Nordahl Folds Queens on a 7-High Flop

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

We arrived with the flop already out on table 7: {5-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{7-Hearts}. Florin Gordan had checked from the blinds and Erik Nordahl had bet 15,000. Nedjo Bibezic shoved all in for 28,500 and Gordan instantly shoved all in over the top.

Nordahl instantly said "Wow!", and folded his {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} after just under 10 seconds. Bibezic showed {8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for the flopped nuts, Gordan tabled {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}.

The {J-Clubs} turn and {J-Spades} river were both blanks and Bibezic more than doubled up.

Guilbert Tanks

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Johan Guilbert
Johan Guilbert

On a flop of {9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} we saw big blind Jonas Gustafsson check. His neighbor, under the gun player Johan Guilbert, checked as well and action was on hijack Michal Danka. Danka made a bet of 3,600 and Gustafsson folded right away. Guilbert made the call however.

The {7-Hearts} on the turn was checked by both. The {A-Diamonds} completed the board and Guilbert checked. Danka bet 7,300 and Guilbert went into the tank. Deep. Very deep. About 5 minutes or so passed before he tossed in a single 5,000 chip to call.

Danka showed his {8-Spades}{9-Spades} and Guilbert was happy to take it down with his {K-Spades}{10-Spades}.

As we arrived on table 2, there was already some banter going on with Hormiz Kamil smiling and chatting. The flop was {A-Clubs}{7-Spades}{2-Spades} and Kamil had just check raised all in against a bet of Zoltan Boszormenyi.

"I know you're gonna call" he said at one point. "Ok, I call" said Boszormenyi.

Boszormenyi: {A-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Kamil: {9-Spades}{3-Spades}

The {5-Clubs} hit the turn and now Kamil asked for a four. And wouldn't you know it, the {4-Diamonds} hit the river.

"I have straight! Thank you very much!" Kamil said while he doubled his 21,500 stack.

Beukers Doubles

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Fokke Beukers doubled in one of the last hands before the break. He told us what had happened.

The player under the gun opened and Beukers called on the button holding {K-}{J-}. The big blind came along as well and the flop came {A-}{Q-}{10-}. The big blind checked, followed by a continuation bet from the initial raiser. Beukers called, and so did the big blind.

A {9-} fell on the turn and the big blind checked. The under the gun player bet 7,000 and Beukers raised to 18,000. The big blind folded and an all in by the under the gun player followed. Beukers called with the nuts and was shown {J-}{8-} for a lower straight.

The river blanked and Beukers doubled to 100,000.
