The Grinder Gets Chips

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

We noticed Michael Mizrachi bet 600 on the {4-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} turn and 1,600 on the {J-Spades} river, both of which got called by an opponent. "The Grinder" showed {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and that won the pot. Below we have some various other chip counts from the Brasilia silver section.

Laak Low, Selbst Sits

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

It folded to Phil Laak in the small blind and he limped for 100, with a stack of around 1,400, and the big blind checked his option.

They saw a flop of {q-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{4-Hearts} which was checked and on the turn card {9-Diamonds} Laak bet 100. His opponent called and they saw a river {j-Spades}. Laak bet 400 and his opponent moved all in for only 150 more. Laak called and mucked when he saw he was beaten by {q-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flopped two pair.

Meanwhile in the Pavillion room Vanessa Selbst has taken her seat.

Inselberg Felted

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

David Inselberg finished 8th in the $ 1,000 No Limit Hold'em (Event #9) early at this year's World Series Of Poker. Unfortunately, he won'
t repeat this success here in Event #33 as we just saw him heading to the rail. He called all in for his last 1,500 chips on the {10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{5-Clubs} river and then sighed an "ouch" when shown {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}. Inselberg only had {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} and was knocked out.

Que pasa con Heinz?

Heinz Kamutzki
Heinz Kamutzki

Heinz Kamutzki was involved in a hand with an opponent from Spain and joked on the {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop when his opponent bet 250. Kamutzki said the betting amount in Spanish and then asked "Was that correct?" The opponent nodded and then raised the {Q-Hearts} turn from 300 to 800.

Kamutzki called and then bet 900 after the {9-Spades} river. "Is that too much? I still think you gonna pay me off," Kamutzki threw towards the other side of the table. "Probably," was the reply from his opponent and he indeed got called. Kamutzki showed {A-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} as winning hand and raked in the chips.

While walking into the red section of the Brasilia room, we noticed that the seat of Philipp Roch was occupied by someone else. Fortunately, social media allows to stay in touch with players and thus we received the following update on what exactly happened.

"FML, first hand KK versus AA"
