Veckey: 9 [key:card_hearts] J [key:card_clubs] Wheeler: A [key:card_hearts] Q [key:card_spades] Die Q [key:card_diamonds] am River brachte Wheeler den Drilling, doch dies reichte nicht für Veckey’s Straight. Jennifer Tilly ging all in mit einem 6-hoch Flush, doch ihr Gegner hatte das höhere ein 10-hoch Flush, somit musste sie an Tag 1 den Miranda Room verlassen. Auch Liv Boeree folgte ihr als sie ihre letzten 5,550 Chips in die Mitte schob und hatte einen Caller gefunden hatte.

Nguyen schob seine letzten 22,000 Chips vom Big Blind mit 9X 8X in die Mitte und Makhija callte. Das Board brachte keine Hilfe für Nguyen.

  • Hellmuth-Jelassi Skirmishes Add Spice to the World Series of Poker
    Hellmuth-Jelassi skirmishes add spice to the World Series of Poker Las Vegas – As the field of 2,378 players at Day 2B of the World Series of Poker Main Event dwindled to 855 Wednesday, players like Raja Kattamuri, Alexander Kostristyn and Victor Ramdin climbed their way up the leaderboard. But by the sheer force of their personalities, two players with fewer chips stole the show with a drama of their own. Phil Hellmuth, playing Phil Hellmuth, was the lead character. Ramzi Jelassi, the plucky poker player who wouldn’t back down, served as Hellmuth’s foil. And the rest of the players at the table had supporting roles. The fireworks began when Hellmuth, wearing a leather jacket over his UltimateBet „Poker Brat“ jersey and UltimateBet baseball hat, decided to push Las Vegas‘ Bobby Law all in with a sizable bet. „You think you’re just going to keep running over me?“ Hellmuth asked. Law, wearing a short-sleeved Green Bay Packers golf shirt, clearly had a good hand and didn’t know what to do. „You’ve got queens,“ Hellmuth said. „I know you’ve got queens.“ Then Hellmuth called for a clock and Law pushed back. „Everyone has been taking an hour to make a decision,“ Law said. Hellmuth quickly withdrew his request and started talking to his wife, seated at a podium immediately behind him. „Honey, honey, warm up the car,“ Hellmuth said, as Law continued to ponder his decision. Finally, Law mucked his hand, and Hellmuth revealed he’d bluffed Law out of the pot with a two and a four.

    WSOP 2008: Wieder Deutsche im Geld! Update (17:00 Uhr) Event #2: No Limit Hold’em USD 1.500 Auch am vierten Tag der 39. World Series Of Poker im Rio All- Suite Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas war die Szenerie kaum überschaubar. Drei Events gleichzeitig zogen die Railbirds in ihren Bann, darunter die Rekordveranstaltung, das USD 1.500 No-Limit Hold’em, das mit exakt 3.929 Startern bestgebuchte Side-Event in der Geschichte der WSOP. 448 Spieler hatten die Tage 1A und 1B überstanden. darunter auch PokerStars.de ShootingStar Johannes Strassmann, der mit 32.400 in Chips in Tag zwei gestartet war. Für den letzten im Feld verbliebenen Deutschen lief es zunächst überaus verheißungsvoll: In Level 12 (Blinds 1.000/2.000, Ante: 300) fand Strassmann, der seinen Stack bis dahin kontinuierlich aufgebaut hatte, Q [key:card_diamonds] Q [key:card_hearts] und callte mit dieser Hand die All-ins von gleich zwei weiteren Spielern, die A [key:card_spades] K [key:card_hearts] beziehungsweise 8 [key:card_spades] 8 [key:card_clubs] umdrehten. Das Board lautete J [key:card_spades] J [key:card_clubs] 7 [key:card_diamonds] 3 [key:card_spades] 9 [key:card_spades]. Somit nahm Strassmann in dieser Situation gleich zwei Kontrahenten vom Tisch und verbesserte seinen Stack auf satte 215.000, was ihn im Leaderboard weit nach vorn katapultierte. Kurz vor dem Dinnerbreak fand er mit K J zwei Buben auf dem Board und stackte auf annähernd 300.000 auf. Doch eine gute Stunde später war es mit der großen Glückssträhne vorbei. Mit einer leider nicht dokumentierten Hand verlor er exakt 144.500 Chips und zählte plötzlich zu den Shortstacks.
