Hands #34-#37 : Play Slows Down
Hand 34#: Turkish player Zorlu Er made it 350,000 from under the gun, and Dogra Dogra called from the next seat. Uri Reichenstein on the button, however, raised to 1,075,000. That did not deter Andreas Chalkiadakis....at least for three minutes until the clock is called. He even reached for the 4-bet....before folding! Zorlu Er asked for a count, then folded. Everyone folded and Reichenstein wins what surely is one of the longest three-bet-fold-round pots in history.
Hand #35: Chalkiadakis limped in the small blind, Er checked to a flop of whereupon Chalkiadakis' bet of 180,000 was called. The turn of was checked to, but the river saw a bet of 360,000 from Chalkiadakis. Er called and his took it down against Chalkiadakis' .
Hand #36: Uri Reichenstein made it 350,000 from the hijack position, and Thomas De Rooij three-bet to 1,125,000. Folded to Reichestein, he also folded, and De Rooij took one.
Hand #37: De Rooij made 350,000 from the hijack in the next hand. Chalkiadakis called in the cut off, so too did Er on the button and both the blinds fold.
The flop of saw De Rooij bet out 600,000 and Er eventually folded.
