Jared “BeamDoctorPoker” Halter Streams PokerStars Platinum Pass Invitational Victory

SandraBarbour

Niveau 6 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

The PokerStars Caribbean Adventure (PCA) is happening now, and later this month the PokerStars Players NLH Hold’em Championship (PSPC) will take place January 30-February 3. One man who will be heading to the Bahamas is 41-year-old Jared “BeamDoctorPoker” Halter, who won a Platinum Pass on PokerStars Michigan.

“I won a PSPC Platinum Pass on Wednesday, November 9,” Halter told PokerNews. “I had just returned from Vegas that morning on a red eye flight and slept for four hours on a friend’s couch before I drove home for two hours. To be honest, I was very fortunate to win because I had a very rough 72 hours. Some things happened in Vegas that caused me to have anxiety attacks for the first time in my life and I ended up only sleeping about five hours total in the previous 48.”

He continued: “I was exhausted and when the MTT started, I said to myself, it will take a miracle for me to win. Funny enough, I mis-clicked two different times early in the tourney and called three-bets with hands like 85o (I did not win those hands). I streamed the tourney, and only single tabled it, because of how tired and ungrounded I felt from the previous time. During the stream, I talked about how exhausted I was and how there was almost zero chance I win. Of course, as we know, the universe had a different plan.”

Hero Call Pays off for Kisacikoglu; Katz Exits

Kirk.brown

Niveau 7 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

After Orpen Kisacikoglu made it 30,000 preflop, the action was then on Cary Katz.

"Alright I'll gamble with you," he said as he threw in calling chips.

The flop came out and Kisacikoglu bet a measly 5,000 into the 60,000 pot.

"This guy's milking me! That's Mikita's job!" Katz joked as he tossed in a chip.

The turn came the and both players checked to see the on the river.

Kisacikoglu checked to Katz, who then bet 32,500, which left him with only 2,000 behind.
This sent Kisacikoglu deep into the tank, causing him to use several of his timebanks.

"What do you have? I can give you some help." Katz chirped after a while.

Kisacikoglu then set a stack of chips in front of him to make the call and Katz flipped over for a bricked straight draw which left him with only seven-high. Kisacikoglu then rolled over for a whopping ace-high to take the massive pot.

"Wowww I guess nobody believes me anymore," Katz sighed as his chips were pushed to Kisacikoglu. Katz then proceeded to bust the very next hand to none other than Makita Badziakouski.
