Jelassi Loses Massive Pot

Level 30 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

Sotirios Koutoupas opened to 210,000 from the button and then called as Ramzi Jelassi three-bet to 565,000 from the big blind.

The flop came down {2-Spades}{k-Clubs}{q-Clubs} and Jelassi lead out with a 375,000 pot and Koutoupas called. The {6-Spades} was greeted with a 1,000,000 bet from Jelassi and a call from his Greek opponent. The {4-Clubs} river saw Jelassi check and Koutoupas instantly checked behind.

Neither player showed their hands, but Jelassi mucked his hand and Koutoupas helped himself to the giant pot.

Koutoupas Grows In Confidence

Level 30 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

Sotirios Koutoupas has grown in confidence over the last couple of orbits and is not a million miles away from being the chip leader.

In a hand that has just been completed and on a flop reading {7-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{5-Clubs}, Koutoupas checked from the small blind, David Boyaciyan tried his luck with a 225,000 bet and Koutoupas called.

Neither player seemed interested in the {K-Hearts} turn and they both checked, but Koutoupas lead out for 475,000 on the {10-Clubs} river and Boyaciyan released his hand.

No Betting the Nuts?

Sotirios Koutoupas took another pot of Ramzi Jelassi but he failed to get any extra value once he made the nuts.

Jealssi raised to 200,000 from the button and Koutoupas peeled from the big blind to see a {q-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop. Both players checked before Koutoupas check-called a 200,000 bet on the {6-Diamonds} turn. Both players then went back to checking on the {9-Diamonds} river.

Jelassi declared a seven and opened {a-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Surprisingly Koutoupas opened {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for a back-door nut flush.

Jelassi Retakes The Chip Lead

David Boyaciyan open-limped the small blind and Ramzi Jelassi checked. Boyaciyan checked to Jelassi on the draw heavy {6-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop, but when Jelassi bet 350,000 Boyaciyan check-raised to 700,000. Jelassi called and the dealer put out the {8-Diamonds} turn.

Boyaciyan did not slow down, he bet 700,000 and Jelassi called. The {Q-Hearts} on the river was checked by both players.

Jelassi showed {6-Hearts}{6-Spades} for a set of sixes, and it was good against the {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} of Boyaciyan.

He's Back!

Ramzi Jelassi's early level blip is well and truly over. He's back in the chip lead after taking a really big chunk out of David Boyaciyan.

Jelassi three-bet to 500,000 after Boyaciyan opened to 200,000. The Dutchman called and both players checked all the way to the river of the {3-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Spades} board.

It was at that juncture that Boyacin bet 400,000 and he called quickly when Jelassi raised to 1,175,000.

Jelassi opened {a-Clubs}{2-Hearts} for a full house and a disappointed looking Boyaciyan mucked his hand.
