Dyrstad Eliminates Suominen

Level 5 : 150/300, 300 ante

Gert Laanemets bet 3,900 with about 8,000 in the pot after the {8-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{10-Spades} appeared on the flop.

Allan Rasmus Dyrstad three-bet to 10,000 before Henri Suominen four-bet jammed for 30,900.

Laanemets tanked for several minutes. He asked Drystad how much he had in his stack. Drystad gave him a better view of his chips and Laanemets went back into the tank before he folded.

Drystad wasted no time when the action was on him and snap called.

Allan Rasmus Dyrstad: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Henri Souminen: {J-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The table let out a collective gasp when they saw Dyrstad had middle set and Souminen held top two-pair. The {8-Hearts} came on the turn and the {3-Hearts} came on the river and Souminen grabbed his drink and left the tournament area for at least his first bullet.

Mattila Out Because He Couldn't Get a Massage

Level 5 : 150/300, 300 ante

There are two masseuses that are available during the Coolbet Open. Most of the seats are convenient to get a massage but not all.

Jussi Mattila, who recently entered the Main Event, was leaving the tournament area.

"I took a big bad beat with my seat draw and can't get a massage," said Mattila.

We asked for more information and he shared it was a bit more complex than just that. He first lost a huge pot getting it all-in with a gut-shot straight draw and a flush-draw {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts} on a {Q-Hearts}{J-}{8-Hearts} board. Mattila wasn't able to complete either draw as blanks came on the turn and the river.

A short while later, Mattila got the rest of his stack in with {A-}{J-} preflop against an opponent holding {A-}{K-}. He was unable to get any help and lost the rest of his chips.

Mattila shared he is here to play and plans to get right back into the action.

"I hope to get a better seat and a massage," said Mattila with a smile.

Level 4 : 100/200, 200 ante

Konstantin Gorbunov opened to 500 from early position before Sergei Karanin three-bet to 1,200 from one seat over and Kristijan Zitting four-bet to 2,250 from the small blind.

Gorbunov cold called the four-bet and the other player folded.

Zitting fired out a bet more than covering the 5,375 remaining in his opponent's stack after the flop came {10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. Gorbunov quickly called.

Kristijan Zitting: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Konstantin Gorbunov: {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}

Gorbunov was ahead when all the chips were in the middle and doubled up after the {5-Spades} came on the turn and the {q-Diamonds} completed the board on the river.

Level 4 : 100/200, 200 ante

One change was made since the last Coolbet Open. Instead of each player tossing in an ante before each hand, now only the big blind tosses in a single larger ante.

Level 4 has just kicked off with blinds at 100/200 and a big blind ante of 200.

Level: 4

Blinds: 100/200

Ante: 200
