One Down, Two to Go

Casualty No. 1
Casualty No. 1
We have lost our first bounty player in the shape of Erich Kollmann.

The rule concerning bounty-versus-bounty confrontations did not in the end have to be called in to use, as Kollmann was up against Thomas Hammerl, all in on an {8-Spades} {J-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} flop.

Kollmann: {9-Clubs} {9-Spades}
Hammerl: {J-Clubs} {10-Diamonds}

Turn: {8-Diamonds}
River: {5-Hearts}

Thus Mr Hammerl was up €250 while Mr Kollmann wandered off and started to take photos of those still in the game.

Vos Doubles Up Again

Mark Vos' tournament life was on the line once more, this time in great shape with {A-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} against Jurriaan Sarink's {Q-Clubs} {J-Spades}.

Board: {7-Clubs} {K-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {2-Hearts} {A-Spades}

Vos: "Wheee!"

Up to the heady heights of 4,600.
