The 2024 PokerStars European Poker Tour is in full swing at the Merit Royal Diamond Hotel and Spa, with the $5,300 Main Event currently midway through Day 2.
After late registration closed earlier, the series showstopper recorded 1,284 entries and generated a $6,227,400 prize pool, of which more than $1 million awaits the eventual champion. One player looking to do all it takes to become the next EPT Champion is Peter Tschernigg. The Austrian poker player has just over $30,000 in live earnings and found himself in a horrible spot preflop, with the tournament just a few dozen eliminations away from the money.
Can Tschernigg Fold Kings Preflop?
During Level 13 (blinds 1,000/2,500/2,500bba), Mihai Niste opened the action to 5,000 before Boris Tabiyev three-bet from the hijack. The action folded to Peter Tschernigg in the big blind, who four-bet to 31,500. Niste got out of the way ahead of Tabiyev, jamming all in for 132,000.
Tschernigg went deep into the tank, mulling his options for several minutes.
"You have aces?" asked Tschernigg. "I have kings."
Tschernigg extended his thinking time, ultimately calling the clock on himself. As the countdown began, he peeked at his cards one final time and opened-folded K♠K♥to gasps at the table.
"Do you really want to see it?" asked Tabiyev. Tschernigg and the rest of the table agreed.
It turned out that Tschernigg's radar was spot on, as Tabiyev revealed A♦A♣.

"Wow! What am I playing? Get me out of here," exclaimed Casimir Seire. "Me too," added Nicolas Chouity.
"I don't know if we're playing the same game," continued Seire as Tschernigg lapped the compliments for his fold.
At the time of writing, both players were still in contention to make the money, where 209 players remain.

- Each player takes a turn drawing a card from either pile and discarding one. When a player forms sets, runs with all of their cards, and declares Rummy, or when there are no more draws and no moves left, the game is over. Playing Classic Rummy successfully involves knowing the rules, keeping track of cards that are picked up, watching what your opponents discard, & forming sets and runs fast. Effective gameplay in the game is achieved by combining skill, strategy, and luck. 25-04-29
- It's crucial to take into account both the cards that could be valuable to opponents and the ones that are no longer helpful for forming sets & runs when discarding cards. Those who strategically discard their cards can both increase their own chances of forming winning combinations and reduce the likelihood that their opponents will improve their hand. Also, knowing when to draw from the draw pile or the discard pile is essential to perfecting the art of card drawing. While drawing from the discard pile can provide players access to necessary specific cards, drawing from the draw pile can provide players unknown cards that might be useful for finishing sets & runs. 25-04-29
