Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Renier Britz
Renier Britz

Renier Britz jammed all-in for 18,500 and was called by Mariette Language on the button as well as KM in the small blind. KM check-folded to a bet by Language on the 1053 flop.

Renier Britz: 1010 All in
Mariette Language: KQ

The 65 runout provided the triple up with tens full.

"I folded queen-jack of hearts," KM said. He is currently multi-tabling as he also entered the Single Day High Roller late on.

One Flops It; One Turns It

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Michael Franken
Michael Franken

A short stacked late entrant three-bet jammed with the 65 and was called by Michael Franken with the KJ.

The 987 flop gave the player at risk the bottom end of the straight but the 10 turn secured Franken at least half the pot with the jack-high stack. Only a jack would result in a split pot, but the 2 river brought no upset.

Bittger Takes From Schlegel

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Stefan Bittger raised to 4,000 and called a three-bet to 13,000 by Beat Schlegel, who then continued for 6,000 on the AJ3 flop. Bittger came along and they checked the K turn. Bittger bet the 9 river and Schlegel sighed, folded the QQ face-up.

Franken Finishes Off Hira

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

On the tail end of a heads-up pot to the J428Q river, Ashley Hira bet 15,000 for half of his stack. Michael Franken called and showed A5 for ace-high, having missed the wheel and nut flush draw. Hira sighed, exposed the 75 and dropped to a short stack.

Hira then moved all-in blind without checking his cards. Franken called on the button, everyone else folded.

Ashley Hira: KJ All in
Michael Franken: 66

Despite not having seen his cards and only flipping them over one by one for the showdown, it was best case scenario with a classic flip for Hira. He picked up a ton of outs until the Q938 turn but the 7 river was not among them.

Level: 13

Blinds: 1,000/2,500

Ante: 2,500

Jardien Flops Well

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

On a heads-up flop of QJ9, Stefan Bittger checked and then faced a bet of 5,000 by Jaryd Jardien. The German opted to fold and Jardien exclaimed "you don't believe me that I have it all the time?" before flashing queen-jack suited for top two pair.

Bittger replied "I had this" and grabbed into his cards near the muck, exposing the K for a gutshot.

Young Among Recent Casualties

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Maxwell Young
Maxwell Young

Maxwell Young had late-registered at the last minute and ran up a stack only for it to come crushing down in a big pot against Bernard Gossard. The A5 of Young were up against K10.

On a board of J6595, Gossard turned a flush and the trips of Young on the river were meaningless. He had crumbs left and lost those the next hand against Adam Gamsy.

Horgan Chops; Then Busts

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Colin Horgan
Colin Horgan

The Hendon Mob qualifier Colin Horgan jammed a short stack with A6 and was called by Jaco Mouton in the next seat on the button with the A6.

Mouton freerolled the Q85 flop but the A turn and 4 river ensured the split pot.

Horgan was at risk the next hand with KQ against Didier Mery with the AQ. There was some equity to be had on the J95 flop for the Irishman but he bricked the 7J runout.
