State of Play

Play has changed only slightly since returning from the break. With the blinds creeping up ever so slightly, we are seeing players call raises a little more frequently.

However they are mostly folding to continuation bets on the flop. Alexander Debus has taken the most advantage of this, slowly chipping away at the remaining four players stealing their blinds and antes and on his way rebuilding his stack.

Level: 22

Blinds: 10,000/20,000

Ante: 2,000

Battle between Chip Leaders

After a slow level we have finally had a bit of action to jolt some cheers from the rail.

Alexander Debus made it 44,000 from the small blind and with the action on Thomas Lindbjerg in the big blind, he reraised to a further 116,000. Debus asked for a count and then put in another raise to 244,000 this time, and was immediately met with an all in shove from Lindbjerg.

Debus shook his head and released his hand as he slipped down to 360,000 as Lindbjerg climped to 940,000 in chips.

No Need to Worry

Nearly time for some sleep
Nearly time for some sleep
No need to worry . . . the PokerNews desk hasn't lost it's internet connection, the Crown Casino hasn't lost power, play is just really, really, really slow.

Since the change in levels almost 40 minutes ago, we have only seen two flops when both blinds checked the action down. We have seen one reraise preflop, otherwise the big blind is getting a walk or a single raise is taking the blinds and antes.

Level: 21

Blinds: 8,000/16,000

Jonathan Dull moved all in from under the gun for his last 99,000 and with it folding around to the chip leader, Thomas Lindbjerg, he tanked for a few minutes before making the call.

Dull: {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}
Lindbjerg: {K-Spades}{9-Spades}

Having a slight lead going into the flop, Dull couldn't maintain it when the board fell {9-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{4-Spades} to see Dull head to the rail in 6th place for AU$23,940 in prize money.
