Rettenmaier makes a steep climb to a player who completes the blind just before him and receive the call. The monochrome flop of spades, J94 and the first player makes a checkraise on the flop. Rettenmaier up in turn and your opponent calls. The turn is another J and the original limper makes check call a bet than a third of the boat.

The 22nd Poker Championship is coming up. It takes place in this year of 24 October to 3 November. On 10 October you have the last chance you online with bet-at-home for this special event to qualify.

A long and successful CAPT season is coming to an end. The culmination of the year at Casinos Austria Poker is the Poker EM in Baden near Vienna. Highlights of the festival are the Poker Poker Championship No Limit Hold’em and in the final of the CAPT. In total there are 17 events with buy-ins between € 150 and € 4000 will be full to bursting with up to six million to the participants and the prize pool.

In the Qualifiers to bet-at-home you can earn you a € 3,000 package that both the buy-in can be used for the CAPT Baden European Poker Championship as well as for the No-Limit Hold’em. For this reason, we want to compare different times both ways with each other.

While with the CAPT 20,000 chips and 60 minute levels indicates, the European Poker Championship with 30,000 chips and 75 minute levels (levels 1-10: 60 minutes) even has the same structure as the EPT main event.
Logo Poker EM 2011

For the CAPT Baden has a buy-in of € 2,000 and € 1,000 for you to stay travel and accommodation. In addition, the field will probably be here a lot softer, the prize pool but also much smaller.

If you decide you to the package for the European Poker Championship with a buy-in use of € 4000, then you have to bear the difference themselves. Moreover, the competition will be stronger here, since tournaments with big buy-ins attract according to experience many top players.

However, the structure is much better and there is more time for maneuvering. In addition, the number of participants to be larger and you will have the chance to have a much higher prize pool.

So both have their advantages and disadvantages. What you ultimately decide you is entirely up to you.

It is established that Baden is one of the best casinos in Europe. Even the poker brat Phil Hellmuth himself was here once before as a guest and said: “Swimming is a great tournament in a beautiful setting.”

Also Michael No one comes forth again and again like: “I feel always very comfortable in Bathing. The Austrians are simply in terms of poker is much more advanced than the state Casinos in Germany, where more or less free competition takes place in Germany and einbremst still the unspeakable gambling monopoly of every free state develop rigorous. ”

This outstanding event you should cause you to not miss and use the last chance to get a ticket for bathing. We wish you much fun playing and good luck!

The first PokerStars EPT played in the history of Greece has managed to save the furniture and exceed the 282 participants EPT Tallinn, The first of the eighth season of the circuit and debutante.

In the end, the total 336 participants in the main event, we 232 survivors which include Spanish 12 for the second day.
The bulk of the Navy played day 1B, usually the most requested by a minimum allowing more flexibility on dates and shortens a little expenses. The average level of the players present is also higher, but that has not prevented nine of us reach the day 2, Although none has a stack too remarkable.

The killed in action its Jesus Cortés “desx2″Unfortunately for their bancadores in the Park, Javier Piazuelo “Pizu”, Santiago Terrazas and Extremadura Julio Galán.

It was precisely “Pizu” that gave the final push to stack the player who ends up as face chip leader on day 2, the German Mario Puccini. In the last hand of the day, the Champion of Spain AQ tried to bend over and behind him, Puccini found some kings did not hesitate to put into play, eliminating the Spanish.

And pro rumano Toni Judet passed as the second in chips, accompanied by other names such as Johnny Lodden, Nicolas Chouity, Jeff Sarwer the Jude Ainsworth.

Entity that did not make it we can emphasize Arnaud Mattern, Theo Jorgensen, Marvin Rettenmaier, Vanessa Rousso the Randy Lew “nanonoko”.

Original Huesca, based in Tarragona, young, brave, feisty, steadfast, transgressive, these are some of the adjectives with which this player it can be defined. But above everything in your life is a constant, apart from their great game, this is “breaking new ground.”

There is a long time, and unfortunately some are bent on keeping the poker player stereotype of beautiful and sexy before poker player really. And even as a publicity for some newbies or people outside this world, could strain for a while, but eventually those claims are no longer valid, and eventually emerge the results of good players and bad.

Not that we will go to the opposite pole, which is not so, but as always in this life is a universe of gray in the monochrome (or polychrome depending how you look) there are many players who compete, fight and win as the best poker players in the world and that many times for not being girls have no impact 90-60-90 due.

We’re going to go ahead is Paula Annette Obrestad, and I apologize for the Norwegians, but the product has always been better Iberian like cooking, is not the same our acorn ham chop of Saxony or our anchovies Santoña meet the kippers.

We, in short, if not go into another debate …. And is not the site or place and far from my intention. So, if you like our readers, give way to this interesting interview with this girl, that could happen to our side and so … we do not realize it could also plucked on a table and there they would realize that we and our portfolio more!

Hello Paula, how are you? You look tired I see … Is it by staying up all night playing Adventure or the “Beijing Express” you’ve lived a little?
As a bit of everything … the experience in Beijing Express was tough and lately I’ve traveled a lot because of some poker tournaments …

Who comes up with pitcher soul! Do not you had enough with the fierce struggle of the tables?
Well, this was a fight a little different … also went there with the most important person in my life is my mother, that was his dream and we were lucky enough to live together.

It seems that the sacrifice is very attached to your person, right? Have you ever been so in the world of poker?
I think everyone makes sacrifices in your life at certain times and / or circumstances. That’s why the coins have 2 sides … On the subject of poker I guess like everyone, sometimes leave a little parked touches other aspects to focus on the game, but I’m keeping my friends, going out for drinks, shopping, partying … the life you lead any person of my age. Although it is true that when a tournament is postponed it all … the good thing is that I can say that in the poker world and I have friends not just acquaintances.

With the athlete who you are and your qualifications, why not poker and other activity?
Plain and simple curiosity … I saw him on TV once and it caught my attention. I started searching and Internet documents, videos … I caught the bug.

From time to start playing today, how have you seen evolve your game and even where you think you could get?
Since starting the truth is that if there has been evolution. However, rapid evolution is the beginning and slow later. When you start from 0 and acquiring concepts and take contact with the game, you see that you are evolving quickly, but there comes a point where it costs a lot more evolved. In poker there is always something new to learn, ways to improve, optimize sequences, variants that apply to maximize … stagnate and no good thinking “and it thus.”

Any story worthy of note at your beginnings? And have now?
In the first tournaments I played, to sit at the table a man she snapped: And you who come from? Who pays you to the tournament? At that time I offended a lot, but well, everything in the world … Well recently I made my first royal flush in vivo, which is not very anecdotal, but I always look forward! :

Thank anyone who supported at this time as a poker player?
Especially the family, who are always are when you need it most. And people like Dani Gómez “Garnerus” Raul Horta “Rayu” Javier Piazuelo “Pizu” always been there not just poker players, but as friends.
Well, Reuben, who’s who “avocados” day to day, both upstream and downs graphic …. And of course Poker Mambo for trusting me and giving me the opportunity: Brais thanks!

Going into flour, what do you think the stereotype that the public has great poker players (addicts, gamblers, ruined, etc. ..)?
I think it’s fine, but the mind must start being more realistic, we are no longer in the west … Those who carry the flag ignorance are those who do not realize that we are not sick, not sick that the gambler for a given game, but by his own personality and / or trend that can be ruined even the owner of a factory Bibles (with all due respect) and that there are vicious everywhere.

What about the role of women in this world?
I have never expected them to treat me differently for being a woman, when I sit at a table, I am with players, regardless of race, sex, age … So good, the role of women.

How did a girl as young as you the first time you went to a big tournament, surrounded by men at the table? Or at the least attempt to steal your blind made a reraise all-in? In order to be reassuring
The truth is that the first time is overwhelming. Not because they are men, but because your “debut” in a tournament buy-in higher than you normally play, the level of players was higher … But hey, I do not scare easily, so it is relatively easy not give me a hand to blow bet …

What advice would you give to all those girls today start playing poker and perhaps check back are all guys in this game?
This is good! Nothing, except that the kids do not bite. And do not give them more initial stack be kids, so nothing to fear. More and more women around the tables and no time has happened.

What future goals in the short term you get? And in the long run?
In the short term to keep learning, trying to increase profit bbs at the level that might be able to play and level up. In the long run … but the truth is not what I’m going to eat tomorrow … so we’ll be watching. I think it’s important to go to meet goals that created an expectation tiny too big and then be unable to comply.

Your partner also plays poker, are you or are you usually peel usually pious?
When the tables do not agree we’re a couple, their chips are worth the same as those of others. It would be fair to other players respetásemos us, plus it is prohibited. We have a long history of mutually busts, most recently in pre-final table Castellopn Deep Stack … got mad a little, but then it passed.

Any variance request to the goddess? That here we plug
What’s mine for me and what not, Split pot!

Cash, MTTs and Sit & Go? Why your choice?
Online cash game practically, that’s where the benefits (now every day it gets more complicated). MTTS live and that the truth is that I love. It’s different playing behind a screen with hundreds of stats that seeing the face of who you have at hand.

Tigh, Ultratigh Looser …?
Tight ¿? What is that? Rather loose aggressive

A pleasure to have chatted with you and everything will go well, because I do not doubt that you deserve it. And if you stay single (God forbid) warns.

Of course, the appointment of rigor, but in this case without a precedent we will dedicate it to our male readers: “The battles are the only women who make a run.” Napoleon.

Phil Hellmuth was busted yesterday by a spider, Rettenmaier after suck-out the month on second place

Only 30 players fighting for Day 2 of the WPT Malta still for the title. Phil Hellmuth is no longer there. He had a crazy even for him day. The most important events for him were a spider bite, a doctor at the table, a versiebter quadruple bluff and an ear infection.

It had all started so well: In the very first hand of the day Hellmuth doubled with aces against boys at 70k. Then he built his stack up to 175k to continue until he lost everything in two hands.

First he fired a four Q-5-barrel-bluff on a board of A-7-3-8-K, Salvador Blanco 9-7 and Fourth Pair heruntercallte. In the very next hand, dropped out of the former WSOP champion, and that hand was almost a little bit crazy.

Hellmuth raised to 20k stack in 7200, Andrew Fekete increased to 12k from the button, the blinds folded and turned Fekete KJ. “Hey, I still have chips,” said the astonished Hellmuth. “Sorry, I understand if you want to fold,” said Fekete. “Well, I do not,” said Hellmuth and advertised call with only 8,000 chips behind.

On the flop is A♠ T♥ 6♠ Hellmuth checked, Fekete Hellmuth goes all-in and snap-called with A♦ 9♣. Hellmuth is way ahead. Gives him nine on the turn♠ the second pair, but the river is the T …♠. Backdoor flush on the end for Fekete and Hellmuth.

Hellmuth had earlier let a doctor come to the table, after he had a spider bite and had contracted an ear infection. Overall, the Poker Brat seemed in pretty bad shape, but he promised to stand by for the live-stream comment on Saturday.

Marvin Rettenmaier succeeded shortly before the end of the match, what is online in the chat boxes with comments like “bad play rewarded.” After a raise of Anders Berggren on the button, he went from the big blind with J♣ T♥ all-in. Berggren paid more than happy with A♦ A♣.

The flop fell K♦ Q♣ 9♥, And Rettenmaier were Christmas, Easter and on the titanium-poker-birthday one day. Turn and river changed nothing, and Rettenmaier had suddenly instead of 0 390 000 chips. This meant 2nd place in the table.

Placed at the top, however, the Italian Cecilia PescagliniWho caught the last course of their lives. Would be the main event a bounty event, they would still have been rehabilitated. First, they took Alexander Konstantinov from the table after they hit a flush on the turn. Then George Georgiu had lost after a coin flip. Thomas Brown was already drawing dead on the flop, because Pescaglini flopped a flush. Julian Herald’s aces had no chance against their powerful T-9, as the flop fell KTT.

The highlight Pescaglini succeeded at the table on which sat among others, Tony G., against none other than Marvin Rettenmaier. Q on a board♣ T♣ 6♣ T♠ she went to rescue Beth Maier’s all-in and forced the Germans to the nut flush with A♣ 8♣ fold. The Italian held J♣ 3♣ and the day ended with 976K chips.

The day also ended unhappily for Reinke Tobias Meier, who scored high in his last hand flush on the turn, one lady, who was then beaten on the river by a straight flush.
