Quads on the Flop for Paivarinta

Maxime Taldir

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Miklos Zsuffa raised to 160,000 from the button and was called by Vili Paivarinta in the big blind.

The dealer fanned a flop of K♥K♣K♠, and Zsuffa continued for 100,000. Paivarinta quickly check-called, and he check-called again after Zsuffa bet 220,000 on the turn 2♠.

On the river 8♥, Paivarinta checked one more time. Zsuffa checked back, and he was lucky he didn't bluff the river with A♠9♠ because Paivarinta flopped quads with K♦J♥.

Big Double Up for Zsuffa

Maxime Taldir

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Rostyslav Sabishchenko bet 160,000 from under the gun and was called by Mario Alina to his left.

Miklos Zsuffa in the small blind then shoved for 1,600,000. The big blind folded, and Sabishchenko four-bet all-in for 3,000,000 to make Alina fold his 9♠9♥.

Miklos Zsuffa: A♣J♥
Rostyslav Sabishchenko: A♠K♠

Zsuffa was lucky enough to hit a pair directly on a flop of 6♣J♣10♠. And even if Sabishchenko had a straight and a flush draw with the turn 7♠, Zsuffa doubled up after the river 10♥.

Zsuffa Folds the Best Hand

Maxime Taldir

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Vili Paivarinta raised to 160,000 from the cutoff and faced Miklos Zsuffa, who defended from the big blind.

Paivarinta bet 100,000 on the Q♣5♥9♦ flop and Zsuffa check-called, then he check-called again after Paivarinta bet 250,000 on the turn 3♠.

The K♦ landed on the river, and Paivarinta decided to go all-in for 2,2000,000. Zsuffa went into the tank for a very long moment, but he decided to fold A♦9♣. He didn't know he had the best hand, as Paivarinta had 9♠8♠.

Maxime Taldir

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Everybody folded to Ioannis Giannakopoulos in the small blind, who raised to 240,000. Rostyslav Sabishchenko to his left three-bet all-in for 2,000,000, and Giannakopoulos called, being the player at risk for 1,700,000.

Ioannis Giannakopoulos: A♦10♣
Rostyslav Sabishchenko: A♥J♠

On a board of 2♠7♥A♣4♥2♠, Giannakopoulos found no help and was eliminated.

Pelacho Eliminated in 8th Place (€3,950)

Maxime Taldir

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Vili Paivarinta opened to 160,000 from the cutoff, but Mario Alina on the button three-bet to 400,000. Pelacho in the big blind then four-bet all-in for 950,000. Paivarinta folded, but Alina made the call.

Pelacho: A♣Q♦
Mario Alina: K♣J♠

The board of 10♥K♥K♦4♠Q♣ looked like a nightmare for Pelacho, as Alina hit trips on the flop to send him to the rail in 8th place.
