Ivo Donev Doubles Up

[user24788]

Ivo Donev doubled up with {A-Diamonds}

against Ciprian Hrisca's pocket nines. Donev flopped a Queen. His hand held up and he doubled up. Ivo's stack is now close to 300,000.

I Tothed the Nuts!

[user46392]

Zoltan Toth called a minimum raise in the big blind to see a {Q-Spades}

flop, which all three players checked. Come the {A-Clubs}

on the turn, Toth bet 70,000, and Gino Alacqua called. Toth bet again on the frankly irrelevant river and Alacqua called again -- only to much surprise when Toth turned over {K-Hearts}

for the nuts, putting him up to 875,000.

Toth Is Our New Chip Leader

[user46392]

Ciprian Hrisca raised under the gun, and Zoltan Toth attempted to limp in behind. He was told that this was not allowed, and had to call the 40,000. It turned out well for him, though, as his {K-?}

made top pair on the flop, and he called a bet from Hrisca, and then Hrisca called his bet on the turn. They checked the river and Hrisca could only boast pocket sevens. Toth is now our new chip leader on around 1,000,000.
