The Book Closes on Moorman

Nível 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Whenever Mikel Habb wins a big hand, the whole tournament room is sure to hear it. Habb is prone bellow such phrases as "come on" and "ship it," both of which he shouted after eliminated Chris "Moorman1" Moorman from the tournament.

We missed the hand unfold, but it appeared Moorman shoved his stack on the river with a board reading and Habb made the call with the for a pair of nines.

"Yeah, come on," Habb shouted when Moorman went to muck. "Ship it."

Since it was an all-in and a call, Moorman was obligated to show his hand, so the dealer tabled the for a losing pair of fours. With that, we've lost online poker's most successful tournament player.

Finger Counterfeited Before Being Eliminated

Nível 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

There's not too many more annoying things in poker than having your (once) leading hand counterfeited. It happened to Martin Finger just now to see his stack drop to about 20,000. Minutes after he was seen leaving the tournament area after losing the rest.

He was battling head up versus Dylan Wilkerson and the two had made it to the river where a board rested. Finger had led out from the big blind on the turn and did do for 2,600 on the river. Once called he opened for a flopped two pair but lost out to Wilkerson's .

Boeree Shoves the River

Nível 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

An under-the-gun player opened for 1,000 and Liv Boeree called from the button. The player in the big blind came along, and three players took a flop of . The big blind checked, the under-the-gun player bet 1,700, and only Boeree called to see the turn.

Two checks saw the peel off on the river, and the under-the-gun player checked for a second time. Boeree paused for a few beats and then slid her entire stack of 6,775 in the middle. It did the trick as the under-the-gun player wasted little time in folding his hand.

Meanwhile, Australian legend Leo Boxell, who had been nursing a short stack, succumbed in unknown action over at Table 32.

A Surprising Amundsgard Move Wins the Pot

Nível 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Some hands promise much early on and fizzle out. A hand between Ola Amundsgard and Benny stack looked to be heading that way, and even though no cards were shown, it had a little surprise at the end.

Amundsgard raised to 1,000 from the hijack after an early position limp before Spindler three-bet to 2,800 from the next seat. The limper folded but Amundsgard made the call to see a flop appear. The action there, and on the turn, was checked and the river came as the . Amundsgard checked for a third time and Spindler bet 1,600. The Norwegian then came in with a surprise check-raise up to 11,200.

Spindler was a bit taken back by raise and probably the size of it. He tanked for two minuted before throwing his cards into the muck.

Aces for Rann

Nível 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

James Rann had a big stack earlier but a bad period saw him drop to below 10,000. Winning a hand with aces just now has seen him rise to 14,000 to help reverse that negative trend.

He opened to 900 and was called by Mike Guttmann (button) and the big blind. The flop came and Rann continued for 1,600. Only Guttmann called and both players went on to check the turn and river down.

Rann opened and scooped the pot. Guttmann indicated he was chasing spades.

Reina vs. Hachem vs. Boeree

Nível 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Joe Reina used his big stack to opened for 1,100 under the gun and Liv Boeree called him from the hijack. Joe Hachem came along from the cutoff, and the trio saw a flop of .

Two checks saw Hachem toss out six red T500 chips for a bet of 3,000, and it did the trick as both Reina and Boeree mucked. It wasn't much of a hand, but it gave us a good excuse to update you on all their hands.
