Hand #92 - Oyvind Riisem

John Tabatabai has the button in seat 3.

First to act Oyvind Riisem raises to 60,000. Button Tabatabai makes the call, as does small blind Annette Obrestad and big blind McCullough. Family pot!

Flop: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades} Check round to Oyvind who bets 201,000 - that wins the pot for him - they all pass quickly.

Hand Analysis: Hands #81-90

Oyvind Riisem finally played a hand and the short stack doubled up against Johannes Korsar on Hand #81. That was an interesting call for Korsar with Q-8 vs. {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. All of a sudden, Korsar found himself shortstacked. The one-time chipleader in the tournament busted out on Hand #84.

Oyvind Riisem started playing poker and won three pots over the last ten hands. John Tabatabai increased his stack to over 3 million as he won four more pots.

Hand #89 - John Tabatabai

Annette Obrestad has the button in Seat 4. John Tabatabai raises to 60,000 and Matthew McCullough calls. The flop is {J-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} and both players check. The turn is the {6-Diamonds}. McCullough checks, Tabatabai bets 80,000 and McCullough calls. The river is the {2-Hearts}, McCullough checks, Tabatabai bets 275,000, McCullough folds, and Tabatabai wins the pot.
