all in from the button for 128,000 in total. The players in the blind folded so action was back on Steinfeuer who called.

Erik Scheidt: {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}
[Removed:431]: {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}

The board ran out {2-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{5-Clubs}{10-Spades} - Scheidt's jacks gave him the better two pair and the double up.

Rebei's Bluff Goes Wrong to Vault Jaksland Into the Lead

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Peter Jaksland
Peter Jaksland

Karim Rebei raised to 35,000 in the hijack and Peter Jaksland called in the cutoff. On the {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop, Rebei continued for 52,000 and Jaksland called before the Algerian shoved the {8-Hearts} turn for well more than the size of the pot. Jaksland snap-called and Rebei was caught with the fingers in the cookie jar.

Karim Rebei: {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Peter Jaksland: {9-Spades}{7-Spades}

No card could help Rebei and the {J-Clubs} river was a mere formality. Jaksland lost a small pot against Johannes Schulze shortly after and remained at around 1.3 million as a result.
