2023 EAPT Bucharest
Nicolae Madalin was under the gun when he raised to 500, and was called by Dan Ghiocel in the cutoff and by Alexandru Tudor in the big blind.
Madalin continued with a bet of 700 on the flop 10♠K♦4♠. Ghiocel called once again, but Tudor check-raised to 3,100. It took a long moment for Madalin to call, while Ghiocel folded easily.
The 9♣ came on the turn, and Tudor checked. Madalin then decided to bet 11,200, and put Tudor into the tank. And more than five minutes after the beginning of the hand, Tudor eventually folded.
Daniel Curea opened to 500 from under the gun, and he was called by Ciprian Constantinescu in the cutoff and Dobrin Meltiade in the big blind.
On a flop of 8♠9♠4♠, Curea continued with a bet of 700. Constantinescu folded, but Meltiade check-raised to 2,200. He made Curea fold.
With a short delay, cards are in the air on Day 1c of the €560 EAPT Bucharest Main Event.
