Lewis Triples Through Metalidi and Chisu

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

We arrived after the preflop action to find both Emyr Lewis and Artem Metalidi all in and at risk against Danut Chisu. Lewis was all in and at risk against both of his opponents for his last 6,825 while Metalidi had moved all in over the top from the next seat over for 9,525. Chisu had both players covered from the button and the hands were rolled over.

Lewis: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Metalidi: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}
Chisu: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

The board ran out {10-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, giving Lewis a Broadway straight to the ace. He scored the triple up while Metalidi's set of aces were able to best Chisu's top two pair.

Lewis' triple up brought his stack to 23,000 while Metaldi dropped to just 5,400. Despite the hit for Chisu, he's still sitting on a solid stack of approximately 62,000.

The board read {5-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} when we found Dario Sammartino and Fabian Quoss engaged in heads up action. Sammartino checked fourth street, prompting Quoss to bet 3,000. Sammartino called and the {2-Clubs} completed the board on the river.

Both players checked and Sammartino rolled over {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}. Quoss mucked his cards and Sammartino was awarded the pot. With this win, Sammartino's stack is up with 64,000 while Quoss has dropped to 39,000.

Jacks for Christensen

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

In a hand right before the dinner break, Charlie Carrel raised to 1,000 from under the gun, and Jonas Christensen called from the cutoff seat. Sergi Escote called on the button, and Julien Mariani called from the big blind.

The flop came down {8-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts}, and Mariani checked. Carrel bet 2,200, Christensen called, Escote folded, and Mariani called.

The turn was the {10-Hearts}, and Mariani checked. Carrel bet 4,300, and Christensen made the call. Mariani folded.

The river was the {7-Diamonds}, and both Carrel and Christensen checked.

Carrel tabled the {Q-Spades}{10-Spades} for a pair of tens, but his hand was no good against the {J-Spades}{J-Hearts} that Christensen turned up and the Dane won the pot.
