Action CentralMar 13, '09 The feature table may be eye-catching but the other table has just been exploding with action and there is no wonder as to why. Florian Langmann, Marc Gork, Mike McDonald, Sandra Naujok, and Johan Storaker have been tangoing with each other for the last ten minutes. Storaker bet 39,000, Naujok called from the hijack, and Gork, who was on the button, called also. The flop came down AJ2 and the players checked it down. The turn was the 9 and Storaker bet 100,000. Gork said, "I can tell you her hand is Q-10. It's a nice bet!" He said speaking about Naujok and acknowledging Storaker's aggressive bet. Naujok and Gork folded and Storaker showed pocket jacks to the camera. Storaker is now on 1,350,000. Gork said looking at his phone, "My friend says you had jacks ... and now my girlfriend also told me you had pocket jacks. My friends are so great!" In the next hand, Gork raises from the button and Naujok calls. The flop comes KJJ and both players check. The turn is the 2 and Naujok bets 52,000. Gork pretends to check his phone, and smiles. He then mucks. He has 485,000 in chips and Naujok has 370,000. The hand after, Gork raises from the hijack to 35,000, and Langmann on the button, raises it to 100,000. McDonald who is on the big blind reraises it to 200,000 and Gork folds. Langmann contemplates it while McDonald goes a shade of pink. He eventually mucks. McDonald currently has 850,000. Player Tags: Johan Storakers, Mike McDonald, Florian Langmann, Sandra Naujoks, Marc Gork Andreas Hoivold Eliminated in 13th Place (â¬25,000)Mar 13, '09 The gentleman Andreas Hoivold has failed to repeat history this year. He has just busted out at the hands of Johan Storaker. All in with the lovely AK, Storaker tanked and said, "I really want to call!" He then decided to take him on and showed 99. The board fell 822410 and nines were enough to send him out of the tournament on day 3 in 13th place. He collects €25,000 for his troubles.
Player Tags: Johan Storakers, Andreas Hoivold Johan Storakers Eliminated in Fourth Place (â¬237,000)Mar 14, '09 Soon after, Sandra Naujoks is at it again. She started off the day quietly and is now unleasing the fury. Johan Storakers bets 170,000 and Naujoks pushes all in. Storakers calls. He flips over AQ but finds he is behind Naujok's AK. The board falls 98222x and Naujoks has done it again. Storakers, who wanted to finish in the top four to be able to buy the house he has been looking at, can do so, as he has scraped in to that top four, earning €237,000 for fourth. He leaves three Germans - one female, two males - to battle it out. Player Tags: Johan Storakers, Sandra Naujoks William Thorson Eliminated in Seventh Place (â¬116,500)Mar 14, '09 William Thorson has been moving all in and picking up the blinds. Eventually he got a caller in Johan Storakers. Thorson was on the button with about 11 big blinds left when he made the move, and Storakers beside him decided to call. Thorson showed 98 and Storakers had KJ. The flop looked good for Thorson, who clearly wants this title to add to his resumé - 10x97. The turn however brought the K and the river was no good for Thorson when it fell the 4. Thorson leaves the tournament in seventh place for €116,500 and he is terribly disappointed. His family has flown over and he has played amazingly well. He tells presenter Kara Scott, "I'm really disappointed ... It feels bad to be on the bad side of the luck."
Player Tags: Johan Storakers, William Thorson Cengizcan Ulusu Eliminated in Eighth Place (â¬83,500)Mar 14, '09 Shortly after being crippled by Mike McDonald's pocket kings, Turkish Cengizcan Ulusu moves all in for 256,000 and is called by Johan Storakers. Marc Gork then moves all in on top for 499,000 and Storakers calls. It's a three-way pot and their cards are: Gork: JJ Ulusu: J9 Storakers: 66 The board brings a gift for Gork, who just can't seem to lose today - QJ3. However, there is also the threat of a six-high flush with Storakers' pocket sixes. The turn and river bring only diamonds with the 4 and 2 and Gork's set takes the pot. Ulusu is eliminated in eighth place for €83,500 and Storakers takes a hit.

In The MoneyJun 18, '07 Tournament InfoPlay went to hand for hand halfway through level nine, and ended during the last hand of the hour. All remaining 78 players are officially in the money and guaranteed $3,507. Eliminations Johan Storakers was eliminated this past level, and he was replaced at the table by Erik Seidel. Dan Shak busted out shortly after his wife Beth made the final table of the $3,000 no-limit event when he ran into pocket kings with 9 7 and did not improve. Greenstein Stacks With Jacks Barry Greenstein raised to $3,500 from later position, only to have the player in the big blind reraise $12,000 more. Greenstein quickly pushed all-in for $25,500 total and his opponent called, revealing his 10 10. Greenstein turned over his J J and was firmly in the lead. The board came A 8 8 8 7, and Greenstein took down the pot, ending with $58,000. Just In Case, Jack Moments before hand to hand, an very interesting hand involving Nam Le came up. A short stacked player pushed all-in and Nam Le pushed his last $10,000 in behind him. The player in seat ten agonized for a while, and eventually folded pocket jacks. Heads up going into the flop against an all-in, Le revealed his pocket tens and the original raiser showed J 7. The player who folded jacks was sick, until Le hit a 10 on the turn. The player began to celebrate making the wrong fold, until the case jack hit the river, and he was once again sick about folding. With the money bubble burst, the pace of eliminations should pick up until the final table bubble tension builds, so make sure to check back for more action here at Cardplayer.com. Player Tags: Erik Seidel, Barry Greenstein, Nam Le, Johan Storakers Level Eight RecapJun 18, '07 Tournament InfoAround 150 players returned from dinner to finish out the last fifteen minutes of level seven, before blinds raised to $400-$800 with a $100 ante for level eight. At the end of the level only 108 of the 847players that started the day remained. Shak Attack Is Back Dan Shak is doing double duty, sweating his wife Beth who is among the 12 remaining players in the $3,000 no-limit event, while also playing at a table with Johan Storakers, Terrance Chan and Joe Tehan in the short handed event. With payouts starting after about thirty more bust outs, Dan and Beth could feasibly both be in the money tonight. Eliminations and Double Ups William Chen was eliminated when he ran K-9 into the Q Q of Ylon Schwartz. Vanessa Selbst and Joe Awada were also eliminated this past hour. Mimi Tran's tournament life was on the line with 10 10 against the A K. Her opponent took the lead on the flop, which brought the K 9 2. After the turn, Tran retook the lead when the 10 hit, but she still had to dodge a spade to survive. The river brought the 9, which filled Tran's boat and doubled her up. Erick Lindgren was also all-in this round. After a flop of A 8 3, Lindgren held the A 5 and his opponent 7 5. The turn brought the A, and Lindgren only had to dodge clubs going into the river. The 7 sealed the deal for Lindgren, who ended the hand with around $20,000. Players are currently on a short break as chips are being colored up.
