One Round Penalty for Hussin

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

After a raise to 1,700 and a call, a reraise to 4,100 was announced and Kamel Djemai then four-bet to 17,700, which only Stephan Hussin called and already exposed his cards. Hussin was unaware that Djemai still had chips behind and floor was called. His hand was ruled as still active but he would receive a one round penalty afterwards for exposing his cards.

The flop came {2-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {10-Clubs} and Hussin bet 15,000. Djemai moved all in for 19,700 and was called by Hussin with the {Q-Spades} {J-Spades}. Djemai turned over ]Kh] {K-Diamonds} and scored the double up after {9-Hearts} turn and {3-Diamonds} bricked out.

Bosmans Versus Lybaert

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Bart Lybaert raised to 1,600 and was called by Pieter Bosmans to see a heads-up flop of {10-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {2-Clubs}. The Belgian continued with a bet of 2,000 and was called before making it 4,500 on the {4-Clubs} turn. Again Bosmans tossed in the chips for a call and the {A-Diamonds} river was then checked down. Lybaert sheepishly turned over his {5-Clubs} {7-Clubs} and another club would have become very expensive, as Bosmans held the {K-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}.

Squeezed in between the two is Pieter de Korver.

Donation to Salewski

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

After a limp by Alain Medesan, another played open-shoved for 20,300 and Philipp Salewski called from the small blind, Medesan mucked. There was further action on a table nearby thus we missed the entire showdown but Salewski's {J-Hearts} {J-Clubs} held and scooped a nice boost to the own stack.

More Beer Needed

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Martin Mulsow has fallen all the way down to 10,000 but he is back to his usual tactics, though it remains unconfirmed for now whether or not the German wants to finish off one beer per level. Erwann Pecheux and the player in seat nine joined in and ordered fresh beers for themselves as well.

No Heart(s) for Fundaro

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Giacomo Fundaro
Giacomo Fundaro

The seat of Govert Metaal is empty and same applies to the spot where WPT champions club member Giacomo Fundaro had been sitting. Anthony Rodrigues raised to 1,500 from under the gun and faced the three-bet of the Italian to 3,100. Rodrigues four-bet to 8,500 and snap-called the shove of Fundaro for 30,000 with {K-Clubs} {K-Hearts}.

Fundaro was hoping for hearts or an ace, holding the {A-Hearts} {8-Hearts}. However, the board ran out queen-high and that was it. Rodrigues has since lost a few chips but still sits comfortably.
