It’s double up or double out time! And here are our contenders!
First up, it’s a classic setup as Almira Skripchenko opened to 1,625 and the moved all in against Mehdi Messadi’s 4,100 three-bet. The latter then called off his 16,425 stack with :::9d:9s against Skripchenko’s :::Ad:::Ks – and Messadi held on when the dealer put out a board of :::Tc:::7s:::7h:::5c:::8h. Skripchenko is now the short one, she has about 8,000 remaining.
And in our second battle, Janeck Jansen had moved all in preflop for 7,500 with a call coming from Jesse Grossegger on the button.
Jansen: :::4c:::4s
Grossegger: :::Kh:::Qh
Somehow Jansen survived, dodging numerous bullets like in true ‘Neo’ style when the board came :::Ts:::2h:::8s:::6h:::2d. Jansen and Grossegger both have about 16,000 now.
