The Russians Are Coming!

Sergey Altbregin
Sergey Altbregin
Jeff Tims seems to be the most active player at the table lately. He's been battling back and forth with Chris Klodnicki, but has now found a new person at the table to go to war with.

On two recent hands, Tims has locked horns with Sergey Altbregin. The first hand was a Razz hand where Altbregin made a low of {8-?} {6-?} {3-?} {2-?} {A-?} to beat Tims. The next hand was a Stud hand where Tims folded angrily on seventh street to a bet from Altbregin.

Tims is down to 370,000 now, while Altbregin has moved up to 720,000.

More From the Razzlement

Razz

Chris Klodnicki raised and Jeff Tims reraised. Klodnicki reraised again and the two eventually got all in, with Klodnicki on the line. Here's how the boards ran out:

Klodnicki: ({A-?} {2-?}) {3-?} {4-?} {4-?} {6-?} {J-?}
Tims: ({A-?} {6-?}) {3-?} {8-?} {Q-?} {A-?} {Q-?}

Klodnicki was able to double on the hand to 240,000 chips.

Tims Beats On Klodnicki Some More

Razz

Chris Klodnicki doubled up to 140,000 on one hand of Razz before a hand came up where he had to bring in with a {9-?} showing. He decided to raise; Tims called with a {7-?} showing. On fourth, Tims drew a {6-?} and bet into Klodnicki who drew a {Q-?}. Klodnicki hemmed and hawed and then folded.

Tims showed {5-?} {4-?} underneath and said, "That queen could've have been a good card for you." to Klodnicki, because it may have saved him a lot of chips. Maybe even his tournament life. Klodnicki is down to 100,000.

Tims tabled {A-Spades} {K-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} for kings and sevens with a low using his ace and six. Klodnicki held sevens and fours and a worse low with {7-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {4-Spades} {2-Diamonds}.

Ace-high Call by Klodnicki

Limit Hold'em

Chris Klodnicki raised from the small blind before Jerrod Ankenman called from the big blind. The flop came down {K-Spades} {5-Spades} {3-Hearts} in the middle of the felt. Klodnicki bet out and Ankenman raised. Klodnicki made the call.

The turn was the {5-Diamonds} and Klodnicki checked. Ankenman bet and Klodnicki called.

The river was the {Q-Diamonds} and Klodnicki check-called again after taking some time in the think tank. He called with just ace high, {A-Clubs} {7-Clubs}, and was good against Ankenman's busted flush draw, {8-Spades} {7-Spades}.

Turner Takes Back

2-7 Triple Draw

Jon Turner just got some back versus Jeff Tims in another 2-7 Triple Draw hand. Betting prior to the first draw left Turner all in. Turner would stand pat through all three draws, while Tims would take one card each time.

In the end, Turner had a 9-8-7-3-2, while Tims paired up the end. Turner is back to 210,000, while Tims has just a few more than that with 215,000.
