The Ups and Downs of Michael Tureniec

We reported earlier that the table housing Michael Tureniec, Steve O'Dwyer and Marcel Bjerkmann would bring plenty of excitement and we were not wrong. Michael Tureniec just had a huge stack of chips and Marcel Bjerkmann did not, lending us to believe that the current EPT Copenhagen champion has been giving him a hard time. Here are two examples of monster hands involving that man Tureniec.

We are led to believe that there was a raising war between Alexander Manson, Marcel Bjerkmann and Michael Tureniec. We caught the action with 6,500 in front of Mason and 18,400 in front of Bjerkmann. Michael Tureniec put in a huge raise of 31,400, Mason folded and Bjerkmann made the call. The flop was {5-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {3-Spades} and Tureniec open shoved and Bjerkmann folded.

Tureniec had not finished building his wall when he was dismantling it again. He opened up to 2,200, in early position, and Tim Jaksland three-bet to 6,000 on the button. Action back on the Swede and he four-bet to 14,400.

"I am all-in," said Jaksland.

Tureniec made the call and flipped over {A-Spades} {K-Clubs} and Jaksland (who had 68,000 in total) flipped over {K-Spades} {K-Hearts}. The board of {J-Spades} {10-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {2-Spades} changed nothing and Tureniec was handed a substantial portion of his chips to Jaksland.
