More For Mizzi

Level 19 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante

Sorel Mizzi raised to 120,000 under the gun plus one with {J-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and Vladimir Troyanovsky three-bet to 275,000 from his immediate left. Mizzi tanked for quite a while before putting in a four-bet to 415,000. Troyanovsky had {K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} and called this raise in position.

The flop brought out {4-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{J-Hearts} and Troyanovsky folded to Mizzi's 370,000-chip bet.

Top Pair Good for Troyanovsky

Level 19 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante

Vladimir Troyanovsky is back over two million chips after top pair was good for him on a four-heart board.

He raised to 125,000 on the button and Max Altergott peeled from the big blind to see a {k-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop. Both players checked to the {10-Hearts} where Altergott led for 125,000. Troyanovsky called before both players checked the {3-Hearts} river.

Troyanovsky's {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} was easily ahead of Altergott's {6-Spades}{5-Spades}. He's up to 2.08 million, whereas Altergott dropped to 1.43 million.

Mercier Takes One Down

Level 19 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante

Vladimir Troyanovsky raised from the button to 125,000 and Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier three-bet to 290,000 from the small blind. Troyanovsky called and the flop brought out {K-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}. Mercier fired out 230,000 and Troyanovsky folded his cards.

No hole cards were shown, but we do know that Mercier is slowly climbing back to the chip lead.

Seiver Shoves Twice, Wins Both

Level 19 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante

Scott Seiver has got his stack up to 1.3m after two successful three-bet shoves.

First of all, he three-bet all in with pocket fives after Vladimir Troyanovsky opened to 125,000. The Russian folded.

The very next hand Max Altergott opened to 125,000 with {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds} but made a good lay down after Seiver shoved for 1,070,000 with {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}.
