Luske with a Squeeze Against Geshkenbein and Loon
Vladimir Geshkenbein opened the action with a raise to 1,025 from late-middle position. Alex Loon made the call from the button and then action fell on Marcel Luske in the small blind. He fired in a three-bet to 4,200. The big blind folded, as did Geshkenbein. Loon also mucked and Luske picked up some chips.
If you haven't heard about Alex Loon, you better start soon. Loon has been crushing the APPT Macau series this year. After 11 events of play, Loon made six final tables. Out of those final tables, he won one event and came in second place in three others. That's a pretty amazing streak so far for the series. He's looking to top it all off with an awesome run in the Main Event here. He's amassed himself about 55,000 chips on Day 1a and looks poised to go deep. We'll see how he can do.
