Defending Champ Loses a Flip

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante
Arne Kern
Arne Kern

Arne Kern was in the big blind, facing a raise from the button and a three-bet shove for 18,700 from the small blind. Kern slid a pile of chips in front of him to force the opener out.

Kern would have prefered a high board with {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} versus {j-Clubs}{j-Spades} but he didn't get one as the {8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{2-Hearts} runout remained safe for the paired hand. Kern doubled his opponent but he still maneuvers a solid stack of around 65,000.

Foxen Enters Fray

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

Alex Foxen bet 13,500 into a pot of just over 20,000 with a board reading {5-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{10-Hearts}.

Anderson Runs into Blades

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

Calvin Anderson made it 2,300 on the button before the player in the big blind three-bet to 6,800. Anderson matched the price and then he called another 10,500 on the {4-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{10-Clubs} flop. The {9-Spades} turn went check-check but the big blind quickly fired 15,000 when the {4-Clubs} landed.

Anderson was interested in the showdown and paid the bet only to find out that he was up against {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}. "You got it," Anderson said and mucked his hand.

Toan Nguyen Among the Big Stacks

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

On a board that read {10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{q-Spades}{7-Hearts} Toan Nguyen was in a decent sized pot. Action was checked to him and he decided to check it back and turned over the {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for second pair which was good enough to take the pot and continue his upward climb into the higher echelons of the chip counts.
