Galic vs. Horecki
Sep 04, '09
 Team PokerStars Pro Marcin Horecki bet 2,000 on a flop of K104 from the button and Dragan Galic check-raised to 6,000 from middle position. Horecki thought for a moment, but then he decided to muck his cards. Part of that decision probably had to with the massive chip stack of Galic. He now holds 85,500 and his stack is among the largest during this young stage of the tournament.

Mattern Versus Marcin
Apr 28, '09
 Post-flop action saw Arnaud Mattern and Marcin Horecki circle around the pot, like two hungry but careful wild dogs around prey. The flop reads 9 5 2 and Mattern bets 4,000 from the shotgun. Horecki calls from the hijack. The turn is the 9, the Frenchman bets out again, this time 9,200, and the Polishman calls. The river is the 5, both players check and Mattern holds up the 2. It's not enough however, as it's way behind Horecki's pocket jacks.

Chen gets Horecki-d
Mar 10, '09
 Coming in late in the action to a board of K6410A, we're told that Andrew Chen (pictured left) has check-called Marcin Horecki all the way down to the river (including a raise preflop). There is about 5,000 in the pot and Horecki bets 2,975., Chen thinks about it for a little bit and then calls. He instantly mucks when Horecki shows 66.
"I guess you're not bluffing then!" says Chen despondently.

Tricky Tables
Oct 27, '08
A table to keep an eye on is one which includes the calm and collected Marcel Luske and online whizz Danny Ryan. Irishman Fintan Gavin is seated next to German Johannes Strassman on table 2, and Sorel Mizzi and Annette Obrestad are on neighbouring tables. Two players to watch out for today are, the above mentioned, Strassman who came seventh in the London EPT main event, earning a tidy sum of $211,700, and Marcin Horecki who did a good deal better in third place for $532,111 in the Victoria Casino just a few weeks ago.

Julian Thew Eliminated
Oct 03, '08
 Julian Thew ran into a series of unfortunate events that led to his untimely elimination from the tournament. First, he made a straight on a board of 10-9-8-Q, and moved all in after another queen fell on the river. Team PokerStars Pro Marcin Horecki had made quad queens when the queen fell on the river though, and this knocked Thew down to 50,000.
On the next hand a player in early position shoved and Horecki attempted to make a raise as he didn't understand that there was action in front of him. The floor decided to let him call and then Thew moved all in on top of both opponents. Horecki made the call, and the trio turned up their hands:
Thew: K-K
Horecki: A-Q
Opponent: K-Q
Board: A-8-5-3-7
Thew was eliminated in an excrcuciating turn of events and Horecki now has 175,000.
