Vasilopoulos Sends Kryza to the Rail
Level 4
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Georgios Vasilopoulos raised to 1,000 from under the gun and Fazeel Munawar reraised to 3,000 on the button. Vitaliy Kryza shoved all in for 13,900 in the big blind and was called by both players.
The flop fell K♥8♠2♣ and Vasilopoulos bet 8,000 into the dry side pot. Munawar quickly folded and the remaining two hands were tabled. Vasilopoulos turned over A♥K♣ which had Kryza in big trouble with A♦J♥.
The 5♠ on the turn and the 4♦ on the river were no help for Kryza who was sent to the rail.

Level 4
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Cristian Mirita limped in from under the gun which invited Neil Mcculloch to come along from the small blind. Rafal Boratynski raised to 1,500 in the big blind and only Mirita called.
The flop came A♦Q♦4♦ and Boratynski continued with a bet of 1,500. Mirita called and the 2♥ landed on the turn. Boratynski sized up a bet of 5,000 this time and Mirita stuck around for the 5♥ on the river.
Boratynski announced a bet of 9,000 and Mirita countered by shoving all in. Boratynski instantly mucked his cards and Mirita raked in the pot.
"Bluffing?" Mirita questioned.
"I had to try," Boratynski responded.

Dasilva Collects a Pot with Some Table Talk
Level 3
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
After a limp in early position, Chris Dasilva raised to 800 in the hijack. Nicholas Rishover three-bet to 2,500 on the button and the action folded back to Dasilva who called.
The flop came A♠J♥5♠ and Dasilva quickly checked. As Rishover pondered his decision, Dasilva started to offer some advice.
"Whatever you're thinking, do the opposite," Dasilva encouraged which led to Rishover checking it back.
The turn was the Q♣ and Dasilva fired out a bet of 2,500. Rishover laid his hand down and Dasilva claimed the pot without giving Rishover any sniff of what his holding was.
