jnoy

Niveau 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Eduard Norel opened to 4,500 from early position and was called by David Karsenty in the small blind. Karsenty checked the K♦K♥5♥ flop before Norel continued for 4,000.

Karsenty answered with a check-raise to 9,500 and was called to the 2♣ turn. Karsenty then led out by announcing a bet of 16,000 and Norel took some time before making the call.

After the 2♥ river, Karsenty committed the rest of his stack of around 50,000 and Norel went into the tank. After a few minutes, the call was made.

"Nice hand" said Karsenty, turning over A♠9♠ for two pair on board with an ace kicker. Norel revealed J♥10♥ for a flush to take down a big pot and send Karsenty to the rail.

Niveau 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Arriving on the turn of a J♣A♠6♥2♥ board, Johannes van Bemmel checked from middle position to Daniyar Aubakirov in the hijack. Aubakirov then shoved all in, covering Van Bemmel's stack of 52,000 by a wide margin. With around 45,000 in the pot prior to the all-in bet, Van Bemmel went deep into the tank.

Eventually, Aubakirov called for time, but Van Bemmel folded his cards before the dealer could call the floor.

Niveau 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Mario Trattou made a raise to 4,000 from middle position before Mateusz Wozniak jammed all in for 49,500 from the hijack. Parker Talbot occupied the seat in the cutoff and smooth-called. The action folded back to Trattou, who asked for a count but quickyl folded once the dealer told him, leaving the two other players to show down.

Mateusz Wozniak: A♣K♦
Parker Talbot: Q♠Q♣

The players shared a fistbump before the 2♦J♣8♥2♠7♥ board was dealt out. Unable to beat Talbot's queens, Wozniak went on his way, sending the big pot to the way of the PokerStars Ambassador.

Vuilleumier Back Above Starting Stack

frankvisser

Niveau 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Alexandre Vuilleumier was down to just 16,000 chips when he jammed them all in from middle position. The action folded to Fedor Burmistrov in the big blind, who played the exact same amount. He was in agony, mulling over the decision before Conor Beresford called for the clock.

The countdown started, but before it ran out Burmistrov put in the rest of his stack.

Fedor Burmistrov: K♠9♦
Alexandre Vuilleumier: A♦8♠

Vuilleumier had Burmistrov drawing dead on the turn when 5♠6♠6♣A♥9♣ was put on the felt, and the only player from Indonesia was eliminated before the money was reached.

Both players checked to the 9♦ river, where Mulder led out for 14,000. That was enough to produce a fold from Pokhabov and take down the pot.

Niederreiter Five-Bets, Bohdanov Shoves in Massive Pot

dsalituro

Niveau 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Fabian Niederreiter three-bet to 22,000 in the big blind before Renat Bohdanov put in a four-bet to 45,000 in early position. Niederreiter then tanked for a minute before another player at the table called the clock.

Niederreiter didn't wait for the floor to arrive before five-betting to 95,000. Bohdanov confirmed the amount before he called as they saw the 10♣J♥Q♣ flop.

Niederreiter then led out for 35,000 and Bohdanov moved all in for 150,000, again sending Niederreiter deep into the tank.

"Aces? King-queen," Bohdanov asked Niederreiter.

"Jacks," Niederreiter asked him.

"No," Bohdanov replied.

The clock was again called on Niederreiter, but other players at the table felt he hadn't been given enough time so the floor gave him an additional minute before beginning the countdown.

"Show if I fold," Niederreiter asked as Bohdanov shook his head. Niederreiter eventually slid his cards into the muck and Bohdanov took the pot.

"Special hand," Bohdanov said as he scooped in the massive pile of chips.

"Wasn't sure about that one," Niederreiter added.

"You should've asked for €100, €200 to show. It's good value," a tablemate joked with Bohdanov, who moved up to around 400,000.
