Polchlopek Back On Top

Sam Capra opened the action from the button and was three-bet to 80,000 by Michal Polchlopek in the small blind. A call from Capra saw the {3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop hit the felt. Capra led for 30,000 and this is when Polchlopek jammed all in. A call from Capra and the two turned their hands over.

Polchlopek: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Capra: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}

Both player held over pairs but Polchlopek's were much better and when the turn and river bricked out, Polchlopek took down the big hand to leave Capra with around 150,000.

Pick-Axe Pickering

Someone get Jamie Pickering a drink. We've never witnessed him play so few hands.

He just played one against Mark Betts but played it very cautiously, for him. He raised to 29,000 and Betts defended his big blind to see a {4-Spades}{10-Spades}{q-Hearts} flop. Pickering continued for 42,000 and was check-called to the {q-Clubs} turn. The two players checked there and on the {j-Spades} river. Pickering opened {k-Clubs}{k-Spades} and Betts mucked.

Shipping Time

A couple of three-bet shoves later and Oliver Speidel has more than 200,000 chips again.

Betts Accepts Olive Branch

Mark Betts was on the slide but picked off an Oliver Speidel bluff to move back up to 700,000 chips.

Speidel opened to 22,000 and was called in two spots en route to a {q-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{j-Clubs} flop. He continued for 40,000 and was only called by Betts. Both players checked the {5-Clubs} turn before Speidel had a stab with a 60,000 bet on the {2-Diamonds} river. Betts called with pocket fours, beating his opponent's king-ten.
