Demidov Feels the Hirt

Julian Hirt raised to 5,500 and PokerStars Team Pro Ivan Demidov moved all in for 39,100. No-one else was really interested but Hirt made the call and tabled his cards.

Demidov: {A-Clubs}{5-Clubs}
Hirt: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}

The flop brought no joy for the Russian, coming {4-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} but the {2-Clubs} turn gave the Russian a straight flush draw. The {2-Hearts} on the river though was the blankiest blank you could ever see and the tournament for the former WSOP Main Event runner-up is now over.

Negreanu Busts Two

Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

The EPT Barcelona Main Event seems to be going much better for Daniel Negreanu than the €50,000 Super High Roller did. With already a decent stack in his possession Negreanu just won a huge pot busting two players at the same time.

Frederic Bussot-Fuentes from France shoved from the early position for 47,600 and Marco Sposito on his immediate left called for around 16,000. Negreanu gave it some thought, entertaining the crowd around the table at the same time, and finally made the call.

Showdown

Negreanu: {A-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}
Bussot-Fuentes: {7-Spades} {7-Hearts}
Sposito: {A-Hearts} {Q-Spades}

The dealer burned and put out the {J-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {A-Clubs} flop, giving Negreanu the lead with a pair of aces, king kicker. The {5-Spades} on the turn didn't change a thing, and neither did the {8-Hearts} on the river. Negreanu collected the pot while sending both his opponents to the rail.

Big Double for the Little Man

Ilan Boujenah is having a storming end to the day, he more than doubled just now, and is a very happy boy.

The action was three-way to an {8-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} flop and there was a 13,200 bet and a call before Boujenah check-raised to 36,000 from the big blind. Morten Christensen was the only caller to the {6-Clubs} turn where he faced a 76,000 shove from Boujenah.

The card was an action card as it gave Christensen many more outs with his drawing {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}.

Boujenah opened {7-Clubs}{8-Spades} for two-pair and faded the {j-Diamonds} river. Boujenah showed us many times last season that he is a hard player to stop once he gets a stack, so watching him tomorrow will be very interesting.

Mattias De Meulder
Mattias De Meulder

Matthias De Meulder opened to 5,100 preflop and then called Jake Cody's three-bet to 11,500. Both players checked the {Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop before De Meulder also checked the {3-Clubs} turn. Cody slid out a small bet of 11,600 and the Belgian Team PokerStars Pro quickly folded.
