WINS FOR ‘DURRR’ AND EASTGATE AND BAGELS FOR HELLMUTH AND BLACK

Dezember 10, 2008

London – 28th November 2008 – Day four at the http://www.partypoker.com Premier League III saw wins for Tom ‘Durrr’ Dwan and Peter Eastgate. Dwan’s win is a timely boost for his final table chances, while 2008 WSOP Main Event champion Eastgate has put himself in a prime position for a place at Sunday’s deep-stack final table. The success of Eastgate and JC Tran is good news for all the other players as it leaves the rest of the league wide open and the chances of making the final table live.

Heat seven was eventful and, unsurprisingly, Tom Dwan was at the centre of it all with a mixture of creative play that bamboozled his opponents and good fortune at key times. Again the heat was fantastic for JC Tran, who finished 2nd for 6 points as his domination of the Premier League continued. When it got heads-up Dwan led 490,000 – 110,000 and it was all over very quickly. ‘Durrrr’ pushed all-in with Ac 7c and was called by Tran with Q7 off-suit. An ace of the flop was enough to take it down. After the maximum on day three Phil Hellmuth ended up with the bagel busting out for 0 points. Tony G finished 5th for 2 points, Nenad Medic 4th for 3 points, with Roland de Wolfe in 3rd for 4 points.

 

Heat eight saw another win for Peter Eastgate, who continues to impress on his Premier League debut. This heat also saw Juha Helppi pick up 6 valuable points as runner-up. The heat was very fast and ended-up heads-up after just 71 hands. Helppi held a strong advantage over Eastgate leading 463,000 – 137,000 but the WSOP champion showed his mettle to claw his way back and snatch victory from the season one Premier League winner. The decisive hand saw Helppi raise with KJ off-suit and pushed all-in by Eastgate with AK. Nothing came on the flop and the Dane consolidated his second position in the league table behind JC Tran. First out for the bagel and zero points was Andy Black and finishing 5th was Annette Obrestad for 2 points. Devilfish finished 4th for 3 points as he continues to be dreadfully unlucky and in desperate need of a break. Vicky Coren finished 3rd for 4 points and continues to impressively accumulate points.
