John Conroy has trebled up.

He moved all-in with Tens, only to be called in two spots by Jespen and Farid Meraghni.

Both players checked the Flop, before Farid bet 25k on the Turn with K-J.

Jespen folded.

River =

John takes the pot.

Early action:

Farid raises to 20k, takes the blinds.

Frederik raises to 30k, O'Flaherty dwells in the big blind and passes, Frederik shows

Patric raises to 23k in EP and is called by Faradi in the big blind, the latter check folding to Patric's 26k bet on a two spades board.

Conroy makes it 28k from the cut-off. Marius calls in the big blind.

Flop:



Marius checks, Conroy bets 45k, Marius makes it 125k, Conroy moves all-in instantly. Marius dwells a little but calls the extra 50k fairly quickly.

Marius:



John:



Turn:



River:



And a boated-up Conroy is up to over 450k, and the guy I tipped is now short with about 120k. Roll Eyes

Frederik raises to 35k on the button. Peter wakes up and makes it 205k. Frederik dwells for so long that I think he's going to call, but no, he passes.


Next hand Peter makes it 30k from the button, Andy passes his Two Diamonds, (Lee Jones says, "Right cards, wrong table."), Peter shows .


This is then followed by Marius pushing two hands in a row, swelling his stack from 112k to 158k.


Peter limps, and Patric checks the big blind and then check/calls Peter's 30k bet on the board, before folding to Peter's all-in on the turn.

Farid (who limps far too much for my liking) makes it 22k from the cut-off. Katja pushes all-in for about 74k more. Passed back round to Farid who calls.

Farid:



Katja:



Board:



Quads get a big round of applause here!

Farid hasn't let that hand knock him out of his stride, next hand, he makes it 22k again and everyone passes, he shows .

Incidentally, Lee Jones (who seems to have boundless enthusiasm wherever he is) has called this final, "Very old school," owing to the complete lack of cameras and TV table. Just a single rail around the final table, I'm not sure the players feel that cosy, but I think the atmosphere is better.

Back to the action, Farid limps again and Peter checks the big blind. The gets checked, and then Peter bets 40k on the turn which Farid calls, Peter then makes a 100k bet on the river, which Farid calls. Peter shows three diamonds and takes down the pot. Nice river bet.

Finally Farid and then Frederik both limp and Peter makes up in the small blind and Marius checks.

Flop:

Two Clubs

Peter checks, Marius bets 20k, Farid passes, Frederik moves all-in and Peter and Marius quickly pass.

Chip counts:

Frederik Holstrup Pedersen -- 245k
Peter Jepsen -- 580k
Marius Torbergsen -- 135k
Andy O'Flaherty -- 210k
Farid Meraghni -- 820k
Katja Thater -- 170k
Patric Martesson -- 220k
John Conway -- 348k

We've had an exit, and one that resulted in a 500k pot going to the Frenchman.

Farid Meraghni raised 30k, Patric Martensson moved all-in and John Conroy dwelt, lowering his sunglasses in the process.

Cool as ever with his mouth slowly jolting up and down as he chewed away, the calm Patric barely moved an inch.

Although John passed, Farid called and we had our all-in moment.

Farid =

Patric =

Board =

which means...

Patric Martensson is OUT and becomes the 7th place finisher winning €40,574
