The Jig is Up!

Kirk.brown

Nível 19 : Blinds 0/0, 12,000 ante

Martin Nielsen opened to 70,000 preflop and was called by Eric Wasserson and Ivan Ermin to see a flop of 7♣9♣9♠.

All three players checked and they went to the turn 10♣. Ermin thought for a second before leading out for 160,000 but both of his opponents quickly folded.

"Ahhh, come on guys, you made that too easy!" Ermin joked as he was pushed the pot, but when he tosed his cards to the dealer, the 9♥ flashed up to where Wasserson could see it.

"The jig is up! We saw the nine!" he joked.

Eric Wasserson limped under the gun and it folded to Martin Nielsen who checked on the button.

The flop came Q♣9♦6♣ and Wasserson led out for 40,000, which Nielsen came along. The K♣ hit the turn and Wasserson slowed down with a check to Nielsen who bet out 80,000. Wasserson made the call and the 8♠ completed the board.

Wasserson checked again and Nielsen sized to 150,000. Wasserson went deep in the tank, but after over a minute, made the call. Nielsen announced "good call" and Wasserson tabled K♥10♣ to take down the pot with only top pair.

Nível 19 : Blinds 0/0, 12,000 ante

Hong Wei Yu opened to 87,000 from the cutoff but then Martin Nielsen three-bet him to 250,000.

Yu did not think this was quite enough and he put in the cold four-bet to 587,000.

Nielsen thought about it for a couple of seconds but then decided to lay it down.

"Show the bluff!" Eric Wasserson shouted, but Yu did not show.

Ermin Finds Another Double Up

Nível 18 : Blinds 0/0, 10,000 ante

In a four-way limped pot on a flop of A♠K♣9♠, Eric Wasserson bet out 40,000 from under the gun and Ivan Ermin raised to 305,000 next to act. The rest of the table folded back to Wasserson who moved all in, covering the 664,000 total for Ermin, who quickly made the call.

Ivan Ermin: 9♥9♦
Eric Wasserson: Q♠10♠

Ermin flopped bottom set, but would need to dodge the straight and flush draw for Wasserson. The board ran out 6♣A♥ and Ermin improved to a full house to score the big double up and even out the stacks.

Ace-Queen Good For Wasserson

Kirk.brown

Nível 18 : Blinds 0/0, 10,000 ante

On a flop of 8♣A♥A♣, Eric Wasserson and Hong Wei Yu checked to Martin Nielsen on the button who bet 60,000.

Wasserson then check-raised to 215,000 and Yu got out of the way while Nielsen made the call to see the 7♦ on the turn.

Wasserson kept up the pressure by betting another 250,000 and after almost using a time bank, Nielsen made the call once more.

The river came the 9♥ and Wasserson checked to Nielsen who took a few seconds but eventually checked back.

"Ace-queen?" Wasserson announced as he tabled A♦Q♥, hoping it was good.

"Ace-queen is good," Nielsen replied as he sent his cards into the muck and the largest pot of the day was shipped to Wasserson.

Nível 18 : Blinds 0/0, 10,000 ante

Hong Wei Yu limped in from under the gun and it folded to Ivan Ermin on the button who moved all in for 412,000. Yu quickly called to put Ermin at risk and the cards were on their backs.

Ivan Ermin: A♦J♠
Hong Wei Yu: A♣K♣

Ermin was in need of help against the better ace for Yu, and when the board ran out J♦7♣6♣J♥Q♠, it was the trip jacks for Ermin that hit to score him a full double up off Yu.

On a flop of 6♣9♦Q♥, Eric Wasserson led out for 35,000 from middle position and Hong Wei Yu called from the button to see the turn 8♠.

Yu then decided to lead out for 90,000 and Wasserson looked slightly confused as he thought for a bit.

"Ok, you got it," he said as he slid his cards into the muck.

"Two-pair!" Yu announced but just showed the 9♠ as he was pushed the pot.
