Burgon Doubles (Again) 2 years ago

It seems Peter Burgon's only move is all-in and he has successfully executed it once again. To make things more interesting, each time he moves in he stands up on his chair, dons his sparkly jester hat and begins to make some sort of train noise while moving his arms back and forth, we think in a effort to simulate the movement of a train.

A few minutes ago he went through his routine and was looked up by the player in the small blind who tabled Ah Kh. Burgon was in good shape with pocket kings and after raking the pot he was able to take off the hat and sit down in his seat.

Adamsen Annihilated 2 years ago

Nikolaj Adamsen is the latest player on his way to the rail. He began this level with just about $10,000, all of which found its way into the middle on what would be the last hand of his tournament. Ad 4d for Nikolaj needed some help against his opponent's pocket jacks and he got part of the way there when the flop brought two diamonds. A four on the turn gave him a few more outs but the river was a brick and Adamsen's tournament was over.

Big Fold from Levi 2 years ago

Two of the big stacks in the room just got involved in a monster pot with Levi making what may or may not have been a great fold on the turn. It began with Levi opening from late position and Jon Develin calling from the small blind. The flop came down Qc Th 8s and Develin led out for $1,000. Levi raised to $7,000 and Develin re-popped to $25,000. Levi insta-called and the turn brought the 5d. Develin immediately moved all-in and it was another $50,000 or so back to the Frenchman.

He went deep into the tank and began counting out his chips. As the clock ran out on this level players from other tables began to spectate but after a few minutes Levi mucked his hand face up, Q-8 for two pair. Develin didn't show his hand but a glimmer of frustration flitted across his face as he saw the strength of the hand Levi had folded. Develin has yet to stack his chips but the math in this hand tells us he should have over $100,000. Levi is still in good shape with about $60k.

Angove on the Warpath 2 years ago

Just moments after sending Juha Helppi to the rail, Rachel Angove has eliminated another player. The action was folded around to the player in the small blind who was relatively short-stacked and he moved all-in. Angove made the call from the big blind and tabled pocket nines which were racing her opponent's K-J. A king hit the flop but a nine hit the river, giving Angove the winning set and increasing her stack to almost $50,000.

Helppi Hamburgered 2 years ago

Juha Helppi got off to a good start this afternoon but around the fourth or fifth level things started to go a little sideways. We looked in on him a few moments ago only to see him moving all-in for his last $6,200. He was looked up by Rachel Angove who tabled A-T and Juha was in need of some help with K-J. Angove was able to hit an ace, which would be the death blow for the Finn.

Parsons Plastered 2 years ago

Jon Parsons, who dealt Juha Helppi a fairly sick beat earlier this afternoon, has been eliminated. He saw his once glorious stack dwindle down to just over $10,000 and shipped it in from late position a few moments ago. He was looked up by the player in the small blind who turned over Ac Kh. 6h 8h for Parsons would need some help but after the board ran Ad Js 9d Qc 9c it was all over.
