Truijers Doubles Through Chan, Still a Microstack
Roberto Truijers raised from the button and Terrence Chan reraised from the small blind. Georgios Kapalas in the big blind thought about it for a while but folded; Truijers called all in for a little less than the reraise and they were on their backs.
Truijers: 
Chan: 
Board: an extremely decisive 
Truijers doubled to a still woefully short 85,000 or so - or that's what he had following the color up that took place immediately after.
Abghari Doubles Through
Down to just 67,000, Abghari raised it up from the button, only to find resistance in neighbour Roberto Truijers who announced raise from the small blind. Abghari's chips quickly found their way into the middle, Truijers matching the 67,000 to bring us to a showdown.
Surprisingly, Ahmad was in splendid shape, his comfortably ahead of Truijer's 
. The 
flop provided no help, and although the 
was close, it was no cigar as the river came the 
to double Abghari through.
Abghari now back up the 164,000, whilst the Dutchmen dips back down to around 80,000.
Bullets Shoot Abghari Down
Matthew Matros, who seems to be involved in many of the major pots, reached a 
flop in position with Ahmad Abghari where both players went loco, Matros putting in a final raise of 60,000.
The turn was an interesting card, and one that elicted a check from Abghari. Matros led and Abghari called.
The 
river was yet another potentially action killing/halting card which led to Abghari turning aggressor with a bet of 30,000. However, when Matros immediately made it 60,000, Abghari picked up his chips with a firm shake of the head before throwing them in and being shown 
.
Abghari inevitably mucked his hand and looked down dejectedly at his now 67,000 stack. Matros, meanwhile, is now up to 550,000 and second in chips to Terrence Chan.
Matros Takes One Off Potter
Matthew Matros raised to 30,000 preflop, Jason Potter raised to 45,000 from the blind and Matros called. Potter bet the 
flop and Matros called, only for both players to check the 
turn. On the 
river, however, Matros was less hospitable, leading for 30,000.
"Man, have you got the A-8?" probed a perplexed Potter to little response. In the end, he released the hand, and Mattros picked up the pot. As a result, Potter has dropped to 330,000.

What the Rail Wants, the Rail Gets
Georgios Kapalas made an opening raise, and Jameson "Pumpkin" Painter reraised all in for just 3,000 more.
"Yeah, quad up!" shouted a member of the Pumpkin rail.
Ahmad Abghari in the small blind and Roberto Truijers in the big blind both called, and after briefly pretending that he might fold, to some amusement around the table, Kapalas called too.
The three players not all in just checked down the 
board and the all-in Painter was first to turn over his cards - {qc] for two pair. One by one, his opponents all mucked. The rail went wild as Painter did indeed quadruple up, to 132,000.
Kapalas Gets Crafty
Georgios Kapalas raised and then called the reraise from immediate neighbor Matt Matros.
Kapalas check-called on the 
flop and checked a second time on the turn; this time Matros checked behind. He bet out on the river though and Matros called, only to discover that Kapalas had been attempting some sneakiness with 
for trips. He mucked.
Matros - 300,000
Kapalas - 450,000
Set Over Set
A big three-handed pot emerged as Terrence Chan opened, Matthew Matros raised, Adrian Dresel-Velasquez four-bet and both opponents called.
On the flop, the action checked around to Dresel-Velasquez who led for 15,000, only for Chan to make it 30,000, and Matros 45,000. With his hands on his head, Dresel-Velasquez sat back in his chair before eventually folding, and Chan made the call.
The turn came a , and led to a check-raise from Chan. Matros called. On the river, Matros called a single bet, only to see that his 
had been out-setted by Chan's 
. However, it was a bittersweet victory for Chan who could easily have crippled Matros - if not eliminated him - if it weren't for the turn scare card.
