Updated Counts Table 11

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

The last The Hendon Mob qualifier Florian Bock has continued to add chips and surged well above the average on table 11. In the last hand, he was in the hijack and took on Eben Mare on the button. The turn showed J53A and Bock fired a bet of 85,000.

Mare used one time bank and then folded.

Shortly after, Marko Nortje raised to 27,000 and Gerhard Oosthuizen three-bet to 80,000 on the button. Nortje jammed and Oosthuizen was visibly shook. Both engaged in some table chat before Oosthuizen called all-in.

Gerhard Oosthuizen: QQ All in
Marko Nortje: QQ

After the 552 flop, another player grinned and said "boring" as the split pot was guaranteed. No surprise shenanigans came on the K turn and 5 river.

Two Triple Ups on Table 12

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

Clive Kikia check-jammed for the last 66,000 on the 964 flop and was called by Wesley Blom as well as Marko Nortje. The two active players checked down the J turn and 10 river.

Kikia showed the 107 for a gutshot and flush draw that instead made a pair of tens. Nortje's 76 and the AQ of Blom failed to score the knockout.

Abraham Van Huyssteen then tripled up with Nortje involved again when his king-queen rivered a pair of queens.
