"Pmarrsouth" Takes Out a Player
The flop came J62 and seat 1 bet 1,000. Peter "pmarrsouth" Marr called and the 5 fell on the turn. After much deliberation, seat 1 bet 4,000 and Marr instantly called. The river brought the 7 and seat 1 thought for a minute then announced he was moving all in. Marr made the call and seat 1 showed J6, but Marr showed Q3 and had rivered the flush. Seat 1 was sent packing and Marr saw his stack grow to around 45,000.
"Rizen" Rising Up The Rankings
Eric "Rizen" Lynch raised to 2,400 preflop and was called by the player in seat 3. The flop came 1074 and action was bet to Lynch, who bet out 3,000 prompting seat 3 to fold. Lynch now has around 22,000 in chips.
Brummelhuis Makes a Great Call
On a KQ10 flop, Michiel Brummelhuis bet 1,200 and was called by seat 1. Brummelhuis bet again, 3,200 on the 4 turn and seat 1 again called. The Q fell on the turn and Brummelhuis checked. Seat 1 bet 2,700 and Brummelhuis looked pained before electing to call. Seat 1 said, "I guess I should've bet more - Ten!" and flipped over the 10 for a pair. Brummelhuis happily turned over K7 for top pair and took the pot.
Ramdin Not Happy
On a J97 flop the player on the button moved all in, having Victor Ramdin covered. Ramdin did not like it. He slammed his hat on the table, amazed that the player made the move. Ramdin went into the tank for several minutes, knocking his stacks of chips over out of frustration. He eventually folded and said that he had aces for the first time today and they were no good. Ramdin is down to around 27,000 in chips.
