Gorree Calls Correctly Against Abela

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Konrad Abela & Jacques Sardal Tal
Konrad Abela & Jacques Sardal Tal

On the {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs} river, Konrad Abela bet 7,000 and that sent Eric Gorree into the tank for more than two minutes. Ultimately, Gorree called and was good with the {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds} as Abela's {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} contained the inferior kicker.

Vainio Chips Back Up

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Over on table six, a war of who would blink first ensued when Finland's Jukka Vainio and Marcin Nadarzewski met. They had created a pot of 9,000 to the {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}{a-Spades} turn on which Vainio checked from an early position.

Nadarzewski now bet 4,000 and a check-raise to 10,400 followed. A stoic Vainio kept staring right to the middle of the board while Nadarzewski played with a single chip for more than three minutes, seemingly unable to make up his mind.

Eventually, the Pole settled for a fold and Vainio raked in the pot without showing any emotions whatsoever.

Griffin Jams Up His Stack

Four ways to the {10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop, Simon Griffin bet 4,800 when checked to. Only David Hu called and the {q-Spades} fell on the turn. Griffin now pushed all-in for around 20,000 and Hu instantly folded.

Kevin Frame raised to 1,800 and Gerard Keenan then three-bet to 4,500 from one seat over. The four-bet shove by Frame followed and Keenan beat him into the pot for a very specific reason.

Gerard Keenan: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}
Kevin Frame: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

The {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} board improved Frame to a set of jacks and the stacks were counted, after which Keenan was covered by a few big blinds only.

Registration for Day 1b Closed

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

The satellite for Day 1c has already concluded while the QUEENRULES Ladies Event is down to the heads-up stage. In the meanwhile, the Day 1b field of the €1,100 Main Event has been reduced to the last 97 players out of 152 entries and the late registration is officially closed.

All those departing from now on will have to wait for the turbo heat in one hour from now to take their second chance at running up a stack.

Espensen Cracks Aces to Bust Eriksson

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

After a checked through flop of {j-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}, things escalated on the {8-Clubs} turn when the chips went in between David Eriksson and Ronnie Espensen with the former at risk.

David Eriksson: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Ronnie Espensen: {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}

The {3-Spades} river were a brick and that spelled the end for Eriksson.

"We were both slow playing on the flop," Espensen admitted after he added the chips of the Swede to his growing tower.

Walshe Makes the Right Fold

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Heads-up to the {j-Hearts}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop, Kevin Walshe check-called a bet worth 3,700 by Robin Valting and the {q-Diamonds} appeared on the turn. Walshe checked again and Valting now bet 5,000.

"You got something good?" Walshe inquired and Valting replied "I think so," which sent the Irishman into a muzzle. "Now you really got me worried" he added while Valting joked "well I don't really know the rules of the game".

The Swede then offered to show the cards if Walshe would fold and that's exactly what happened, as he exposed the {q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} for two pair before raking in the pot.

"I had a worse hand but was ahead preflop," Walshe added to which another player replied "that doesn't count".
