The Rise and Fall of Nikolaus Jedlicka

THE FIFTY-- While cruising past Nikolaus Jedlicka's table, we witnessed him raising an opponent's 1,000 chip bet on the river to 3,500 on a board of {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Spades}{K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}, and after much consideration, the young Betfair qualifier called, only to see Jedlicka's {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}, that had rivered a set. That hand sent Jedlicka's stack up past the 40,000 mark.

Only a few moments later, we heard the dealer call out "all in action!" and rushed over to find that Jedlicka's stack had again found its way to the middle, calling an opponent's 6,000 or so chip all-in in a pot that had swelled to nearly 20,000. The board read {Q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{6-Clubs}.

"I think I have two outs here," said Jedlicka as he turned over {5-Spades}{5-Clubs}. He was right-- his opponent tabled {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}.

The river was the {J-Clubs}, and half of Jedlicka's stack was shipped across the table. He's currently sitting on 17,000.
