Eljano Hysaj opened to 1,600 from under the gun and action folded to Konstantinos Attitis in middle position, who announced "raise" before putting out 1,600.
There was no big blind posted and Attitis explained that he had thought Hysaj had been the big blind and didn't mean to three-bet. The floor ruled that Attitis had to raise to 3,600 since he had verbally announced a raise.
After the floor clarified the situation, Gerard Berthaut flat-called from the hijack before Hysaj four-bet jammed his stack of 25,500. Attitis quickly folded and Berthaut mulled over a decision before calling with a bigger stack.
Eljano Hysaj:
Gerard Berthaut:
"What does he have?" Hysaj asked as he squinted across the table to see he was ahead before the board ran out to earn him a double.
"Thank you," Hysaj told his opponent coldly as he raked in the pot.
The action was caught on the turn with 3,300 in the pot. Reigning champion and PokerStars ambassador Alejandro Lococo bet 1,200 from the small blind. With the board reading , Sander Ostlyngen called from early position.
Lococo fired for 2,200 on the river which folded out his opponent.
Victor Panades raised from late position and Gonzalo Ranero three-bet jammed from the big blind with a bigger stack. Panades gave it some thought and called.
Victor Panades:
Gonzalo Ranero:
Panades was far ahead with a bigger pair and tablemate Peter Hedlund gave him a fist bump before the flop landed to give his opponent a big lead with a set. Ranero improved to a full house as the board finished out and Panades hit the rail as his Swedish friend tried to console him.
PokerStars Red Spade Pass winner Viktor Wessman is one of the big stacks in the Eureka Main Event. The Swedish poker player won the coveted prize in the Mystery Bounty event at EPT Barcelona.
Wessman was then flown out to Sao Paolo for a once-in-a-lifetime F1 Grand Prix experience and also found some time to play poker with some of the game's biggest names as well as some F1 superstars.
Wessman walked away from the felt as the victor and collected the one-of-a-kind Spadie trophy and a handful of other amazing prizes.
