Ferguson Ousted by Sammer

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Chris Ferguson
Chris Ferguson

Chris Ferguson was in the hijack and raised to 7,000. Harald Sammer was in the big blind and three-bet to 23,500. Ferguson tanked for a couple of minutes before he pushed his remaining 104,500 into the middle. Sammer thought a moment and called, having Ferguson covered.

Sammer: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Ferguson: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

The flop was {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, spiking Sammer's overcard to give him the lead. The turn and river were the {2-Diamonds} and {6-Diamonds}, unable to tilt the pot back in Ferguson's favor and making this a black Monday for him as it ended his day.

Tammy Wing Heads North Instead of South

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Just moments ago, Tammy Wing was sitting on 13,000 in chips and now has 140,000 in front of her.

Wing explained that she first got her short stack in the middle with pocket nines and survived against ace-king and pocket fours to get her to a workable stack.

A short while later, Wing picked up two aces and got it all in preflop against ace-king of hearts and jack-ten. She was able to hold on yet again, and now has a healthy stack to work with.

Men The Master Finds a Friend in Steve Watts

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Men Nguyen_Steve Watts
Men Nguyen_Steve Watts

Men “The Master” Nguyen and Steve Watts from England have been sat next to each other since before the bubble today and the jokes, or “banter” as they call it in England, flying between them has seen them strike up a friendship with plenty of teasing each other.

Nguyen is calling Watts German and telling him to speak English to which Watts replied, “Hello, darling,” which cracked Nguyen up. Watts then called Nguyen his Indian friend which prompted The Master to jokingly call the floor.

Poker is still going on at the same time with Nguyen shoving from the small blind over an open. Watts folded the big blind and the original raiser mucked so Nguyen showed his {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}.

On the next hand, the same player opened, Nguyen folded the button and it was Watts who moved all in from the small blind. This time the player in the big blind called to put Watts at risk of elimination.

Watts: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Big blind: {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

The board ran out {q-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{q-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{4-Spades}.

Watts got a big double-up and the friendship now has more time to blossom. Nguyen said he had never visited England; maybe an invitation will be forthcoming?
