Shaun Deebs Railbird Army

Shaun Deeb

Suddenly we have a lot of railbirds. It seems most are here to watch internet sensation Shaun Deeb. Most of them are young and American, so I assume they are his internet buddies (Well, his real life buddies, his buddies who also play on the internet.)

Bluffing Antonius is a Dangerous Game...

A big pot developed between under-the-gun raiser Max Katz and caller Patrik Antonius. No words in this confrontation, just lingering looks and slow, deliberate actions.

Flop: {10-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{3-Hearts} Katz bet out 4,000; call from Antonius.
Turn: {9-Spades} Katz bet out 12k; call from Antonius.
River: {10-Spades} Katz bet out 25k now....call from Antonius, who showed {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Max Katz placidly revealed the surprising {4-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and watched his stack more than halve as the river card pretty much lowered those chances he might have had to bluff his opponent.

Antonius -- 157,000
Katz -- 36,000

"Red Card"

With the blinds at 500/1,000, Harry Demetriou raises to an alluring 2.2k pre-flop, a value so attractive in fact that both blinds call, Karl Mahrenholz in the small, and a Betfair online qualifier in the big.

The flop comes the {6-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and the initial Wise Owl raiser meekly checks behind both the blinds.

The seemingly innocent {2-Spades} turn triggers a firework display, Karl betting out 4.5k and the online qualifer pushing all-in behind him. Karl quickly calls what is effectively shrapnel and reveal his {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}, hoping in vain that he has overcards to go with his draw.

However, he is soon met by a menacing {2-Hearts}{2-Clubs} and a "Red card, please, red card" plea, which Karl responds by requesting, "Jack of hearts."

The poker gods were clearly in jovial mood, as the next card out was the {J-Hearts} giving Karl the straight and sending his somewhat miffed opponent packing.

"Well, he did ask for a red card," commented Karl in the aftermath.

Toowit Toowout

Oh go on then, I'll call
Oh go on then, I'll call
Harry 'Wise Owl' Demetriou is out of the WSOPE Main Event. According to my source, Karl Mahrenholz, Harry raised pre-flop with pocket twos, called a re-raise from Magnus Persson before pushing on the flop before it had even been dealt. Magnus, however, had flopped a set of tens to leave the Wise Owl drawing virtually dead.

Another One Bites the Dust

Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust
Hey, I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust

Ahem... sorry, got carried away there. Anyhow, we have indeed lost another player, Kenny Tran exacting revenge on Tero Salonen with {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades} versus {9-Spades}{9-Clubs} all-in pre-flop, the board coming a rather clinical {8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{6-Hearts}.
