Event 33 - Final Table - And They're Off!
1 year ago
The Seven Card Stud H/L championship is currently in progress. They were scheduled to start at 3 p.m. but decided due to the late night that it would be pushed forward a couple of hours. As has been the case this year in the championship events, the final table has some familiar faces at it. Marcel Luske, Steve Sung, Annie Duke, and Chris Ferguson are all there ready to do battle.
Round 1
Sebastian Ruthenberg, Annie Duke, and Marcel Luske played a big hand just a few minutes into the final table. Luske hung around until sixth street when Duke and Ruthenberg each got in four bets.
Duke: 5
6
7 3
Ruthenberg: J 2 2 3
Duke fired on sixth and Ruthenberg raised. Luske sensed some fireworks coming and stepped aside. Duke reraised and Ruthenberg raised right back. The rest of Duke's chips went in on seventh street. Duke turned over a seven high straight which was good for the low but Ruthenberg's jacks full took down the high half. Luske took a big hit in that pot.
"Nice hand SIR!" said Annie Duke.
Round 2
Just a few minutes after the Duke-Ruthenberg hand, Luske was up against Chris Ferguson. This time Luske got all of his chips in by sixth street.
Ferguson: A
K J 4
Luske: 5 A T 5
On fourth street when Luske caught a ten he said,"Ten I hit."
He wasn't being truthful though. Luske turned up an ace in the hole to show aces and fives. Ferguson was drawing dead for the high but could catch a low card to retrieve half the pot. The dealer gave Ferguson his last card and Ferguson took about 90 seconds to squeeze it. Unfortunately for Ferguson it didn't help his hand but Luske didn't mind,he scooped the pot worth about $130,000.
