Sahamies Drops One to Litvinov
Action folded around to Artem Litvinov in the small blind and he limped, which inspired Ilari Sahamies to raise to 9,000 from the big. Litvinov made the call and then check-called bets of 15,000 and 25,000 on the 
flop and 
turn respectively.
Both players then checked the 
river and Sahamies showed 
for a flopped two pair, but it was no good as Litvinov showed 
for the nut flush.
"Oh," Sahamies said with a hint of surprise. "I needed an eight on the river."

EPT9 Barcelona: Peter Jetten Gangnam Style
Level 6
: 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
Peter Jetten has promised to dance Gangnam style around Barcelona if he wins the €50,000 Super High Roller event. Kristy is definitely rooting for that to happen.
O'Dwyer Thriving on Second Bullet
Ilya Bulychev opened for 6,000 from middle position and received a call from Steve O'Dwyer on the button. The former proceeded to check-call a bet of 10,000 on the 
flop, and then checked the 
turn. O'Dwyer didn't slow down and slid out 22,000, which proved to be enough as Bulychev folded.
So far, buying in for a second time looks to be a wise choice by O'Dwyer.
steveodwyer steveodwyer got busto soon's last 100k chips with A5cc>KQcc on 743ccx, up to 350k on my 2nd bullet.

The dealer opened 
on the flop and Moseley checked. Smith, however, did not and bet 15,000. Silverman quickly folded and Moseley called.
The turn brought 
and Smith fired another 38,000, which Moseley called. The river card came the 
and was checked by Moseley once again. Smith wasn't ready for a showdown just yet and went in for 125,000. Moseley thought about it for a bit and then mucked his hand.
