Full Tilt Doubles Poker Championship Playoff Field Se

On Saturday, the 16-person playoff field was determined in the Full Tilt Doubles Poker Championship on GSN. The show airs new episodes every Saturday at 9:00pm ET. Over the weekend, the final two qualifying matches for the playoffs were held.



Teammates alternate action by street on Doubles Poker and cannot talk strategy at the table if they have cards. Instead, each team is given one 30-second time out to banter about a hand. Each player bought into the made-for-television tournament for $50,000 and David Tuchman and Full Tilt Poker pro Brandon Adams have the call of the action.



In the first match, Tony G teamed with Phil Gordon, Vivek “Psyduck” Rajkumar teamed with Phil Hellmuth, Gus Hansen paired with Johnny Chan, and Carlos Mortensen teamed with Erik Seidel. The group consisted of three former World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event champs. Chan was a perfect 3-0 in preliminary matches and players jockeyed to get to 35 regular season points, which would likely be needed to make the playoffs.




Mortensen folded pocket jacks pre-flop to try to allow Seidel to climb up the points ladder and avoid a fourth place finish, but it wasn’t meant to be, as they were eliminated first after flopping top pair with 9-4 on a board of 8-2-9. Tony G and Gordon held pocket tens for an overpair and Seidel and Mortensen were sent packing with zero regular season points.



Then, Hansen 3bet all-in pre-flop with A-4 and Tony G, a PartyPoker pro, made the call with a wired pair of queens. Chan and Hansen could not improve and they were eliminated in third place. As a result of the four-point boost, Chan secured his position atop the overall leaderboard at 64 points.



To end the first match of the one-hour show, Rajkumar and Hellmuth took down the title after their pocket sevens held against Gordon and Tony G’s 5-4 on a flop of 3-J-4. The turn was an ace and the river was a ten, giving each of the winners 20 points towards the regular season standings. As a result, Rajkumar, Tony G, Gordon, and Chan all eclipsed the 35-point plateau and earned a playoff birth.



In the second qualifying match, Andy Bloch teamed with Nick “The Takeover” Schulman, David Chiu paired with Phil Laak, Howard Lederer teamed with Greg Mueller, and Phil “OMGClayAiken” Galfond teamed with Victory Poker’s Antonio Esfandiari.



In just the second hand of the match, Bloch and Schulman elected to gamble with A-Q all-in pre-flop and ran into Chiu and Laak’s Big Slick. However, Bloch and Schulman flopped a queen and no king came for “The Unabomber” and Chiu on the turn or river to save the day. They busted in fourth place, leaving Laak to lament that he hadn’t even played a hand.



Galfond and Esfandiari got it in with 9-7 on a board of 10-10-8 with two clubs. After some deliberation, Bloch and Schulman called with J-9 for an open-ended straight draw of their own. The turn was another club and, with Bloch and Schulman holding the only club, the card left Galfond and Esfandiari drawing thin to the river. The final card was a blank and Galfond and Esfandiari hit the rail in third place.




Mueller and Lederer ultimately won the match and Bloch came up short of his must-win bid for a playoff spot. Now, the post-season field is set in the Full Tilt Doubles Poker Championship on GSN. Here are the pairings:



Johnny Chan and Erick Lindgren

Howard Lederer and Phil Gordon

Phil “OMGClayAiken” Galfond and Annette “Annette_15” Obrestad

Greg Mueller and Vivek “Psyduck” Rajkumar

Nick Schulman and Andrew “luckychewy” Lichtenberger

Tony G and David Benyamine

Huck Seed and Allen Cunningham




In addition, Phil Ivey, Chris Ferguson, and Toto Leonidas, who are all knotted at 35 points, will play a match to break the tie and two of them will move on to form the final playoff team.



You can catch new episodes of the Full Tilt Doubles Poker Championship every Saturday at 9:00pm ET on GSN.

Full Tilt Doubles Poker Championship Playoff Field Set :: CHILLOUT-POKER.COM - Poker Streaming - Poker Videos - Poker News

Carlos Mortensen to Captain Spanish World Team Poker Squad

Inside sources at World Team Poker tell Poker News Daily that Team Spain, which did not participate in the first tournament back in May, has filed its roster. The captain of the squad will be former World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event champ Carlos Mortensen, who has banded together a team that brings great skills in all aspects of poker. Joining Mortensen on the roster will be the highly underrated Raul Paez, Santiago Terrazas, Oscar Blanco, Cayetano Garcia, and Leo Margets.



Mortensen has spent the last decade at the forefront of the poker world. Since his first cash in a tournament back in 1999, Mortensen has traveled the world as a player, with results that any top pro would be proud to own. At the WSOP in 2000, Mortensen cashed in his first event and, one year later, would become (at the time) only the sixth foreign-born player to win the Main Event. He has added a second bracelet by winning a $5,000 Limit Hold’em event in 2003.



Mortensen’s success hasn’t been limited to just his 21 cashes at the WSOP. He has won three tournaments on the World Poker Tour (WPT), including the 2007 WPT Championship. This win was a significant achievement, as it made Mortensen the only man to win both the WSOP Main Event and the WPT Championship. His victory at the Hollywood Poker Open earlier this year pushed Mortensen to the top of the heap in all-time money winnings on the WPT, passing Daniel Negreanu. For his career, Mortensen has almost $10 million in earnings with his wealth of championships.




Raul Paez has battled on poker tables around the world while establishing himself as one of the most underrated players in the game. His first tournament cash was in 2003 and, since that point, he has cashed in tournaments in the United States, Spain, France, Germany, Poland, England, and the Bahamas. While he hasn’t won on the major tours, Paez has been able to garner six WSOP cashes, two cashes on the European Poker Tour (EPT), and a final table finish in 2006 on the WPT.



Santiago Tarrazas has been in the game just as long as Mortensen and Paez, with a great deal of success in his own right. Although he lacks a major title, Tarrazas has earned a cash in the WSOP Main Event in 2007 and, just last year, finished in third place at the EPT Barcelona Championship Event. Tarrazas has over $650,000 in career tournament earnings from his travels across Europe.



Oscar Blanco has been a terror on the Spanish poker circuit since coming to the felt in 2006. He was the best All-Around Player during the 2006 Campeonato de Espana and, later that year, took a title during the L.A. Poker Classic’s preliminary schedule. Most recently, Blanco was the runner-up at the Partouche Poker Tour’s stop in Madrid, earning slightly over $65,000 for that cash in July. Blanco’s career earnings pass the $400,000 mark and signify that he may be the “wild card” of the Spanish team, as opponents may not have any prior history with him.



Cayetano Garcia is the oldest player on the squad, but his years on the tables have provided him with excellent skills. Although his tournament results only date back to 2007, Garcia has made the most of his time with a championship on the Spanish Poker Tour in 2008 and a seventh place finish in 2009 at the WPT Spanish Championship. 2010 has been the best year of Cayetano’s short tournament poker career, with roughly $82,000 in cashes as a part of his $250,000-plus career earnings.



Since making her mark as the “Last Woman Standing” in the 2009 WSOP Main Event, 888 Poker’s Leo Margets has continued to impress fans and opponents with her success on the tables. She made the final table of this year’s Aussie Millions $2,000 Six-Handed No Limit Hold’em tournament and earned another cash in a similar tournament at the WSOP. Margets has over $476,000 in tournament earnings and continues to be in the hunt for her first major title.



This month, the latest World Team Poker event is expected to run, although a location and date have yet to be determined. Team Spain will face an uphill battle against teams from the United States, Australia, and Canada. In the inaugural World Team Poker event, Team China, led by captains Johnny Chan and David Chiu, took down the title.

PokerStars UKIPT Season 2 Schedule Announced

Nine cities will play hosts to tournaments as part of Season 2 of the PokerStars U.K. and Ireland Poker Tour, more commonly called the UKIPT. The first cycle of the tour is wrapping up now in London in conjunction with the European Poker Tour’s (EPT) stop in the British capital.



Newly minted PokerStars pro Liv Boeree, who parted ways with UB.com before the start of the 2010 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event in Las Vegas, will play a major role promoting and participating in the second season of the UKIPT when it gets underway in December. Boeree commented in a press release distributed by PokerStars on Friday, “I can’t wait to play the UKIPT this year as a Team PokerStars Pro. The first stop in Galway is sure to have a stellar field and a huge prize pool, so it would be great to kick off the season with a win there!”



The €1,000 + 100 UKIPT Galway poker tournament begins on December 2nd and will crown a champion three days later. The prize pool is guaranteed to be €250,000 and the field is capped at 400 entrants.

The tournament is slated to have a buy-in of €500 + 60 along with a €100,000 guaranteed prize pool.

James Bord Wins World Series of Poker Europe Main Event

What started as a field of 346 entrants in the 2010 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Europe Main Event played down to a winner on Tuesday night. When the smoke cleared, Britain’s James Bord took down the title on his home turf at the Casino at the Empire in London. The £10,000 buy-in event marked just the second WSOP Europe tournament he had ever entered.



Bord started the final table in fifth place on the leaderboard and, after the field was whittled down to six players, Daniel Steinberg hit the rail. In his final hand, Steinberg called the 4bet of Ronald Lee with A-J of clubs for his tournament life. Lee flipped over pocket fours, setting up a race situation. The board ran out Q-9-6-3-8 and Steinberg was relegated to the rails, albeit with his bank account growing by £156,000.



Nicolas Levi was the next to depart. Seven hands after Steinberg was eliminated, Levi followed suit after calling all-in before the flop with a wired pair of nines. Lee was once again the executioner and showed K-Q, including the queen of hearts, for another coin flip. The flop came 8-5-4, all hearts, giving Lee additional outs if a fourth heart were to hit. Instead, the turn was a king and, down to his last out, Levi watched as the 10 of spades hit on the river. Levi collected £208,000.




Live poker Triple Crown winner Roland de Wolfe was ousted in fourth place from the 2010 WSOP Europe Main Event. The WSOP bracelet winner, European Poker Tour event champ, and World Poker Tour victor hit the skids in a blind-versus-blind situation. In the small blind, de Wolfe moved all-in and tabled K-Q; he was up against Fabrizio Baldassari’s A-8. Baldassari flopped two pair and de Wolfe was eliminated with £278,000 to show for his efforts.



Bord moved all-in with A-3 and received a call from Lee, who showed K-Q. Lee bricked out and Bord doubled up as a result. The Brit’s rail, which included fellow poker pros Andrew Feldman and Sam Trickett, erupted in celebration. Baldassari then drew out on Lee’s A-K with A-4 to lodge a double up of his own.



After the pair of courtesy double ups, Lee found the exit after 3betting all-in with pocket fives. Bord insta-called with A-K and hit a king on the flop. Another cowboy came on the river and coverage found on WSOP.com detailed the scene: “Bord was jumping up and down with them while they crowded the rail, going nuts for their mate.”



Heads-up, Bord doubled with A-K against Q-8 and, in the tournament’s final hand, pocket fives once again went down in flames. This time, Baldassari 4bet all-in with “presto” and Bord called with a wired pair of tens. The better pre-flop hand held and the 29 year-old Bord took down the 2010 WSOP Europe Main Event title.



Bord made the final table of a $1,500 2-7 Draw Lowball tournament in Las Vegas during this year’s WSOP for $13,000 to come within inches of his first bracelet. On finally breaking through, he told WSOP officials on Tuesday night, “I never thought I would win a bracelet. Being so close, you just never know when it’s going to come again. And it’s even more special to win it in my hometown. It’s just something very special.”



Here’s how the final nine players cashed out in the 2010 WSOP Europe Main Event in London:




1. James Bord – £830,401

2. Fabrizio Baldassari – £513,049

3. Ronald Lee – £376,829

4. Roland De Wolfe – £278,945

5. Nicolas Levi – £208,119

6. Daniel Steinberg – £156,530

7. Dan Fleyshman – £118,643

8. Brian Powell – £90,617


9. Marc Inizan – £69,754



Bord joined Phil Laak, Jeffrey Lisandro, Scott Shelley, and Gus Hansen as bracelet winners in London this year. Visit WSOP.com for more information.

Ronald Lee Leads WSOP Europe Main Event with Six Left

The Main Event of the 2010 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Europe schedule is in progress from the Casino at the Empire in London. With six players remaining, Ronald Lee leads the way with a stack of 3.4 million.



The pace has been fast and furious so far. In fact, it took just 25 hands for a rare double elimination to occur. Marc Inizan shoved all-in for his last 313,000 and Brian Powell re-shoved over the top. Lee made the call, having both of his opponents covered, and the cards were turned up. Lee held A-K, while both Inizan and Powell tabled pocket eights.



The flop came J-6-10, potentially leading to double ups for both all-in players, but Lee spiked a king on the turn to put the hand away. With no eights left in the deck, Inizan and Powell were drawing dead to the river, which was a meaningless four. Lee catapulted to over three million in chips following the double execution, while Inizan banked £54,000 for his ninth place finish and Powell collected £69,000 for eighth. Lee owned the second largest stack coming into the day.




Nicolas Levi then put a dent in Lee’s chip stack after doubling up with K-Q of spades against pocket fives. The action flop came 6-3-4 with two spades, giving Levi a flush draw in addition to his two overcards. Lee held an open-ended straight draw and the best hand with a pair of fives and the turn paired the board. However, Levi struck lightning in a bottle on the river when a red king hit to give him the critical double up. Levi shot up to one million in chips following the hand.



Danny Steinberg also doubled up on Tuesday after getting it all-in with pocket kings pre-flop. Victory Poker CEO Dan Fleyshman made the call with A-Q and the flop came 10-10-10, giving Steinberg a boat. A running 8-6 sealed Steinberg’s double up and crippled Fleyshman.



The Victory Poker front man found the exit in seventh place after getting it in with J-10 of diamonds before the flop on the 76th hand of final table play. Lee called, turned over K-5 offsuit, and promptly hit a king on the flop to claim a stranglehold in the hand. The turn was an eight, giving Fleyshman a straight draw to a nine, but an ace on the river sent him packing with a £118,000 payday in tow.



Steinberg now sits in second in chips with 2.2 million. However, he still falls short of Lee’s stack by over one million. Here’s how the leaderboard looks with six players remaining:



1. Ronald Lee – 3,465,000

2. Danny Steinberg – 2,171,000

3. Nicolas Levi – 1,660,000


4. Roland de Wolfe – 1,500,000

5. Fabrizio Baldassari – 895,000

6. James Bord – 800,000



Lee has just one WSOP cash to his name, a $3,600 haul for finishing 108th in a $1,500 No Limit Hold’em Six-Handed event in Las Vegas this year. The student and poker player from New York is in prime position to make a run at the £830,000 first place payday.



Roland de Wolfe has completed the live poker Triple Crown, winning a WSOP bracelet to go along with World Poker Tour and European Poker Tour titles. He became the just second person ever to accomplish the feat (Gavin Griffin is the other) after taking down a bracelet in 2009 in a $5,000 Pot Limit Omaha High-Low Split Eight or Better event. De Wolfe also finished fifth in a $1,500 No Limit Hold’em contest last year for $113,000.

Ronald Lee Leads WSOP Europe Main Event with Six Left :: CHILLOUT-POKER.COM - Poker Streaming - Poker Videos - Poker News

Phil Ivey, Viktor Blom Ousted from WSOP Europe Main Event

At the time of writing, 15 players remain in the £10,000 buy-in World Series of Poker (WSOP) Europe Main Event. Arguably the two biggest names in the field, Full Tilt Poker pro Phil Ivey and Viktor Blom, the person many believe to be behind the “Isildur1” moniker, both found the rail on Monday.



Blom 3bet all-in before the flop with pocket eights and received a call from Brian Powell, who held K-Q to set up a race situation. The flop came 7-7-Q, giving Powell queens-up and the lead in the hand, and no help came for Blom on the turn or river.



Blom refused to chat with the media following his elimination. Coverage found on WSOP.com detailed, “Blom was whisked away to the interview booth where, true to form, he declined to speak. The production crew insisted, but Blom fought back, basically telling them he ‘didn’t want to talk about it.’ The crew told him to simply say that, as any tidbit of an interview would be viral gold. Blom simply walked off, though, relegated to the rail with 15 players left.”




Before he was eliminated, Blom busted Thomas Bichon from the WSOP Europe Main Event. Bichon departed in 20th place after Blom’s K-Q drew out on his A-Q. Blom hit a king on the flop to leave Bichon drawing to three outs and moved to 900,000 in chips.



Ivey, who is also reluctant to speak with the media, found the exit in 19th place to pick up £26,000. Ivey ran A-10 into Ronald Lee’s A-K in his final hand and, when a king hit on the turn, Ivey was drawing dead to the river. Ivey came within 18 players of his ninth WSOP bracelet and second of 2010. His latest piece of hardware came in June in a $3,000 HORSE event in Las Vegas. That tournament saw Ivey best Bill Chen heads-up in a final table that also included former WSOP Europe Main Event champ John Juanda, Jeffrey Lisandro, and PokerStars pro Chad Brown.



Two-time bracelet winner Greg “FBT” Mueller busted in 22nd place to pick up the same £26,000. He ran A-Q into Powell’s A-K on his final hand. The dealer put four cards to a straight on the board to give Mueller some hope for a chop, but the river paired the board to send the accomplished Canadian packing. Both of Mueller’s bracelets came last year, one in a $1,500 Limit Hold’em Shootout and one in the World Championship of Limit Hold’em.



Here is the field that remains in the 2010 WSOP Europe Main Event midway through Day 4:



1. Ronald Lee – 1,727,000

2. Dan Fleyshman – 1,460,000

3. James Bord – 1,359,000


4. David Peters – 835,000

5. Nicolas Levi – 729,000

6. Daniel Steinberg – 702,000

7. Brian Powell – 675,000

8. Fabrizio Baldassari – 602,000

9. Andrew Pantling – 397,000

10. Hoyt Corkins – 384,000

11. Roland de Wolfe – 345,000

12. Clint Coffee – 330,000


13. Barny Boatman – 310,000

14. Marc Inizan – 244,000

15. Arnaud Mattern – 225,000



David Peters final tabled Event #1 of WSOP Europe, a £2,650 buy-in No Limit Hold’em Six-Handed tournament. Also gunning for his second final table in London this year is Andrew Pantling, who finished second to Phil Laak in the same Six-Handed event for £105,000. Dan Fleyshman is the CEO of the Cake Poker Network site Victory Poker.



Each of the 15 players left standing is assured £42,000 and the winner will walk away with £830,000.

Phil Ivey, Viktor Blom Ousted from WSOP Europe Main Event :: CHILLOUT-POKER.COM - Poker Streaming - Poker Videos - Poker News

Gus Hansen Wins First Bracelet in WSOP Europe Heads-Up Event

On Thursday, action in Event #4 of the 2010 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Europe schedule, a £10,000 No Limit Hold’em High Roller Heads-Up tournament, ground to a screeching halt after Gus Hansen and Jim “Mr_BigQueso” Collopy were deadlocked at one match apiece. With both combatants taking to the felt in the WSOP Europe Main Event on Friday for Day 1B, the question of when the duo would resume their best-of-three final loomed large. Yesterday, it was revealed that the two would take to the felts on Sunday at 6:00pm local time.



Three hours later, Hansen walked away with his first WSOP bracelet after edging out Collopy in the event’s rubber match to earn a bounty of ₤288,000. The Main Stage at the Casino at the Empire played host to the final match. On the tournament’s last hand, Collopy 3bet all-in with K-4 of spades and Hansen called with a wired pair of fours. Collopy picked up a flush draw on the turn, but no king or spade fell, giving Hansen his first WSOP victory and, more importantly, a sleek gold bracelet.



In one of the key hands of the final battle between Hansen and Collopy, the former shoved all-in on a board reading 8-J-J-5-2. Collopy made the call in a heartbeat and showed Q-J for trip jacks, while Hansen tabled ducks for a rivered full house. Hansen pulled out to a 2:1 lead in chips following the two-outer, forcing Collopy to battle back for his tournament life.




Hansen ultimately let Collopy draw back to even, but the veteran pulled out the win in fashionable style. En route to his dramatic showdown with Collopy, Hansen bested a minefield of poker talent by winning heads-up matches against Max Steinburg, Mark Everett, 2009 WSOP November Niner and fellow Full Tilt Poker pro Phil Ivey, Neil Channing, and Andrew Feldman.



Collopy jumped out to an early lead against Hansen in match #3 after leading out for 450,000 on a board of 6-5-3-9-J. Hansen tanked before making the call and Collopy turned over pocket aces. Hansen mucked and Collopy shot up to 2.8 million in chips for a 2:1 lead. However, he could not fend off the three-time World Poker Tour champion.



Hansen now owns nearly $1 million in WSOP cashes. His two claims to fame on the WSOP felts prior to Sunday’s bracelet win were a $123,000 haul for final tabling the $50,000 HORSE Championship at last year’s WSOP and a 61st place showing in the 2007 Main Event in Las Vegas for $154,000. Collopy had never made a final table in a WSOP tournament prior to Event #4 in London.



The tournament received love from ESPN cameras in attendance covering the Main Event. The network is in the midst of airing the Las Vegas Main Event every Tuesday night. This week, Day 6 of the $10,000 buy-in tournament will play out, with a feature table headlined by Matt “mcmatto” Affleck. The online poker pro took 80th in last year’s WSOP Main Event and made a strong run once again in 2010. You can catch all of the action beginning at 9:00pm ET.
