Juanda Busts Gipson, Loeser Busts O’Dwyer, Holz Wins from Badziakouski
The action is coming to the boil now in the Triton Super High Roller Montenegro Main Event and there have been two bust outs already in the first 15-minutes of level 7 with Keith Gipson and Steve O’Dwyer heading for the rail.
Gipson’s bust out came right at the start of the level and while we missed the majority of the action we do know that Juanda, holding put Gipson all in on the river on a board reading [x][x].
Gipson was down to his last 100,000 chips before the hand began and called all-in for his tournament life but did not show down when Juanda flipped over the turned straight.
We saw Steve O’Dwyer heading for the rail with a cigarette in his mouth and called by his former table to find out the story of his demise. Germany’s Manig Loeser was the man to send O’Dwyer out and was kind enough to give us all the gory details.
“It was a pretty standard hand,” said Loeser, “I opened, Steve moved all-in for a little over 20 big blinds with ace-jack and I made the call with pocket tens, which held.”
Loeser climbed to 330,000 after the hand and O’Dwyer will be re-buying just as soon as he finishes smoking that cigarette.
Another man who will be sticking around a little longer is Fedor Holz, who has just won a hand from Mikita Badziakouski. We arrived at Holz’ table in time to see the German move all-in on the river for roughly 85,000 with around 70,000 already in the pot with the community cards reading .
Badziakouski looked sorely tempted and tanked long and hard over the decision but eventually decided to give it up and Holz raked in the pot to climb to 155,000 while Badziakouski dropped to 730,000, which we believe still leaves the Belarusian as the current chip leader.
