Hand #119-- Jesper Hougaard

Hougaard raised to 125,000 from under the gun and Wong counted down his stack before making the call in the big blind. The flop came {K-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {2-Spades}, Wong checked, Hougaard bet 400,000, enough to set Wong all in, and Danny folded, to the delight of Jesper's sizable number of supporters in the crowd.

Jesper Flexes.....Again and Again and ....

Jesper Hougaard has been running over this event. Not only is he the chip leader, but we're pretty sure the word "call" does not exist in his vocabulary.

Jesper is either raising or folding. Nothing more, nothing less.

The system seems to be working flawlessly, as the rest of the table refuses to get involved in a hand with him if possible. If there's a bet, and Jesper raises, you can count on the table ducking out of the way. Jesper continues to flex his chip muscles at the table, plowing through his opponents and snagging pots along the way.

Hand #118-- Jesper Hougaard

Wong raised to 130,000 under the gun and again Hougaard reraised, this time to 310,000. Kanter folded, Slaubaugh folded, Wong folded.

If this were a fight the ref would step in and stop it. Jesper Hougaard is beating this table up.

Hand #117-- Jesper Hougaard

Slaubaugh raised to 125,000 and Wong called on the button. Hougaard raised and made it 1 million to go. That number got everyone's attention--Kanter folded, Slaubaugh folded, Wong folded. And Jesper picked up the pot.
