Angelescu Reenters, Hits the River

Level 4 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Victor Angelescu was forced to reenter shortly before the break and just took down a pot to get off to a much better start on his second bullet.

Gheorghe Velcea bet 600 on a flop of KAQ before Angelescu, in the cutoff, raised to 2,600. Velcea called and both players checked the Q turn.

The river came the 2 and Angelescu then bet another 7,500. Velcea took his time before calling as Angelescu showed 64 for the rivered flush to win the pot.

Level 3 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Liviu Bogdan Olaru
Liviu Bogdan Olaru

Three-handed on a flop of J810, Liviu Bogdan Olaru bet 4,000 from the button before Andrii Zaika raised to 12,000 in early position. Alexandru Budai called as action went back on Olaru.

He then put in a raise to 30,000 and Zaika got out of the way. Budai, though, stuck around to see the 2 turn, where Olaru bet another 30,000.

Budai flashed KxQx and mucked as Olaru reciprocated by showing him 97 for the flopped straight as he took in the pot.

Gabriel Penescu

Marius Dragoita, Victor Angelescu, Gabriel Penescu, and David Arbel put in 4,500 as they went four-handed to the 977 flop.

Penescu, in the big blind, then tossed out 6,500 and Angelescu called, as did Arbel in the hijack. Dragoita also came along from the small blind.

The turn came the 6 and Penescu bet 36,000 this time. Angelescu and Arbel quickly folded, but Dragoita went into the tank for several minutes.

He eventually decided to fold as Penescu flashed AA, taking down the pot and increasing his stack to around 200,000, the largest in the room so far.

Angelescu Doubles Off Penescu Again

Level 3 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Victor Angelescu: AQ
Gabriel Penescu: A10

Angelescu had Penescu dominated and was poised for yet another double up as the 387K4 board kept him in front as he took another pot off his table nemesis.

Budai Shoves, Clock Called on Berinde

Level 3 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Alexandru Budai
Alexandru Budai

Bogdan Berinde put in a three-bet to 7,500 from the big blind and was called by both Vasile Zagon in middle position and Alexandru Budai in the cutoff.

The flop came 595 and Berinde continued for another 7,500. Both Zagon and Budai called as the 6 fell on the turn.

Berinde then checked, as did Zagon before Budai came out with 8,000. Only Berinde called to the 6 river where he checked over to Budai again. Budai then shoved the rest of his stack in the middle, a bet of around 50,000, as Berinde went deep into the tank.

The clock was eventually called after a few minutes before Berinde slid his cards into the muck.
