The Hendon Mob Championship Day 1a
Level 6: 800/1,600 (1,600)
Entries: 137/170
We caught up with The Festival Series Founder Martin "Franke" von Zweigbergk and poker dealer Russell Bowman on the break.
We learned from Franke, that his The Hendon Mob Championship first bullet didn't last long. That being said it was a little bit of a roller coaster ride. Franke shared that he doubled through JJ Hazan when his king-five suited got there against jacks with all of Franke's chips committed preflop. He then lost most of his chips with an open-ended straight draw to an opponent's top pair before dusting the rest of his stack off.
Meanwhile, Bowman also struck out on his first bullet. He plans to have some lunch before hopping back into the action. Franke plans to do the same after making some announcements during the first break of the Main Event, which is down to just 56 hopefuls.
