[user252447]

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Martin Kabrhel’s tournament has come to an end, and his table seems to be in a slight daze over what hit them and mightily relieved his presence won’t be felt any more today.

According to one player at the table, Kabrhel had two pair and got all his chips in the middle on the turn against an opponent, who had an overpair. The board paired on the river, though, to counterfeit the Czech pro and send him packing.

Martin Kabrhel: Top 1,000?

[user252447]

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

Martin Kabrhel has a well-earned reputation as a tricky customer, and his individual playing style is not to everybody’s taste. Few will deny, though, that he can be devastatingly effective given the right circumstances, and he is looking to test the boundaries already today.

There was an open for 500 from the button, and Kabrhel, in the big blind, started sizing up his and the small blind’s stack. The small blind folded, and Kabrhel called.

“Me and lion king, eh? Good luck to you.” Kabrhel said.

“Are you the best player?” his opponent asked of the cocksure Czech professional.

“Top one thousand, not bad,” came the answer.

The flop was .

Kabrhel checked, and his opponent bet 1,700. Kabrhel check-raised to 8,500 in front of his opponent, who hesitated.

“Flush draw? How big?” Kabrhel wanted to know before his opponent mucked. “No way! I thought Asian players liked to gamble.”
