Niveau 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

The cards were already splayed out in the aftermath of a hand with a board showing Kx8x3x3xQx. The defeated JxJx was turned over and the winning hand of QxQx of Rich Williams was showing as he added some more chips from the fallen player to his own stack which is more the 4X starting stack.

Williams hopes that bringing the attention to his stack does not jinx him as he referred to himself as "Jinx Williams" in the aftermath of the hand when he was asked to identify himself.

Steve Glasscock: A♥2♥

The dealer ran out a board of 10♦8♠2♣K♥10♠ securing a much needed double up for Pettersson. Glasscock told PokerNews that the funniest part of his last name is that his wife is a third grade teacher, which got a chuckle from his tablemates.

Niveau 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Mike Voigt went all in under the gun for his last 12,100. It looked like it might get through when it folded to the blinds, but the big blind woke up with it and made the call.

Mike Voigt: A♠9♠ All in
Big Blind: K♦K♣

The big blind appeared safe until the flop spread 2♠3♠7♣, at which point he cut out the 12,100 to pay Voigt, just as the 7♠ peeled the turn before the inconsequential 2♥ fell on the river.

Voigt clapped his hands before collecting his chips, as he received a breath of life.
