Aces Hold Against Kings

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Just before the blinds went up, two local Estonian players were battling it out. Raimo Kaljulaid opened from under the gun before Priit Aavasalu three-bet from the big blind.

Kaljulaid four-bet to 1,450 before Aavasalu quickly five-bet to 3,450. Kaljulaid then six-bet to 12,000 and Aavasalu paused for about a minute before he called.

Aavasalu bet 5,500 after the {9-Clubs}{4-Spades}{6-Clubs} came on the flop. Kuljulaid tanked for about a minute before he declared himself all-in for about 18,000. Aavasalu then thought for a minute before he made the call.

Raimo Kaljulaid: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Priit Aavasalu: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}

Aavasalu, who was slightly covered, shook his head in frustration after he saw his kings were dominated by his opponent's aces. He left his chair after the {5-Diamonds} came on the turn followed by the {7-Clubs} came on the river.

Bluff Doesn't Work for Kaljulaid

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Rasmus Parts checked on the river with the {5-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{3-Spades}{7-Diamonds} on the board with about 7,000 in the pot before Egon Holdhus bet 400. Raimo Kaljulaid raised to 3,800 and got a quick flat-call from Parts. Holdhus paused for about 30 seconds before he folded.

Kaljulaid was the last aggressor so was supposed to be the first to show his cards. Instead of doing so, he tossed them into the muck and the pot was awarded to Parts.

Better Two Pair for Tiitinen

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

Robert Kallikorm checked with the {3-Spades}{a-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{6-Spades} on the board before Mikko Tiitinen bet 6,300 into a pot of around 8,000. Kallikorm went into the tank for more than a minute before he made the call.

Tiitinen turned over {a-Hearts}{q-Spades} for top two pair.

"I had a good hand too," said Kallikorm. He quickly flashed {a-}{6-} to the table and confirmed to his neighbor that he had a lower two pair when he missed the quick flash.

Thorvaldsson Completes a Flush

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

Kristen Hoyforslett bet 5,000 into a pot of around 8,000 after the {8-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts} came on the flop. Jon Thorvaldsson jammed his stack of around 28,000. Hoyforslett tanked for a minute before he called off for less.

Kristen Hoyforslett: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Jon Thorvaldsson: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

Thorvaldsson had a minor edge in the hand with an over-pair to his opponent's flush draw. The advantage got bigger after the {5-Clubs} came on the turn.

However, the {6-Spades} completed the board on the river and Hoyforslett began to get out of his seat.

"Will you be reentering?" asked the dealer?

"Probably, but not right now," answered Hoyforslett.

Koplimaa Chips Up

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

Markku Koplimaa was well-known in Estonia even before he won the EPT National Barcelona this summer for €585,000. He enters just about every Main Event that comes to Tallinn, so it is no surprise he is already in action at the Coolbet Open Main Event.

So far so good for Koplimaa as he just won a decent pot. He check-called a bet of 1,150 into a pot of under 2,000 after the {2-Spades}{q-Hearts}{8-Spades} came on the flop. Koplimaa checked again before he called a bigger bet from his opponent of 4,250 after the {7-Spades} came on the turn.

Both players checked after the {9-Spades} came on the river. Koplimaa turned over {k-Spades}{q-Clubs} and won the pot with the second nut flush after his opponent tossed his hand into the muck.
