Pardo the Interruption

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Spaniard Juan Pardo opened for 1,025 from the cutoff and Italian Luigi Curcio defended from the big blind. Both players checked the {10-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} flop, and then Curcio check-called a bet of 1,025 on the {10-Spades} turn.

Both players returned to checking on the {9-Hearts} river, and Pardo showed the {7-Spades}{4-Spades} for two pair. Unfortunately for him, it was no good as Curcio held the {10-Hearts}{j-Clubs} for trips.

What Do You Think of Johnny Lodden's Stack?

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Johnny Lodden

We missed most of the action, but we arrived on the river with a board reading {k-Clubs}{8-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and about 25,000 in the pot. Denis Pisarev had checked from the hijack, and Team PokerStars Pro Johnny Lodden did the same from the button.

Pisarev sheepishly rolled over the {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}, and then Lodden tabled the {k-Hearts}{4-Hearts} to win the pot.

Boeree Doubles Shorty

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Mauro Corsetti from Italy has been hanging around for dear life these last few levels. Every time it looked like he was close to busting he somehow clung on and survived. Back from the dinner break he was sitting on a stack of 7,800.

Liv Boeree opened from the button for 1,200 and Corsetti announced he was all in from the big blind. Boeree mucked her hand. The next hand Boeree again raised it to 1,200 and again Corsetti was all in. Kevin MacPhee in the big blind asked for a count (9,175) and made the fold.

Boeree though made the call with {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and wasn’t particularly happy to see Corsetti turn over {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}.

The board ran out {5-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} and Corsetti doubled up.

But It Was Suited

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Tobias Hagedorn three-bet in late position to 2,900 and Oleg Lichii four-bet small to 5,100, only the German called. On the {8-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{5-Diamonds} flop it was checked through, the {3-Spades} turn triggered a small continuation bet from Lichii that was called. Lichii then checks the {9-Spades} river and Hagedorn made it 15,300 to go. His opponent called rather quickly and tabled the {K-Clubs}{K-Spades} but Hagedorn had that beat with the {5-Clubs}{9-Clubs}.

Ramdin Flopped It

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

In one of the last hands before the break, Victor Ramdin doubled. We had forgotten about that hand, but now it all got back to us.

Dutch player Rob Sterken had opened under the gun and received two calls including Victor Ramdin on the button.

The flop brought the {8-Hearts}, {6-Spades} and {5-Spades} on the table and Sterken didn't make a continuation bet. The other player also checked to Ramdin who pushed all in for 7,700. Sterken made the call, the other player folded.

"I hope you have an over-pair" Ramdin said. And Sterken did. Ramdin was afraid his flopped nuts wasn't save just yet, bit it kinda was. Ramdin turned over {7-Clubs}{9-Clubs} after Sterken showed his {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}.

Sterken was drawing thin and had to say good bye to his precious chips after the {J-Hearts} hit the turn. The {2-Spades} on the river was one more blank and Ramdin doubled.

Ramdin, smiling as ever, stacked the chips and said something along the lines of "Thank you, now I don't have to start drinking yet". Sterken's smile was a little smaller, but we did hear him snigger a little.
