Mizzi Can't Call

Paul Volpe opened to 13,000 in the hijack seat, Olivier Busquet three-bet to 30,000 on his direct left, Sorel Mizzi cold four-bet to 66,000 on the button, and Volpe folded.

Not 10 seconds after Volpe's cards hit the muck, Busquet moved all in for 234,000 total. Mizzi tanked for the better part of 90 seconds, during which time he cut out enough chips to make the call, then folded.

"Eights?" Mizzi asked Busquet. "Were tens good?"

"What does good mean?" Busquet fired back.

"It was flipping," Fabian Quoss chimed it.

"Ace-queen of spades," Busquet then told Mizzi deadpan.

"Ace-queen," Mizzi echoed, claiming to have the same hand.

"Sucks for you," Busquet said. "The spot that is."

"Spades were coming," Mizzi joked.

Massive Hand Sees Katchalov Take Chip Lead

Eugene Katchalov with a massive double
Eugene Katchalov with a massive double

Niklas Astedt opened tp 12,000 from under the gun, Gurgen Melkonyan called in the small blind, and Eugene Katchalov three-bet to 31,000 from the big blind. Astedt four-bet to 58,000, Melkonyan folded, and Katchalov five-bet to 100,000.

Astedt grabbed all of his red T25,000 chips, pushing out a six-bet, and Katchalov moved all in for 348,000. Astedt called.

Katchalov: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Astedt: {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, and Katchalov doubled to over 700,000 chips. Astedt was left with just 30,000 and busted shortly thereafter.

Three-Way Battle

Olivier Busquet opened to 12,000 on the button, Fabian Quoss called out of the small blind, and Sorel Mizzi defended his big blind.

The flop fell {3-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}, and the action checked to Busquet, who fired 16,000. Quoss called, Mizzi check-raised to 52,000, and both Busquet and Quoss called.

The turn was the {8-Hearts}, the trio rapped the table, and the river brought the {9-Hearts}. The action checked to Busquet again, and he slid out 75,000. Both Quoss and Mizzi folded.
