Aces vs Aces

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 500 ante

Vladimir Nex has chipped up considerably to over 200,000 in chips.

Marinel Oros opened from under the gun and Nex three-bet from middle position. Oros four-bet all in for around 45,000 and Nex called.

Vladimir Nex: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}
Marinel Oros: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}

It was a incredible set-up of a hand, and the flop came {9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Spades} giving Oros backdoors to the unlikeliest of doubles. But the turn {8-Clubs} ensured a chop and the river bricked as both players chopped the pot.

Big Shove From Bjorkland Gets Through

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 500 ante

There was just 15,000 in the middle on a {10-Spades}{2-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Spades} flop and Kurt Bjorkland had shoved all in for 84,500.

His opponent was Cedric Zaks who was tanking and toying with his decision.

"I don't have the balls," said Zaks eventually before open-folding {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts} for a set. Bjorkland showed {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs} for just a pair of jacks and Zaks shouted an expletive.

"I knew you had that," said Zaks. "Fuck me!"

"Don't worry man," said someone at the table. "The river could ahve been a jack."

Hansen Trims Espensen's Chip Lead

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Ronnie Espensen was up to around 180,000 in chips at the last break, but has fallen back. He was involved in a pot with Johnny Hansen.

With 30,000 chips in the middle, Hansen and Espensen both checked a {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{j-Spades}{k-Diamonds} flop and turn and the {k-Hearts} came on the river. Hansen bet 22,000 which elicited a quick fold from Espensen.

Hansen turned over {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs} for a rivered full house and he took down the pot.

Jeppsson Eliminated

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Action was on a {7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{2-Spades}{q-Spades} river with around 25,000 in the middle. Henrik Jeppsson checked out of the big blind and Cedric Zaks bet 31,500 which was enough to put Jeppsson all in.

Jeppsson had 15,000 behind and took his time before flinging in a single chip to call. Zaks showed {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} for a rivered pair and Jeppsson helicopter-folded his cards and was eliminated.

Zaks has chipped up to around 100,000 in chips.
