Another One For Kursevich

Level 31 : 60,000/120,000, 10,000 ante

Vadzim Kursevich raised to 250,000 in the cutoff and Bruno Jais once again defended his big blind.

The {Q-Spades}{5-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop was checked by both and when the {6-Hearts} hit the turn, Jais checked one again. Kursevich bet an amount we didn't quite catch, but Jais did call to see the {Q-Spades} river. Both checked and Kursevich tabled {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts}.

King high was good and he took down the pot.

A Great Comeback on the Cards?

Yorane Kerignard has doubled up again and is looking to try and make the greatest comeback since Michael Martin a few seasons back at EPT London.

Vadzim Kursevich opened to 230,000 and tank called when the Frenchman three-bet all-in for 1,130,000 from the button.

Kursevich: {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Kerignard: {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}

The board ran {8-Clubs}{7-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{10-Spades} to make Kerignard a straight. The partisan crown went wild-ish.

Kerignard Killing It

Don't hate the player.
Don't hate the player.

Facing a 250k open from Vadzim Kursevich, Yorane Kerignard pushed all in again and Kursevich made the quick call.

It was {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} for Kursevich, but Kerignard held {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}.

The {k-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop kept Kerignard in the lead, and although the {2-Clubs} turn gave Kursevich additional outs, the {7-Hearts} river wasn't one of them.

Once holding less than 10 big blinds and on life support, Kerignard is now a player again as Kursevich is slipping.

Kursevich Wins From Jais

Level 31 : 60,000/120,000, 10,000 ante

Vadzim Kursevich opened to 250,000 from the cutoff and big-blind-defender Bruno Jais called from there yet again.

The flop came down {Q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and both checked. When the {10-Diamonds} hit the turn, Jais bet 250,000. Kursevich called to see the {8-Hearts} river where Jais checked after a few moments. Kursevich fired 650,000 and took it down.

All Pre Flop Now

Level 32 : 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante

All the action has been pre flop since this level started. A lot of raise and take, and a couple of three-bets. The best hand that happened saw a four-bet shove from Vuong Than Trong to take a pot down.

He opened to 340,000 from the cut-off to face a three-bet to 785,000 from Vadzim Kursevich on the button. Than Trong was having none of that sort of behavior though and four-bet shoved. Fold from Kursevich.
