Blaschke KOs Thokaew
Manuel Blaschke opened from middle-position and Phatsapong Thokaew next to him called.
No player bet on a board of J♣ T♠ 7♥ .
This changed on the A♣ turn, as Blaschke put out a delayed continuation bet. Thokaew called and the river brought another A♦ .
Blaschke moved all-in, easily covering Thokaew who only had around 10,000 remaining. Thokaew had an easy call considering his holding.
Phatsapong Thokaew: A♠ Q♥
Manuel Blaschke: J♦ J♥
Brutal runout for Thokaew who either has the option now to enjoy the rest of the evening, or rebuy and give it another shot.

Blaschke Goes Aggressive

On the flop of 5♠ 6♦ 2♥ , there were around 13,000 chips in the middle when The Tien Nguyen from the small blind and Beibei Sun from the big blind checked the action to Hao Nguyen from under the gun, who then led out for 5,500. Manuel Blaschke put in a raise to 12,000 from the cutoff. Only Nguyen dropped in a call.
The 9♥ landed on the turn, where Nguyen checked the action to her opponent, and Blaschke fired out 9,500, which Nguyen made the call.
The river brought a 4♠ , and Nguyen checked over again. Blaschke fired out 16,000 this time, sending Nguyen into the tank. After a long time, Nguyen eventually mucked her hand.
