Pohler Has Too Many Outs Versus Jacobson

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Martin Jacobson
Martin Jacobson

Greg Pohler was all in for around 300,000 and up against 2014 Main Event champion Martin Jacobson, who barely had him covered.

Greg Pohler: {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Martin Jacobson: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Jacobson stayed ahead on the {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop, but Pohler picked up a flush draw to go with his two overcards. "That's too many outs," Jacobson said.

Pohler paired his queen on the {q-Diamonds}. "Down to one out," Jacobson said, but he didn't hit the {6-Spades} river to hand over a double to Pohler and leave himself with just 10,000.

Poker Is Simple for Katsman

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Hiroki Nawa raised to 120,000 from early position and got a call to his left. Action folded to Aleksandr Katsman in the big blind who shoved for 1,100,000.

"Do it. I want to go home. I make money already," Katsman said as Nawa considered the call. Nawa eventually moved all in himself and the original caller folded pocket eights.

Aleksandr Katsman: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Hiroki Nawa: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

Nawa stayed in front on the {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop, but Katsman paired his ace on the {a-Hearts} turn. The river came the {j-Clubs} and Katsman doubled up.

"Very simple," Katsman said as he stacked his new chips.
