Demos Demostenous has re-entered and saw an all in confrontation on his new table. A raise to 600 by Hristian Panchev was called by Daniel Ionescu and Iulian Schiopu got his last 3,600 in from the big blind. Both Panchev and Ionescu called and the flop of ![]()
![]()
was checked. Panchev bet the
turn for 3,000 and Ionescu called before a bet of 6,000 on the
river let Ionescu sigh-fold.
Panchev tabled ![]()
only and Schiopu tripled with ![]()
.
