We Have Our Winner!
Throughout the tournament Vincent Laidet was one of the leaders of the pack, this consistency paid tribute to him during the finals where he always managed to stay ahead of the pack.
Vincent managed to keep a cool head and shortly after the final show-down between him and Hennie Appel, it came down to his hand winning high Ace.
We would like to congratulate all the players for a fierce competition!
Here are the final standings:
| 1 | 1st | Vincent Laidet |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | 2nd | Hennie Appel |
| 3 | 3rd | Jaco Storm |
| 4 | 4th | Eugene Du Plessis |
| 5 | 5th | Len Freeman |
| 6 | 6th | Kagiso Mabusela |
Final 2!
Jaco Storm shoved all in and Vincent Laidet called Jaco’s shove.
Jaco lost a very big hand against Hennie which put him on 80k… Jaco went all-in 3 times in a row and he won all hands, the one hand was 4 of a kind against Vincent’s flush. Jaco managed to get back a much better stack but sadly he eventually lost a all-in shove.
Jaco placed 3rd, taking home R222 202.50
It’s great to see you back Jaco and all the best to the last 2 players, Hennie and Vincent.
The cards were as follows (Vincent with the pair of Aces)
Final Table!
We are into the final 10 of the Last Chance Semi Freeze!
We are currently sitting on 4000/8000 blinds with the competition looking stiff across the board, at this point in time it is very difficult to try and predict who the winner might be.
The chip-leaders are as follows (unofficial count/guess):
| 1 | Nawal Jaftha | |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | Ricardo Rizzo | |
| 3 | Eben Lottering | |
| 4 | Paul Rowlston |
Another Stand-Off
Eugene Du Plessis shoved all in and Vincent Laidet called the shove.
Eugene has had a monster of a tournament, finishing 4th this time around.
The hands were as follows:
Eugene: 4♠ 4♦
Vincent: A♠ A♦
The flop, turn and river didn’t yield any cards for either of the players so Vincent won the hand with his pocket Aces.
Keep watching the stream! We are now in the final 3 spots!!!!!!
Your Main Event Top 4!
Len Freeman went head to head agains Jaco Storm, sadly Len lost his hand to a pair of Kings on the river.
Len is a familiar face and I am sure we will see him at the next event.
The hands played out as follows:
Len’s Hand: Q♦ 3♠
Jaco’s hand: 9♠ K♣
Flop: 5♠ 6♣ 6♦
Turn: 8♠
And finally Jaco’s winner on the river: K♠
Len finished 5th, catch the rest of the action on the stream!
