De Gea Raises the River

David Salituro

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

On one of the first hands back from break, Hector De Gea raised to 1,000 in middle position before an opponent in the hijack three-bet to 2,800.

De Gea called once action came back around to him and they went heads-up to the 9♥3♣6♠ flop. The hijack then continued for 3,300 and De Gea called.

Both players checked the 7♦ turn and De Gea also checked the Q♦ river. His opponent then bet 6,500 and De Gea paused for a moment before raising to 23,000.

The hijack tanked for more than a minute before mucking his hand as De Gea took down the pot.

Esquerdo Shoves the Flop

David Salituro

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Carlos Esquerdo had to reenter after being knocked down to a short stack earlier in the day and just put his chips in the middle once again.

Esquerdo went three-handed to a flop of 6♠7♠10♣ when he led out for 2,000 in the small blind. The cutoff then raised to 8,000 and an opponent on the button folded.

Esquerdo then slid forward his last 31,000 and his opponent tanked for about a minute before mucking as Esquerdo, who already won the EAPT Barcelona Cup this week, took down the pot.

David Salituro

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Francesc Parramon was in the cutoff and built a pot of around 6,000 against an opponent in the hijack heading to the J♦5♦4♦ flop. The hijack then moved all in for 5,200 and Parramon called.

All-In Player: Q♠3♠
Francesc Parramon: A♥K♥

Parramon was ahead with just ace-high as the board ran out 10♠7♣, keeping him in front and sending his opponent to an early exit.

Boyer Snaps One Off

David Salituro

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Pascal Boyer bet 2,500 from early position on a flop of A♦7♥10♣ before an opponent on the button raised to 5,000. Boyer called and the turn came the 3♦.

Boyer checked over to his opponent who moved all in for 10,500. Boyer put the chips to call underneath his cards and slid them into the middle, turning over A♣8♠ for top pair. His opponent could only show K♠10♥ for a pair of tens and was already standing up from his seat as the 4♦ fell on the river to send him to the rail.
