Vance Takes the Lead! 2 years ago

The biggest pot of the tournament so far started like many of the hands in this heads-up match so far. Tim Vance made it $140k pre-flop and Soren Jensen flat-called. The 10c 8c 2h flop brought a $200k bet from Vance and a $200k re-raise from Jensen. Vance floated the bet and checked the Qs turn; Jensen checked behind him and the river fell the Jc. Another check from Jensen and Vance shoved all-in.

This is when Jensen revealed the biggest mistake we've seen so far as he made the call with Q-10. Perhaps he should have bet the turn, because he had allowed Vance to catch the flush. We didn't see Vance's clubs but he raked the massive pot and grabs the lead with $3.7 million to Jensen's $900,000.

Trips for Jensen 2 years ago

After a brief flurry of action things seem to have slowed back down. Tim Vance limps from the small blind and Jensen checks in the big. The flop comes down Js 7s 3c and after a check form Jensen, Vance fires $120,000. Jensen makes the call and the 6s hits the turn.

Both players check and the river brings the 3d. Soren checks again and Vance checks behind him. Vance shows 7-2 for the flopped second pair and Jensen shows Q-3 for the rivered trips. The pot is shipped to Jensen and we're wondering where the value bet on the river went.

Flip-Flop! 2 years ago

Tim Vance and Soren Jensen just played a hand that may help decide a winner here in Copenhagen.

Jensen made it $100k to go pre-flop and Vance just called. The Ac 7c 5c flop brought a $200k bet from Vance, but Soren raised it up to $400k. The 5s turn went check-check, but Vance bet the 2d river, making it $400k. Jensen made the huge call and his A-8 grabbed the pot over Vance's A-2. The pot gives Jensen the lead with $2.8 million. Vance has $1.8 million. Jensen can still be heard screaming something or other in Danish about a local football club.

Action! (Sort Of) 2 years ago

In the first thing resembling a hand we've seen in a while Soren Jensen has made back a few of the chips he lost in the last few levels. Tim Vance limped his small blind and Jensen checked the big. The flop came down Jc 9h 5d and Vance quickly led out for $100,000. Jensen just as quickly announced raise and made it $200,000. Vance took a short dwell before letting it go.

Short Break 2 years ago

These two gladiators, these two warriors, have been sent on a short break. Perhaps tired from the unbelievable amount of betting and raising going on, they've been given a few minutes to recharge. Seriously though, we're going to go shoot ourselves.

You've Got to Be Kidding! 2 years ago

Well, we thought it was bad but we didn't know how bad it could get. The last eight hands in a row have been open-folded by the player on the button. That's right, open-folded from the button. Rock on guys, rock on.
