Amsterdam Masterclassics - DAY 3 - Live Update (At A Glance)

<< < (8/10) > >>

danafish:
Blinds are currently 4k/8k with a 1k ante, which means that nicking the blinds results in a tasty 22k to the raiser.

I saw both Poortinga do it with an all in for his last 65 or 70k, and then Jaspers achieved the same thing with a mere min-raise.

I also saw Tony Bloom raise, but I have no idea what happened because then I got thrown out of the pit. Wonderful.

Djinn:
Play has slowed to a crawl.  There have been three all-in moves in the last half hour, none called.  But one was just now!  

This gent pictured being microphonally adjusted and Noah Boeken managed to get it in preflop, one with  tc th and the other with  td jd.

Flop:   9d js 7c  ("Oooh," go the crowd)
Turn:  8d ("Diamonds?" ask the crowd)
River:  kc

Chop-chop. 

Djinn:
A huge and fascinating hand just developed in which Eric Larcheveque eliminated Simon Ravnsbaek.

Limpathon, unusually, with four players seeing a flop of  tc :2c: 4c.  Short stacked Martin pushed, and Eric shoved over the top.  We thought it was going to progress to "on their backs" sharpish - but no - over to Tristan McDonald who looked like his head was going to explode.

The full works - he stands up, removes his cap, repeatedly ruffles his hair, stares so intently at Larcheveque that I half expected lasers to come out of his eyes, asks, "Do you have a flush?", actually wrings his hands, counts and recounts his chips, and then finally passes.  He showed his neighbours his hand.  We"ll come to that later.

SO: Martin shows  ts 9s, in horrific shape against Eric"s  ac 8c.  The turn and river did nothing, we lost our 15th place player (€23,000).

McDonald had passed  6c 7c. 

danafish:
Got a couple of chip counts during the break - afraid there are only a few, owing to the tables now being balanced so I don"t know where anyone is any more, and no-one has left their ID by their stacks.

Partial as they are:

Eidsvig -- 500k
Tony Bloom -- 390k
Michael Martin -- 746k
Sevevi -- 170k

danafish:
De La Gorce is OUT in 14th place, nabbing himself a tasty €23,000.
