Unibet Open http://no.unibetopen.com Just another WordPress weblog Fri, 29 May 2009 17:31:29 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 en Simon Johansson wins Unibet Open Warsaw!!! http://no.unibetopen.com/2008/12/08/simon-johansson-wins-unibet-open-warsaw/ http://no.unibetopen.com/2008/12/08/simon-johansson-wins-unibet-open-warsaw/#comments Sun, 07 Dec 2008 23:18:57 +0000 Unibet_Fred http://www.unibetopen.com/?p=429 simon

Full house brings the title home! Simon pushed all-in Pre-flop with K8 and Christoffer calls with AT, flop comes K25, giving him the pair, the railbirds start clapping and cheering. Turn brings an 8 and even more cheering, and to finish the whole thing off, another King comes down on the river. Simon takes home roughly €119,000.

Simon is very happy with his performance, even though he had a fever during the first hours of Day 1, he played a very solid game throughout the tournament, always staying above average stack size. This is his biggest tournament win this far, but we will most likely see more of him in the future.

Congratulations and best of luck from all of us at Unibet!

The Ukrainian went all in with K5 off as the SB, Simon calls with A9, the board shows nothing. Christoffer has in the meantime doubled up twice against Simon, evening out the odds quite a bit.

He raised up to 40k on the button, but BB and fellow Swede Christoffer Carlsson pushed all in for around 230,000. This made the chipleader think, and thought he did, for 10 minutes, and still didn’t come to any decision. Eventually he had to fold, the game has to carry on.
