Vogelsang vs Mulder
Vogelsang vs Mulder

Rob "batoelrob" Hollink got his stack in preflop with the {q-Spades}{9-Hearts} an "Prof. Hitman" looked him up with the {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts} on the button.

The board ran out [Ah84s6hJc] and that was it for Hollink.

Up next, Scott "Aggro Santos" Margereson departed, as did Pascal "Pass_72" Lefrancois, Andrey "drupa-lucker" Chernokoz and Jonathan "corback_fr" Therme.

Christoph "26071985" Vogelsang was more fortunate when he flipped for his tournament life with {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts} against the {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} of Teun "tinnoemulder" Mulder. The {10-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} board delivered the ace on the turn.

Watson On the Rise

Christian Zetzsche
Christian Zetzsche
Level 16 : 10,000/20,000, 2,500 ante

As the frantic post registration period is somewhat slowing down, Mike "SirWatts" Watson chipped up to more than half a million. His under the gun raise was called by "Prof. Hitman" who check-called 20,000 on the {q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop and 80,000 on the {4-Hearts} turn.

They checked the {3-Hearts} river and Watson earned the pot with {a-Hearts}{j-Spades} versus {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}.
