Huge Pot For Wiegand, Koncke Crippled

Apr 19, 2015

It was Ciro Koncke who raised from the button to 200,000 and Wesley Wiegand called from the small blind. Hilton Nortje folded his big blind and the flop brought out 8clubQspade3diamond.

Both players checked on the flop and the turn was the 5spade. Wiegand checked again and Koncke bet 250,000.

Wiegand went into the tank for a bit before check raising to 500,000. Koncke took his time but eventually he called leaving himself with just 400,000 chips behind.

The river brought out the Qclub and Wiegand bet just 150,000. Koncke folded right away and he’s now the absolute short stack. Wiegand jumps up to 3,550,000 and is our tournament chip leader.
