Ludwig first Swede out

Saturday, March 6th, 2010

img_4728EuroSuperPoker.com is not a site only for Spanish players. Ocassionally we have Swedish presence among us and in Barcelona we have 13 Swedish players. One of these was Ludwig P. who busted out recently.

His first string of bad luck was when he had Q-10 and hit two pair on the flop against another player who had A-Q. The A-Q player couldn’t fold his top pair so on the River came an A and it all went down to a showdown and the other player took down the pot with his higher two-pair.

Running shortstacked he finally found himself all-in with A-A against Q-Q and it was game over when a Q hit the board. Ludwig can be found in the bar drinking Mojitos at the moment :-D
