Early Action

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

It’s very early in the day and a lot of hands are being played quite cautiously as the tables fill up and players begin to suss out their opponents tendencies, playing styles and, as overheard already, “Your range.” But where there are poker players there will always be action and for the short time we observed one table it seems that PokerStars Qualifier Jack Melki from France doesn’t want to hang around.

Melki took a decent 10k pot from another PokerStars Qualifier, Ukrainian Albert Mykhaylyuta. On a final board of {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} Mykhaylyuta had flopped two pair with {q-}{9-} but was out flopped by Melki who held {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}. Not long after Melki took another pot from the same player when running sixes on the turn and river counterfeited Mykhaylyuta’s flopped two pair. He was not amused.
