Biggest Pot Of The Tournament

We came in to a flop of {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}{8-Spades} when Christian Stricker Kohl checked in the big blind and a player in middle position bet out for 13,000. Kohl re-raised to 34,000, the player in middle position then re-raised again to 74,000. Kohl thought about it for 20 sec then re-raised all in for 287,000 total and got a snap call from his opponent.

Kohl had {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for two pair and his opponent flipped over {q-Clubs}{j-Spades} for the flopped nuts.

The turn however, was a big card. The {8-Diamonds} gave Kohl a full house and left his opponent drawing dead.

Kohl had a whopping 600,000 after the hand and is definitely our chip leader for the moment.

Ask and You Shall Recieve

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Will Failla just eliminated an opponent in a preflop all in. Failla held {A-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} and was up against {K-Clubs} {10-Hearts}.

"How about the {A-Clubs}?" Failla asked at the moment the dealer was putting the flop on the table. Right in the window was the {A-Clubs}. The board read {8-Hearts} {2-Clubs} {A-Clubs} {5-Spades} {10-Clubs} and Failla is up to 190,000.

After getting all the chips in preflop, Olivier Busquet's {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} was leading another player's {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}. The board ran out {q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and Busquet sent the other player to the rail.

Busquet's stack is now a little above the average at 206,000.

Le Calls on the River and Mucks

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Tuan Le and Gylbert Drolet built a sizable pot by the time we got to the table. They were at the river with the board reading {4-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {8-Diamonds}. Drolet had put out 30,000 and Le was shuffling and reshuffling a handful of chips while considering his options. Le elected to call after a few moments and Drolet tabled {Q-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} for a flush. Le looked as if his hand was the winner before the river and kicked his cards into the muck.

Medic Makes a Move

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Nenad Medic raised from under the gun (we missed the exact amount) and the player in the cutoff re-raised to 11,500. Medic then upped the bet to 31,500 and the player in the cutoff went into the tank. After quite a bit of deliberating the cutoff reluctantly showed an ace and folded his hand.

The table practically begged Medic to show his hand and he decided to oblige, showing the {7-Clubs}{6-Spades}.

Medic now has around 150,000.
