Cimpeanu Hits Worst Card in the Deck

Level 4 : 200/400, 50 ante

Ion Silviu Scobai bet the {A-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} turn and called the shove of table neighbor Cosmin Cimpeanu in a heart beat. Cimpeanu turned over {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} for a full house, but the two outer to improve his hand was in fact the worst card in the deck as Scobai had flopped a full house with {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts}.

Only the case four could save Cimpeanu, yet a blank {5-Diamonds} river was of no help.

Toma Builds Stack

Level 4 : 200/400, 50 ante

On the river of a completed board of {5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}, Dan Petrea bet 2,200 and was called by Razvan Constantin Gherghe. Nicolae Toma raised it up to 16,000 and that forced two quick folds.

One hand later, Gherghe raised it up to 1,400 and was called four ways. The flop fell {Q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades} and Gherghe bet 5,000 with some 6,000 behind. That was enough to force folds all around and Gherghe more than made up for the chips he had just lost.

Mihart Jams Up Stack; Pandilica Joins

Level 4 : 200/400, 50 ante

With the turn reading {K-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{5-Clubs}, Gheorghe Akos Burlacu in the under-the-gun position and Ionut Catalin Mihart in the small blind both invested 3,400 each to see the {9-Spades} river complete the board. Mihart immediately moved all in and Burlacu was sent into the think tank. He elected to use one time bank extension to get an additional 60 seconds to consider his options with some 10,750 chips behind, and ultimately sent his cards into the muck.

At the same time one table over, Florin Pandilica took a seat with a fresh stack of 30,000.

Vivian Saliba
Vivian Saliba

At the very end of the third level a big pot was brewing over on table three and 888poker ambassador Vivian Saliba was involved in the action. On the heads-up turn of {J-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{10-Spades}, Alexandru Cristian Bobu checked and subsequently check-raised from 7,000 to 17,000 and Saliba called on the button.

The {7-Spades} river completed the board and Bobu checked once more, Saliba moved all in and the Romanian called. Saliba turned over {A-Spades}{K-Spades} for the nut flush and Bobu sent his cards into the muck.
