"NUTZBOT" On Top With 600K

Level 20 : 1,250/2,500, 325 ante

"Banderivets" opened with a min-raise to 5,000 from early position and "NUTZBOT" called from the hijack to see the flop come down {7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}.

"Banderivets" bet 8,500, but was raised to 21,975 by "NUTZBOT". A call from "Banderivets" landed the {4-Spades} on the turn and after checking, "Banderivets" called the 39,975-chip bet from "NUTZBOT", delivering the {A-Hearts} on the river. Another check from "Banderivets" led to a hefty bet of 105,975 from "NUTZBOT".

A call from "Banderivets" revealed the bad news as "NUTZBOT" tabled {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for a full house to hit the 600,000 chip mark.

Bleznick Doubles Through Halling

Jared Bleznick

Jared "Harrington10" Bleznick opened to 5,500 in early position and was called by Fredrik "H@££INGGOL" Halling in middle position and "Sangiovani" in the small blind.

The flop came down {10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} and it was checked to Bleznick. He bet 13,200, only getting called by Halling. The {3-Diamonds} hit the turn and Bleznick bet again, this time 28,600. Another call from Halling led to the {2-Hearts} river. Bleznick shoved for 72,242 and sent Halling into the tank for a bit.

Ultimately Halling called with {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, but he was beat by Bleznick's {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}.

Czuczor Rising Up The Counts

Marton Czuczor
Marton Czuczor

From middle position "tom6969222" min-raised to 4,000. Marton "noirduck" Czuczor popped it to 10,700 from the cutoff, getting folds from the rest of the table, but not from the raiser.

The flop fell {J-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and "tom6969222" check-called 12,400. The {4-Spades} hit the turn and it was more of the same, with "tom6969222" check-calling 18,600 from Czuczor. When the {3-Spades} hit the river, "tom6969222" checked for a third time. Czuczor shoved, forcing "tom6969222" to a decision for his remaining 54,540.

After a few moments "tom6969222" called with {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, but it was behind the entire way as Czuczor tabled a winning {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts} to win the hefty pot.
