Kelly Makes Quads

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Joseph Mezailles opened to 1,500 from early position and JP Kelly called to see a {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop. Mezailles fired 3,000 and Kelly made the call to see the {Q-Clubs} on the turn.

Mezailles checked and Kelly bet 3,400 which Mezailles called.

The river was the {3-Diamonds} and Mezailles checked again. Kelly bet 12,000 with only about 5,000 back. Mezailles didn't take too long to call and Kelly immediately showed {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} for flopped quads. Mezailles flashed {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} for the overpair.

Beer is Here

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Jake Cody opened for 1,200 in first position. Pierre Calamusa called from mid-position and Gareth Teatum from the big blind threw in the extra chips. The dealer dealt a flop of {3-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs} and the waitress arrived to deliver Teatum’s beer. (To be fair he’s not the only one to be enjoying a post dinner drink). He checked, Cody checked and a bet of 2,100 won the pot for Calamusa.

Rinzed

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Fahd Kaabat opened for 1,200 and was called by the player sat to his immediate left, David Zakine. It folded round to Daniel Rinzis who shoved his small stack. Kaabat folded but Zakine made the call with {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}. He was up against the at risk player’s {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}. The final board read {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{q-Spades} and Rinzis was eliminated.

Pagano Can't Beat Aces

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante
Luca Pagano
Luca Pagano

When we arrived at Luca Pagano's table he was already stacks deep into a pot with Frenchman Nazim Guillaud.

The entire board was already out there and displayed {10-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}. Pagano had checked to Guillaud who bet 8,500. Pagano went into the tank and eventually tossed in two 5,000 chips.

He would only receive 1,500 back though, as Guillaud showed {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} and the Italian Team PokerStars Pro had to muck.

Bhaggoe Cracks Aces

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Eduard Bhaggoe has played multiple EPT's and was rather successful in the one he attended this season. He made a deep run in Barcelona at the beginning of the season where he finished 7th for €143,000.

With a big characteristic smile Bhaggoe just told us how he had cracked aces with kings preflop all in. Bhaggoe had opened the hand himself and wasn't about to fold when he got some action behind him.

His opponent had aces but would get a bad beat after a king hit the flop. The turn brought a third spade to the table and Bhagoe's opponent did have the {A-Spades}. The river paired the board though, giving Bhaggoe a fullhouse and securing him the double up.

This time all three players checked and the dealer put out the {4-Diamonds} on the river.

Renga checked and MacPhee bet 6,300. Metcalf and Renga both folded and MacPhee moved back up to 34,000.
