I just found a bit of paper under my laptop with some chicken-scratchy scrawling on it - it's Interesting Hands from Right Before the Bubble. While slightly out of date, I think they're relevant, as the recipients of chips still have them, and I like the title I was going to give it:
Swedes Mash It UpWhile Ramzi Jelassi hasn't had a wavering moment (I eavesdropped on a SikTilt video of his talking about his nice first day, replete with good cards, and second day, what with calling with raggy Aces good against Arnaud) building up to over 135k on the bubble, another young Swede Jonas Molander had an excellent twenty minutes in which he doubled up and then won one of the biggest pots going during that unexpected lull between losing player 77 and player 76.
First up it was David Kruger who doubled him up, raising with
and calling his all-in with what turned out to be a victorious
. "I didn't think you had A-K there," admitted Kruger. "Two hands in a row..." Fortunate timing, and a nice stack now.
I bet Asti Ruscalla didn't put him on the hand he had here either: He called Jonas' raise to 7,500 in the small blind, seeing a
flop. Ruscalla bet out what looked like just 6,500, and Jonas raised him to 16,700. Call.
Turn:
Both players checked
River: Check to Jonas who bet 16,900. After a good think about it, this got called too, and his
was good to take down the pot.
