Niveau 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

PokerNews caught the action when two players were in a heated preflop battle. On the button, Roberto Romanello opened with a raise, only to be met by a three-bet to 4,000 from Konstantin Voronin. Romanello wasn’t backing down and responded with a five-bet to 16,100. Voronin raised the stakes again, firing back with a six-bet to 45,000. Instead of folding or going all in, Romanello surprised everyone with a seven-bet to 81,100.

After burning through a couple of time bank cards, Voronin decided to fold, handing the pot to Romanello before any community cards were revealed. Romanello commented that Voronin had tried to bluff him, though Voronin stayed quiet.

Eric Afriat kicked off the action with a raise to 800 on the button, and Santiago Nadal in the small blind responded with a three-bet to 1,700. Afriat wasn’t backing down and fired back with a four-bet to 5,800. Nadal had other plans, upping the pressure with a five-bet to 12,600, which Afriat called.

The action heated up even more on the 2♣7♣5♥ flop. Nadal led out with a bet of 6,500, and Afriat quickly raised it to 15,000. Without hesitation, Nadal shoved all in for his remaining 41,200.

After taking some time to think, Nadal ultimately folded. To Afriat's dismay, Nadal flashed Kx10x, revealing a bluff. Afriat, clearly frustrated, quickly covered Nadal's cards and questioned why he would reveal his hand.

Niveau 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Aliaksei Boika opened the action with a raise to 700 from the small blind after everyone folded to him. Mekan Yusupov, in the big blind, responded with a three-bet to 2,400, and Boika made the call.

The flop came down 5♥7♦6♥, and after a check from Boika, Yusupov continued with a 1,300 bet, which Boika called.

On the Q♦ turn, Boika checked again, and Yusupov bumped up the bet to 5,100. Boika, staying consistent, made the call once more.

Both players opted to check the 6♣ river, leading to a showdown.

Boika revealed Q♥J♦ for a pair of queens, prompting Yusupov to shake his head in disbelief. He almost mucked his cards but decided at the last second to show J♠J♣, clearly unhappy with how the hand turned out.

In the very next hand, the table folded around to Boika on the button, and he raised to 500. Both blinds called — Yusupov in the small blind and Simon Lofberg in the big.

The flop came 7♣9♠6♦, and after everyone checked, Boika led out with a 900 bet, which only Yusupov called.

Yusupov checked again on the K♥ turn, and Boika kept up the pressure with a 2,300 bet, getting another call from Yusupov.

Both players checked the J♥ river, bringing on a second showdown.

Yusupov showed A♠6♠ for a pair of sixes, but Boika’s Q♥9♥ for a pair of nines was good enough to take down the pot — Boika scooping up back-to-back wins.
