Up and Down

...And a few more chips for Cowley, as he rivered a ten to go with his {K-Spades} {10-Hearts} and found himself newly ahead of Naalden to take the pot.

Board: {5-Hearts} {6-Spades} {A-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {10-Clubs}

Naalden flashed him the {7-Clubs}.

Re-Cow-Very

Wow, this is exciting. Cowley's clawed back a few chips after calling Naalden's preflop raise and then checking the {5-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} flop, then betting out on the {4-Clubs} turn and {9-Spades} river. Naalden called, but mucked to Cowley's trip-tastic {Q-Clubs} {6-Hearts}. Cowley's grossly outnumbered railers applauded very loudly, as if trying to make up for their small numbers and relative sobriety.

Cash Cowley

Back up to a decisive chip lead for Marc Naalden after he raised from the button and called the reraise from Cowley.

Cowley bet out on the {9-Clubs} {K-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} flop and Naalden flatted, but when Cowley bet out again on the {4-Diamonds} turn, Naalden raised. A call from Cowley, but he opted to check the {6-Spades} river -- and then fold to a bet from Naalden.

Since then Naalden has gently whittled away at Cowley's stack, causing Cowley to drop another 100,000 or so. The current chip counts are somewhere in the region of 1.9 million for Naalden, 700,000 for Cowley.

Naalden Dominates, Chops

A bit of poor luck for Marc Naalden -- he and Cowley got to the river of a board, with Naalden's {A-Hearts} {8-Clubs} dominating Cowley's {10-Spades} {8-Hearts}. But the board in question ran out {K-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} {9-Clubs} -- they chopped the pot, and no change in the stacks.

Cowley in Serious Contention

Wow, the stacks are evening up and the Dutch rail has gone very quiet and tense.

Cowley raised from the button and Naalden reraised. Call.

Naalden bet out on the {8-Spades} {2-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} board and Cowley flatted. Naalden bet out again on the {2-Spades} turn and this time Cowley raised. Naalden reraised, and a flat call from Cowley led them to see an {8-Hearts} river. Naalden bet one more time and Cowley called. Cowley turned over pocket {Q-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}, and Naalden announced that he was playing the board and just mucked.

Cowley: 1.1 million
Naalden: 1.5 million

Cowley Not Cowering

Cowley - no coward
Cowley - no coward
Steven Cowley is putting up an impressive resistance and is up to 750,000 after his {8-Clubs} {4-Clubs} turned into a full house on the river of the {4-Spades} {K-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {8-Spades} board. Naalden just mucked.

Level: 24

Blinds: 15,000/30,000

Ante: 0

Now We've Got a Game

Cowley raised his button and Naalden reraised; call.

Naalden bet out on every street of the {A-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {Q-Spades} {Q-Clubs} board and Cowley just called until the river, when he raised. Naalden called, but he just mucked when Cowley turned over {Q-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}.

Cowley's up to 500,000, but no feeling sorry for Naalden -- he's still on over 2 million.

Ian Johns Eliminated in 3rd Place ($77,576)

Johns - sad face
Johns - sad face
Ian Johns doubled up to 150,000 after his {Q-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} finally stayed ahead of a dominated hand -- namely the {Q-Clubs} {5-Hearts} in the hands of Marc Naalden -- on a {Q-Spades} {2-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {7-Spades} {2-Diamonds} board.

But Naalden took all those chips back again a hand or two later when his continued betting on the {10-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {6-Hearts} board forced Johns to lay it down on the river.

So Johns was down to 30,000 when he moved in on the button. Both players called, and they checked down the {A-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {5-Clubs} board until Naalden bet out on the river; Cowley folded.

Naalden turned over {3-Clubs} {6-Clubs} again which had this time made a flush, and Johns just mucked as he exited in third place.
