It was the third and last Morning Poker of week 2. The guys were clubbing at night, maybe that’s why it was a very tight game. Jurij was the first one, winning a mentionable pot playing his hand. Then, blinds were at 20/40, Jorn’s time had come, winning with a fullhouse against Gregor and next hand beating Denis straight with a flush on the river.

Blinds at 30/60 and the French fought back. The flop came down with 5/4/3, Jorn raised 200 and Denis called. On the turn 2 Denis bet 200 and Jorn called. Let’s see the river: 7 and Denis bet 400, Jorn reraised 2000 and Denis went all in – Jorn called! So Denis with 8/6 hitting the 8 high straight while Jorn only had a 6 and got smashed.

Blinds were 40/80 and we had a first decision. The board showed 2h/3s/7d/5s and Gregor went all in. Jurij called! So showdown guys! Gregor with baby ace (A/4) in his hand but Jurij with 8/4 of spades. On the river Qs Jurij hit the flush and kicked Gregor out of the game!

Four players left: Blinds 100/200 and quite a while nothing really happend. Till Harald went all in pre flop with A/J and Jurij called with K/Q. In the end, the board showed 7/5/Q/3/7 and the Austrian had to say Goodbye.

Next blindlevel 100/200, next decision: Denis raising pre flop 3000 and Jorn took the bate and called. Denis with As/2s vs J/J by Jorn. Even if Jorn hit the triple on the river! He got smashed by Denis’s flush (Ah/9s/8s/Kc/Js) on the river! So the Swiss guy had to leave the table – for today.

Heads up between Denis (8100) and Jurij (6900). From blind level 300/600 till 1000/2000 the game just went back and forth – raise and fold for a very long time. Then Denis went all in again with 5820 and finally Jurij took heart and called. The French guy kicked his Q/7 with A/8 (J/J/5/10/A) and next hand he finally sealed Jurij’s fate. Jurij went all in with 7/2 vs Denis’ A/7. In the end the board came down with A/6/Q/3/7. And that was the end for Jurij! But a great start for Denis tomorrow! Congratulations Denis!

Second round of our PokerIsland Pool Games and the PokerIsland Girls and players really got into it. Fought gladiator style, jumped, battled themselves in Girls Holdem and as our users demanded in the online poll - we played dive in poker. But watch yourself.

It was the second Morning Poker of week 2. And today, everybody was awake and eager to win. But nevertheless it was the tightest game we had so far. Blinds started at 10/20. Jurij caught a nice bluff by Harald and won the first big pot of the day. And Jurij kept on playing. On the river Qd, the board showed 10d/Qc/5d/10s, Gregor bet 300, Jurij reraised 1100 and Gregor called with Jd/4d hitting a flush! But Jurij with A/Q smashed him with a nice fullhouse!

So far, yesterday’s winner Jorn slept away the game. Blinds by now were 100/200, still five players in the game. Denis with 1200, Gregor 1540, Harald 4460, Jorn with 2100 and Jurij chip leader with 6700. And finally we had some action! First Denis doubled up against Harald. Next hand, again Denis played for the gain. The flop came down with J/2/6 and Gregor went all in with 9/A against the calling French with J/K. On the turn J Denis hit the triple. And the river 8 didn’t save Gregors soul. Goodbye Gregor! First player down.

Blinds were at 200/400. And finally Jorn started playing doubling up against Denis. Then Harald doubled up against Jorn with A/5 against A/8 by Jorn hitting a pair of 5s on the flop. On the next level 300/600 we had the next decision. Denis went all in with 1860 and Jorn called with 10h/8h vs Denis’ K/J. On the flop 8/3/Q Jorn hit the pair. Turn 3 and river A didn’t change a thing. So Denis had to leave the table.

Three players left in the game. Harald with 3020, Jurij 5640 and Jorn now chipleader with 6340. But not for long. The board showed 4/10/9/7/8 and „Double Up“ Harald doubled up again smashing Jurij’s 10/Q with 6/2 in his hand and a straight on the river. Next hand, blinds now at 400/800, Jurij’s fate was sealed. He lost with pocket 6 against Harald’s German virgin (9/9).

Heads Up Harald 8100 and Jorn with 6900 chips left to play. Blinds still were at 400/800 and Jorn again made the race. First doubling up against Harald and next hand going all in again with A/A against Haralds pocket 6. On the board, the lucky Swiss even hit another ace. Really, no chance for Harald today. And Jorn left the table with another chip upgrade for Friday. Congratulations!

It was their first day at PokerIsland. And the first time at the beach. Watch them enjoying the party beach lifestyle on the island.

Blinds 10/20. And nothing happened. It was a really tight game. The highest of highs was one turn - till last hand in this level. The board showed J/2/6/A. Denis raised 300, Jorn reraised 1300 and Denis called. On the river: 3, Jorn bet all in and Denis called. So showdown guys: Denis with J/A vs Jorn’s route 66 (6/6). What a early out for the French guy! And what a nice double up for the Swiss guy.

Jorn kept on playing strong, winning a nice hand with a flush against Jurij. But till blind level 50/100, the game crept on. But finally, we had the next decision. On the board 9/J/7/7 Juri went all in. And guess who took heart and called? Jorn with A/J against Jurij’s A/Q. So down the river we go: 10. And Jorn kicked the next player off the table.
Same level Jorn the Hellraiser went on. Gregor called on the small blind but Jorn raised 600. Gregor reraised 3230 going all in – and of course the Hellraiser called with Q/A in his hand against Gregor’s J/8. In the end on the board we had 7/9/K/K/2. And the next Player was smashed by Jorn.

Heads Up between Harald (2040) and Jorn (12960) and blinds were at 200/400. The game went back and forth for a while till finally Jorn called on of Harald’s all ins. Jorn with A/9 vs Harald’s Q/6. So dealer, show us the flop: 8/J/9. Now the turn: 3. And the river: K. Congratulations Jorn. What a massive start by Switzerland!
