WPT $25,000 Final: FINAL TABLE

[Djinn]

The next hand sees a sedate Paul vs. Kirk blinds battle over a flop.  Kirk bets 300k, called by Paul.
Turn:    Paul checks, Kirk bets 1.2 million - it's his.
_____________________________

Next set of blinds, Kirk vs. Guy - the flop, Kirk gets another one.
_____________________________

Next set of blinds doesn't get that far - Carlos calls preflop, Paul moves in (6 mil+), pass.

Right Said Guy is all-in!!!

[Djinn]

Kirk in the big blind calls a million raise from Guy.
Flop: .  Kirk checks, Guy puts in a 2 million bet.  Kirk strokes his tower of chips, and after a bit of a dwell (although less than when he flopped that set of Jacks, incredibly) calmly announces "all-in."  Call!  5,440,000 the amount he needs to match...

Guy shows: 
Kirk shows:    (of course...)

Turn: 
River: 

And that means Guy Laliberte is the 4th place finisher, winning $696,220.

[BigTomatoes]

 thats a sick call in my book

[Djinn]

Chip standings after that:

Paul Lee  7.1 mil
Carlos Mortensen  3.3 mil
Kirk Morrison  22 mil

And, would you Adam and Eve it, we have another all-in, Carlos Mortensen and Kirk Morrison moving all-in on the Turn of...



Carlos =

Kirk

River =

Carlos double up with top pair.

in the words of the virgin mary: "Come again?" He called an extra 5m reraise with AJ, with just the ?

5 million was the total after the check-raise.

[hartwith]

But still 3m extra right? And against a guy who had previously dwelt for 5 mins before calling with a set. Obv, not my place to comment, the guy clearly done exceptionally to get this far, just seems like a strange one to me.

[Djinn]

Here's a pic of chip leader Kirk Morrison.  Despite just doubling up Mortensen, he's still chipped up, as we see from the top-view- and you can see from these counts:

Kirk   17,600,000
Carlos   7,200,000
Paul   7,450,000

[snoopy1239]

On a sidenote, Carlos Mortensen is aiming to become the WPT's first 5 million dollar man.

Tough one, he had a lot in there. Not sure what I would have done, I think I would have checked the Flop to be honest.

[Benjo]

We just heard an announcement that the blinds are due to rise in seven minutes.  Seven!  That's terrible.  Only $7,700,000 still to play for...

Yes, typical WTP

where 22 v A3 allin preflop is a 'classic race'

or 'I can't believe he folded the A4 to the re-raise vince, un-b-leavable!!'

I never thought I'd be shouting 'crapshoot' at an event that started with 50k starting stacks and 90 minute clocks.

I told you guys but you did not listenned. Although when I said that the blinds were 200/400

[snoopy1239]

Paul Lee raises it up to 1.3 million with , Carlos smooth calls with .

Flop =

Carlos bet 1.1 million, Paul announced all-in before the chips had even hit the felt and Carlos called before Paul had barely finished saying all-in.

Turn =

River =

Double up for Carlos, Paul Lee down to the felt.

quick question guys on an entirely different note, how do you chat on UB?
