Linus ‘LLinusLLove’ Loeliger recently faced off against fellow high-stakes regular ‘KraciFisk’ in a $100/$200 no-limit hold’em duel on CoinPoker — and the action did not disappoint. KraciFisk emerged victorious, walking away with roughly $80,000 after a series of audacious bluffs and river hero-calls.
KraciFisk’s River Hero-Call
One of the most dramatic hands unfolded 125 big blinds deep. Loeliger opened to $500, with KraciFisk three-betting to $2,100. On an A♠K♠10♣ flop, KraciFisk continued with a $2,740 bet, and Loeliger called. The 5♣ turn saw KraciFisk pot $9,680, again met by Loeliger’s call.
On the 2♦ river, KraciFisk checked, prompting Loeliger to shove his remaining $10,739. KraciFisk confidently called with just 3♠2♠, taking down the pot as Loeliger’s J♣4♣ missed its backdoor draw.
Analysts noted that KraciFisk’s aggressive preflop strategy and river hero-call were in line with solver theory, making it a high-risk, high-reward play that paid off spectacularly.
Loeliger’s Bold Turn Shove
Later in the session, the two faced off again with stacks slightly over 100 big blinds. KraciFisk raised to $460, Loeliger reraised to $2,000, and KraciFisk four-bet to $5,200. Loeliger called, taking the flop of Q♠Q♣2♣ and checking before calling a $2,080 bet.
On the 10♠ turn, Loeliger made an unconventional move, shoving for nearly the pot ($13,342). KraciFisk snap-called with Q♦J♥ for trips, while Loeliger’s 9♠8♠ combo draw came up short. Running it twice didn’t save Loeliger, as both boards favored KraciFisk.
Experts noted that Loeliger’s turn shove was a non-standard play, often punished in high-stakes solver analysis. KraciFisk’s small turn bet and strong range advantage made the call almost unavoidable.
Takeaways
The session showcased the intensity of high-stakes no-limit hold’em, with daring bluffs, creative plays, and high-pressure hero-calls dominating the action. KraciFisk’s victory underlines the importance of position, hand reading, and composure in such volatile cash games.
