Update: WSOP Day 3

Jochum is playing a aggressive game today. Everytime we walk by his table, we see action. Jochum got crippled when he ran into AA with his pocket kings. He was down to 60k and then he flopped a set deuces which were paid off by somebody who was holding KK. So now he’s back at 120k.

Pablo Ubierna, the former Live the Dream player from Spain, is doing fine in the Amazon room. Pablo usually wears his green headset, but today he’s wearing a purple one. Pablo is a proud member of the Spanish poker group ‘From Flop Turn The River’.

Update on our Spanish Players

Here's an update on our 4 Spanish players that made it to Day 3:

Luis Ubierna is now up to 80k. At the beginning of the day he lost a 20k pot with JJ vs K5 when his opponent hit trips on the flop. Luis later got his revenge and busted the guy with Q7 suited on a 745 flop (top pair and flush draw) against T7 taking a pot of 40k.

Luis Ubierna

Pablo Ubierna is at 222K, down from 250K after losing a big pot in the last hand before the break. Pablo tried to steal the pot with a 3bet but had to fold on the 4bet of his opponent. He is very happy with his table and will try to win some small pots using his chiplead on the table.

Pablo Ubierna

Ismael is down to 36k. His table got broken so he moved to the Amazon Room (table 339) and has to deal with new players. He is waiting for some good cards but for the moment he is blinding down…

Ismael Arribas

Javier Martinez from the Live the Dream team is up to 220k.

Chipcount Update

Updates on our Dutch Players

Yesterday the Netherlands lost the World Cup final against Spain, let’s hope today will be a happier day for our Dutch players Jochum Weenink and Koen Reefman!

Koen Reefman
Koen Reefman started the day with 50k and is sitting at one of the feature tables in the Amazon Room.

Jochum Weenick
Jochum started today with more than 100k and is sitting at the table next to Koen. Jochum lost a couple of small pots, on a 5d 6s Js flop he made a continuation bet and his opponent went all in. He had to throw away his hand. One hand later he opens UTQ + 1 and the woman on the hijack makes the call. On a A T Q flop, Jochum checks and the woman bets. Again he has to muck his cards. “Since you are standing there, nothing works for me!”, he complains with a smile.

We started this Main Event with 7319 players and there are now 2300 players left. They are playing 600-1200 with a 200 ante. Average is about 90k.

Updates on our French Players

Everest Poker has four French players that made it to day 3. They are Team Everest's Fabrice Soulier, Live the Dream Team's Julien Claudepierre, and online qualifiers Germain Gillard and Herve Muller.

Fabrice Soulier
Fabrice hasnt started very well today. He had decent starting hands but the flop structure has not helpful for him. He's also been dealing with a lot of opposition on his table. Here are some examples:

-His hand was QQ. The flop was AK7, he folded at the flop because the other guy reraised him after his Cbet.
-Then his hand was JJ, he raised at the bottom, someone from the blinds 3bet at 7K and he calls. The flop was 10 high with 2 diamonds. His opponent bets 9K and Fabrice calls. Then at the turn there is a Qh and the guy goes all in for 47K and Fabrice has to fold. He's now at 100K.

Julien Claudepierre
Julien started the day with 61K and he went down to 40K but hes up again to 61K.
