Quads Again! Jan 18, '09 For the third time today a player has picked up quads. This time it was Casey Kastle who held 5-3 on a 7-5-5-5-6 board. Castle won a 25,000 pot that he faced off against Jeff Madsen in to grow his stack to more than 30,000. These Australian dealers are on fire. Player Tags: Casey Kastle, Jeff Madsen Kastle Doubles Up Jan 18, '09 Casey Kastle just won a classic coin-flip situation to double up to 22,000. He held A-K against pocket sevens when the money got all in preflop and he flopped a king to survive the hand. Player Tags: Casey Kastle View All Live Updates From This Event

King of the Kastle Oct 30, '08 With 20 minutes left of round two Casey Kastle faced a preflop raise of 3,500. He was nonchalantly reading his magazine and it looked for all the world like he didn't realise it was his turn to bet. When it was pointed out that the action was on him he equally coolly pushed his entire stack of around 50,000 into the middle perplexing opponent Pierre Husson. After about a minute Husson called the clock on himself and looked like he was going to fold but at the last second shrugged his shoulders and called flipping over A-9. Kastle elegantly flipped over 9-9 and the flop came Q 9 6 4 5 to double up. Husson was knocked back to around 38,000 and was flabbergasted to say the least. Luca Pagno only has about three big blinds left and finally found a hand to move with. There were no takers though and he exhaled loudly showing kings. He lives a little longer but needs a lifeline. Annette Obrestad made a great call on the river to a half pot-sized bet of 7,200 from William Fry. Fry insta-mucked and Obrestad showed Q-J for top pair. Some chip counts: Paul Testud -- 50,000 Andreas Krause -- 40,400 Johnny Lodden 109,000 George McKeever -- 12,300 Danny Ryan -- 67,800 Andreas Mattern -- 108,000 Player Tags: Casey Kastle, Luca Pagano, Annette Obrestad, Pierre Husson View All Live Updates From This Event

Martin Klaser Wins Event No. 43 ($216,249) Jun 26, '08 *Martin Klaser Dominates Early* Martin Klaser used his chip lead out of the gates to apply constant pressure to his opponent Casey Kastle. As a result, Klaser won nearly 80 percent of the hands without having to go to a showdown. Kastle was pushed down to just under 10 big blinds. *Martin Klaser Wins Event No. 43 ($216,249)* On a flop of J99 Casey Kastle put in his last 120,000 and Martin Klaser made the call. Klaser turned over an overpair of queens and all Kastle could muster was a pair of jacks. The Queen on the turn sealed the deal, and Klaser won his first WSOP bracelet. Casey Kastle finished in second place, earning $137,985.

Fetter held AQ109 and Klaser turned over AQ27. The board came 77610Q and Klaser made trips to send Fetter home in third place. *NOTE: The players then took a 20-minute break before heads up play began.* Heads Up Play Begins Martin Klaser - 1,500,000 Casey Kastle - 700,000 Player Tags: Casey Kastle, Michael Fetter, Martin Klaser $1,500 PLO 8/ob - Erik Seidel Eliminated, Extends (POY) Lead Jun 26, '08 Blinds: 12,000-24,000 Players Left: 3 of 720 Chip Leaders: Seat 5: Michael Fetter - 280,000 Seat 6: Casey Kastle - 1,050,000 Seat 8: Martin Klaser - 780,000 Eliminations: Erik Seidel (4th Place) Big Hands: *Michael Fetter Doubles Through Erik Seidel* Michael Fetter got it all in with pocket aces on a flop of 8-4-2 against Erik Seidel's pair of fours and not much else. The Ace on the turn locked up the hand for Fetter, as Seidel didn't have a low draw. Fetter picked up a much needed double up. *Erik Seidel Eliminated in Fourth Place ($68,304)* Erik Seidel and Casey Kastle got it all in preflop. Seidel showed A1043 and Kastle turned over AKK5. The board ran out Q74KQ and Kastle made kings full to eliminate Seidel in fourth place. *Erik Seidel Extends His Card Player (POY) Lead* If my subject math skills are correct, Erik Seidel picked up a whopping 480 points for his fourth place finish in today's event. He already held a 4,100 to 3,400 point lead over second place resident Michael Binger, bringing his new point total to 4,580. So what does this mean? It means it's going to take more than one big victory to overcome Seidel for (POY) honors. Player Tags: Casey Kastle, Erik Seidel, Michael Fetter, Michael Binger $1,500 PLO 8/ob - Dinner Break Jun 26, '08 Blinds: 10,000-20,000 Players Left: 4 of 720 Chip Leaders: Seat 5: Michael Fetter - 280,000 Seat 6: Casey Kastle - 880,000 Seat 8: Martin Klaser - 690,000 Seat 9: Erik Seidel - 325,000 Eliminations: Jon Maren (5th Place) Big Hands: *Michael Fetter Doubles Through Jon Maren* Michael Fetter raised to 60,000 and Jon Maren made the call. The flop came 1055 and Maren bet 130,000. Fetter moved all in and Maren made the call showing A884. Fetter revealed KK42 and the turn and river came 3Q giving Fetter the double up with his kings up. The low failed to materialize and Maren took a hit to his stack. *Jon Maren Eliminated in Fifth Place ($56,019)* On a flop of KQ8, Jon Maren moved all in and was called by Casey Kastle. Kastle turned over 6--6-5-2 and it was surprisingly in the lead of Maren's A-J-3-2. The turn was the 2, giving Maren the nut low draw along with his two overs and gutshot, but the river was the Q, meaning that Kastle's lowly pair of sixes was enough to send Maren to the rail in fifth place. *NOTE: The players are now on a one-hour dinner break.* Player Tags: Casey Kastle, Michael Fetter, Jon Maren $1,500 PLO 8/ob - Two More Down Jun 26, '08 Blinds: 6,000-12,000 Players Left: 6 of 720 Chip Leaders: Seat 4: Chad Burum - 70,000 Seat 5: Michael Fetter - 230,000 Seat 6: Casey Kastle - 790,000 Seat 7: Jon Maren - 245,000 Seat 8: Martin Klaser - 500,000 Seat 9: Erik Seidel - 325,000 Eliminations: Larry Wright (8th Place), Joseph Haddad (7th Place), Big Hands: *Chad Burum Doubles Through Joseph Haddad* On a flop of K64, Chad Burum got it all in against Joseph Haddad. Burum held A347 for the second nut-low draw, a pair of fours and a back door nut-flush draw and Haddad showed A2910 for the nut-low draw and not much else. The not much else cost him when the turn brought the 2, counterfeiting his low, and the 5 on the gave Burum the wheel and a much needed double up. *Joseph Haddad Triples, Then Doubles* After getting all of his dangerously low stack in preflop against two opponents, Haddad revealed his fours full of tens on the river to triple up. A few hands later, his hole cards made the nut low and nut straight against Larry Wright to double up yet again to about 160,000. Larry Wright Eliminated in Eighth Place ($27,027) Larry Wright was all in for his last 17,000 against Casey Kastle. Kastle flopped the nut flush in spades, and Wright was unable to make a low by the river to survive. Wright was eliminated in eighth place. *Joseph Haddad Eliminated in Seventh Place ($34,389)* Martin Klaser raised and Joseph Haddad moved all in over the top. Klaser reluctantly called showing A1035 and he was in relatively bad shape against Haddad's AA24. But the flop gave Klaser the wheel, and Haddad was unable to catch up or improve. Haddad was eliminated in seventh place. *NOTE: The players then took a 20-minute break.* Player Tags: Casey Kastle, Larry Wright, Chad Burum, Joseph Haddad, Martin Klaser $1,500 PLO 8/ob - Chambers Out Jun 26, '08 Blinds: 5,000-10,000 Players Left: 8 of 720 Chip Leaders: Seat 1: Joseph Haddad – 35,000 Seat 3: Larry Wright - 120,000 Seat 4: Chad Burum - 180,000 Seat 5: Michael Fetter - 120,000 Seat 6: Casey Kastle - 675,000 Seat 7: Jon Maren - 290,000 Seat 8: Martin Klaser - 385,000 Seat 9: Erik Seidel - 360,000 Eliminations: Tom Chambers (9th Place), Big Hands: *Tom Chambers Eliminated in Ninth Place ($19,656)* Tom Chambers raised the pot preflop and Casey Kastle made the call from the big blind. The flop came AKQ and both players checked. The turn was the 3 and Kastle bet the pot. Chambers raised all in and Kastle thought it over before deciding to call with 7742, the nut low draw and a small flush draw. Chambers was sleeping on his AAK9 set of aces and needed a big non-diamond card to double up. Unfortunately, the river was the 6 giving Kastle his flush and the nut low. Chambers was eliminated in ninth place. *Larry Wright Doubles Through Michael Fetter* Larry Wright got the last of his stack all in preflop against Michael Fetter. Wright showed AQJ5 and Fetter turned over AKK10. The board ran out J8636 and Wright made his queen high flush and low to double up.

Just an hour ago Damon Singer was in the top 10 of chip leaders with 80,000 and Joseph Haddad was trying to build his stack from his starting 36,000. The first hand was the big one. On a flop of KJ8 Haddad and Singer got their chips all-in and showed their hands: Haddad: AAQ5 Singer: AK73 Singer had top pair and a flush draw, but Haddad had a better pair and a better flush draw. The turn was the 2c and when the river blanked with a 2s, Haddad doubled up to about 85,000. Then, a few hands later, Haddad finished the job. This time Singer got all of his chips – about 45,000 of them – in pre-flop with A832 against Haddad’s AA86. The flop – JJ4 – was a bad one for Singer, causing him to stand up and congratulate Haddad. The turn 4 lessened his pessimism, if only for a moment. And only a moment it was, as seconds later the dealer peeled off the 3, sealing Singer’s fate. Haddad now sits at second in chips with 134,000. It Doesn’t Get Much Better Than That Chip leader Martin Kläser forced an opponent all-in for 15,000 total and the opponent called. “Yes!” Klasner shouted when he saw his opponent’s holding: AQ72. Kläser’s exclamation was justified, as his opponent was drawing slim in a way rarely seen in Omaha. With Klasner holding AK72 he was a big favorite. The board cemented Kläser’s lead further and the German boosted his chip stack to 170,000. This is no small feat considering his table also includes Erik Seidel, Shannon Shorr, and Berry Johnston. Thus far today the young German has yet to make a single misstep.

Apr 13, '08	2008 EPT Grand Final - Season IV	EPT Grand Final Main Event	2	+
King of his Kastle Apr 13, '08 Two-time World Poker Tour finalist and American pro Casey Kastle is a little tired from his trip to Europe but remains relatively upbeat. "I've had to work hard to chip up," he said counting out his 30,000 in chips. "In the first four hours we didn't lose a player and no-one was up or down more than 5,000 in chips. That's how tight-conservative it was. "I had aces twice and didn't see a flop and i flopped a set three times and got no action." He's now looking forward to a full eight hours sleep. Player Tags: Casey Kastle "Timex" Ticks Along Apr 13, '08 Mike "Timex" McDonald form Canada coolly collected around 10,000 chips from a French opponent when he raised preflop, got called, bet 1,300 on a flop of 732, got called, bet 2,500 on a 4 turn, got called and bet 6,000 on a 2 river and got called. He turned over jacks and his French opponent looked surprised as if he'd been expecting something completely different. The Frenchman's friend lookat at him with a hyper-exaggerated shrugh of the shoulders as if to say "What in the name of all the heavens were you doing?"
