Weiss

Niveau 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Ercan Atmaca limped on the button. The small blind also limped, while Ricardo De Andrade checked to go three ways to the flop.

It came 3♥2♦8♥, and all three players checked.

A 9♣ on the turn sparked the action, with the small blind first leading out for 20,000 and then De Andrade raising to 100,000. Atmaca called the raise, while the small blind folded.

The K♦ river was checked through by both players. Atmaca flipped over 9♥J♠, while De Andrade tabled 5♦4♦. Atmaca took it down with a pair of nines to add to his monster chip stack.
