Kraus Doubles on the Feature Table

Nível 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

In a preflop all in, Anton Kraus was at risk with the {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} over on the feature table and Orpen Kisacikoglu looked him up with the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}. The flop {A-Spades}{10-Clubs}{A-Clubs} gave Kisacikoglu trips aces and Kraus was almost crying, yet the {7-Clubs} turn and {3-Clubs} river gave him a backdoor flush to stay in the tournament.

Just a Little Four-Bet

Nível 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

After a raise and a call, Steve O'Dwyer three-bet from the button and Ivan Luca four-bet from the big blind. Only O'Dwyer called the 45,200 squeeze and Luca as well as the 10k Single Day champion of last night checked the flop {K-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{8-Clubs}. On the {K-Clubs} turn, Luca checked and O'Dwyer's shove for 135,000 went through.

Scandinavia Battles for the Chip Lead

Nível 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

The two biggest stacks right now in the room belong to Samuli Sipila and Alexander Ivarsson. Sipila may very well jump into the lead still after only being somewhat short of half a million while Ivarsson is above that mark.

Pawel Brzeski is currently on around 400,000, a big pot would catapult him into the lead still within the last 15 minutes of the level.

"That's A Really Big Pot"

Nível 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Alen Bilic opened the hijack to 5,200 and Sam Greenwood made it 15,000 from the button. Giulio Spampinato in the small blind cold called and Bilic called as well.

The flop came {3-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} and Spampinato lead out for 40,000. Bilic folded, Greenwood called. The {J-Clubs} fell on the turn and now Spampinato bet out 65,000. Again Greenwood called.

The {3-Clubs} completed the board, pairing and bringing in the back door flush draw. Spampinato shoved all in, effectively betting 144,800. Greenwood leaned back and said "That's a really big pot" while contemplating his decision. After about a minute or two Greenwood folded.

Spampinato let out a huge sigh and leaned backwards like he was relieved. "Oh no, that's not good!" Greenwood said with a smile, "That's the look of a man that just bluffed"

As the table broke right after the hand, both Greenwood and another player asked Spampinato what he had, but he either didn't hear it or didn't understand it as he did not respons in any sort of way. Greenwood still has just under 150,000 left.

"I Thought It Was Going to Be a Flip"

Nível 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Paul Berende open-shoved for 28,600 and Akim Aouine isolated the field with a three-bet to 51,500.

Berende: {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Aouine: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

Berende was well out in front, but he didn't seem to much like the {5-Hearts}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop, which gave his opponent a gutshot straight draw. Fortunately for him, the harmless {K-Hearts} blanked on the turn followed by the {A-Diamonds} on the river.

"I though it was going to be a flip," Berende said after the hand.

Bart Kuiper Eliminated

Nível 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Bart Kuiper finished 10th in this event last season for €49,700, but he won't make as deep a run this time around.

He started out good today but the last level or so saw him downfall till around starting stack. His shoved all in for his last 30,000 holding {Q-}{J-} suited and got called in two spots. He was up against [AxAx and {A-}{K-} and didn't improve enough to win it. He flopped top pair and turned a gutshot, but the river blanked and the Dutchman made his exit.

Fortunately for him, he lives here on the island, so making his way home won't take him too long.

McDonald Gets There

Nível 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
Mike McDonald
Mike McDonald

Just a couple days removed from winning the €25K High Roller here at the EPT12 Malta Canadian Mike McDonald has just turned a decent stack into a massive one here late on Day 2 of the Main Event.

He was seen five-bet shoving with jacks into Antonio Scalzi's pocket queens and four-flushing on the river to move up to a spot among the biggest stacks in the room.

McDonald's High Roller win actually vaulted him above Scott Seiver on the top of the all-time EPT money list only to see Steve O'Dwyer leapfrog them both a day later with his €10,200 Single-Day High Roller.

This pot left him with more than 150 big blinds and a shot at even more cash heading into the close of Day 2.

"Tight-Man1" Shoves on Yoon

Christoph Vogelsang
Christoph Vogelsang

With around 30,000 already in the pot and a flop reading {5-Spades}{10-Clubs}{7-Spades}, Brian Yoon checked from the under-the-gun position and Christoph "Tight-Man1" Vogelsang bet 15,000 from middle position. Yoon made the call and then check-called a bet of 38,000 on the {9-Hearts} turn before checking a third time on the {4-Clubs} river.

Vogelsang proceeded to move all in for 98,400, and Yoon spent several minutes pondering the decision before releasing his hand.

"Can I get a learning experience?" Yoon asked, joining several other players in encouraging Vogelsang to show. He did not.
