Niel Down - Claus Brought Almost to His Neess
Level 7
: 300/600, 50 ante
We didn't quite catch all the action, but there was a preflop raising war between Claus Nielsen (hijack) and Danny Neess (small blind) which culminated in 9,675 from Neess and a call from Nielsen.
They saw an flop which Neess checked. Nielsen bet 12,300, and Neess asked him how much he was playing (A = 36,000 behind) before flat-calling.
They checked down the turn and river, and Nielsen turned over pocket . Neess however revealed for top two pair, and is now at well over 100,000 - our current chip leader.
