    WSOP 2011 Main Event Tag 2A: Sebastian Ruthenberg und Heinz Pius unter den Bigstacks Von Lilly Wolf 2.031 Spieler und Spielerinnen gingen gestern im Rio an den Start von Tag 2A des World Series of Poker Main Event’s. Darunter Chipleader Fred Berger, Sebastian Panny, Jason Alexander Dan Shak, Marcel Luske, Vicky Coren, Scotty Nguyen, Sebastian Sebastian Ruthenberg Ruthenberg, Heinz Pius, Jonas Klausen, (Bildquelle: PokerNews.com) Johnny Chan, Annette Obrestad, Martin Kabrhel, George Danzer, Florian Langmann, Jason Mercier, Phil Hellmuth und Daniel Negreanu. Double up: Am Board mit A [key:card_spades] Q [key:card_clubs] 10 [key:card_clubs] 9 [key:card_clubs] setzte George Danzer 7.700 und sein Gegner callte. Ein weiterer Spieler mit dem höchsten Stack am Tisch shovte. Danzer callte All-In mit 22.600 und der dritte Spieler foldete (er meinte ein Paar Zehn). „If you have a flush, you’re good,“ sagte der Bigstack und drehte K [key:card_diamonds] J [key:card_hearts] um. Danzer zeigte 4 [key:card_clubs] 2 [key:card_clubs] und damit den Flush. Die 9 [key:card_hearts] am River war bedeutungslos und Danzer konnte verdoppeln. Falsch gedacht: Phil Hellmuth’s Platz blieb zum Start von Tag 2a leer. Hellmuth der supershort war, tweete kurz danach: „Security broke into my room, I’m like, ‚What’s going on?!?‘ SGuard says, ‚You’re playing in the World Series of Poker today.'“ gefolgt von „I jump out of bed, dress, and run down to my car. Didn’t know you could drive 75 on side roads!! I Thought I played Day 2 Tuesday…“ Na Gottseidank hat ihm sein Freund Mike Matusow die Security geschickt.

  • Johannes Strassmann Und Jan Heitmann Für Den „
    Johannes Strassmann und Jan Heitmann für den „EPT Player of the Year Award“ nominiert Die fünfte Saison der European Poker Tour (EPT) wird am 9. September 2008 mit einer ganz besonderen Veranstaltung eingeläutet. Am Vorabend der EPT Barcelona Open werden im eleganten Opium Mar in der spanischen Metropole erstmals die European Poker Tour Awards verliehen. Präsentiert wird diese feierliche Zeremonie zu Ehren der besten Spieler und Leistungen während der gesamten vierten EPT-Saison natürlich von Team-PokerStars-Pro Daniel Negreanu, der schon bei der Verleihung der PokerStars Scandinavian Poker Awards im Februar 2008 souverän und mit einem gehörigen Schuss Humor durch das Programm führte. Aus deutscher Sicht besonders erfreulich ist die Nominierung der beiden PokerStars ShootingStars Johannes Strassmann aus Berlin und Jan Heitmann aus München. Beide sind in der wohl wichtigsten der insgesamt sieben Kategorien nominiert und dürfen sich berechtigte Hoffnungen auf den Titel des „Player of the Year“ machen. Natürlich hat es die Konkurrenz in dieser Kategorie in sich, denn die Liste der Nominierten wird durch Team-PokerStars-Pro Luca Pagano aus Italien, den Norweger Trond Erik Eidsvig und den Niederländer Thierry van den Berg komplettiert. In den weiteren Kategorien wurden unter anderem Team- PokerStars-Pro Bertrand ElkY Grospellier (Best Performance), Annette Obrestad (Best Newcomer) und Mike McDonald (Foto unten rechts) nominiert. Der 18-jährige Kanadier, der die EPT in Dortmund zu seinen Gunsten entscheiden konnte, ist gleich viermal für einen EPT-Award nominiert worden, unter anderem in den Kategorien „Best Newcomer“ und „Best PokerStars Qualifier“. Wer am Ende das Rennen machen wird, entscheidet in fünf Kategorien eine Expertenjury, die sich aus Team-PokerStars-Pro Victoria Coren, Teamkollege und EPT-Gründer John Duthie, dem ehemaligen Pokerroom-Manager von PokerStars, Lee Jones, und PokerNews-Chefredakteur John Caldwell zusammensetzt.

  • Caesars Cup: Team Europa Demütigt Amerikanische Mannschaft
    Caesars Cup: Team Europa demütigt amerikanische Mannschaft Von M. W. Im lange erwarteten Nationen-Team-Bewerb zwischen Europa und Amerika setzte es eine ganz klare 1:4-Niederlage für Doyle Brunson und Co. Annette Obrestad, Kapitän des europäischen Teams, bringt es auf den Punkt: „We destroyed them. They had no chance.“ Im ersten Macht machten die Finnen Patrik Antonius und Ilari „Ziigmund“ Sahamies kurzen Prozess mit Phil Ivey und Huck Seed. War dies schon eine kleine Überraschung, so war die nächste um so größer. Daniel Negranu, Kapitän Team Amerika, und der 11-malige WSOP Bracelet-Gewinner Phil Helmuth blamierten sich gegen Bertrand Grospellier und den BetfairPoker Qualifikanten und es stand 2:0. Einzig dem Altmeister Doyle Brunson gelang es mit Jennifer Harman an seiner Seite gegen Dario Minieri und Annette Obrestad zu siegen. Somit haben beide Kapitäne ihr Doppel verloren. Danach kam die Zeit der Dänen. Gus Hansen und Peter Eastgate ließen Barry Greenstein und John Juanda nicht gut aussehen – 3:1. Im letzten Bewerb trafen Obrestad und Seed im Heads-Up aufeinander. Die junge Norwegerin konnte den 4:1-Sieg perfekt machen. Sie sieht sich in ihrer Wahl – junge Spieler, älteren, erfahreneren vorzuziehen – bestätigt: We didn’t make that many mistakes at all and we didn’t get that lucky. The thing is in Europe there are not that many professional poker players like they have in the States. We don’t have any Doyle Brunson’s in Europe. Most of the guys who are experienced are young“, so Obrestad weiter. Daniel Negreanu sieht die Sache natürlich etwas anders: „First of all, in all the key situations, whether it was an ace versus an ace or whatever, they won every one of those.
