Two Bets Enough For Vaskaboinikau, Just One For Grafton

Level 12 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Mikalai Vaskaboinikau raised to 24,000 in the cutoff and Kayhan Mokri called from the big blind.

The flop came 888 and Vaskaboinikau continued for 15,000. Mokri called and Vaskaboinikau bet another 60,000 on the 9 turn.

"Pocket jacks?" Mokri asked as he mucked.

"Why did you call the flop? What were you hoping to see?" Vaskaboinikau replied, taking in the pot.

The next hand, Sam Grafton made it 30,000 in the cutoff and Timothy Adams defended. Both players checked to the river on a board of 479A3.

Grafton fired out 55,000 and Adams gave it some thought before folding.

"Three aces. Why didn't you raise?" Grafton said to Adams.

Vaskaboinikau Shoves Four Times

Level 12 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau

Mikalai Vaskaboinikau was left short stacked after handing over the double up to Timothy Adams and just survived four all-in shoves in a row.

The second time, Kayhan Mokri tanked in the big blind after Vaskaboinikau moved in for around 200,000 and folded what he claimed were pocket fives. "Fives I call myself," Vaskaboinikau told him. The next hand, Vaskaboinikau shoved again and showed AQ when the rest of the table folded.

Mokri then raised to 26,000 in the cutoff and Adams called on the button. Vaskaboinikau, in the big blind, moved all in for 253,000 and Mokri quickly folded. Adams gave the decision some thought but eventually joined Mokri in the muck as Vaskaboinikau showed the 6.

Timothy Adams raised 26,000 in the cutoff, and Steve O'Dwyer three-bet to 64,000 on the button. Adams made the call.

Adams Snaps Off Vaskaboinikau

Level 12 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Timothy Adams
Timothy Adams

Mikalai Vaskaboinikau raised to 24,000 in the hijack and received calls from Kayhan Mokri in the small blind and big blind Timothy Adams.

All three players checked the A92 flop before Mokri led out for 62,000 on the 5 turn. Adams used two time banks before he called.

Vaskaboinikau then splashed in a raise of 395,000, leaving himself 10,000 behind, and Mokri quickly folded. Adams, though, snap-called for his last 210,000 and turned over 22 for a flopped set.

Vaskaboinikau could only show AK and handed over the massive double once the 8 completed the board.
