Dedusha Chips Up

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante

Radu Simionescu opened to 1,100 first to act and was called by Riad Chahaf on the button and Artan Dedusha in the small blind.

"How many callers?" Kfir Ivgi in the big blind asked and Dedusha replied "three and a half," Ivgi called right after.

The {a-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop was checked and Dedusha bet the {j-Spades} turn for 2,000, only Ivgi called and prompted a "only me and you, fish" from his poker buddy. On the {6-Diamonds} river, both players checked and Dedusha tabled {a-Spades}{3-Hearts} for a pair of aces as winning hand.

Racolta Rising; Arnautu Climbing

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

Defending 888live Bucharest champion Andrei Racolta has doubled recently to get well above the starting stack, while Daniel Mazilu and Alexandru Arnautu are hovering around that one table over.

Arnautu bet the {k-Clubs}{10-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop for 1,200 and was called by Mazilu only before a second bet of 2,100 on the {9-Clubs} also resulted in a call. After the {2-Hearts} river, Arnautu carefully cut out a bet of 5,200 while his 30-second shot clock ran down and slid it forward with 10 seconds to go. Mazilu quickly folded and the pot was shipped to Arnautu.
