Sertovic Almost Triples Up

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Jasmin Sertovic, Fazeel Munawar, and Daniele Vesco all didn't have that many chips left when all of it went to the middle. Sertovic had the best hand holding {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} and he had to hold against the {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs} of Munawar and the {A-Hearts}{2-Spades} of Vesco.

The {10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{8-Clubs} board came down and Sertovic eliminated Vesco while winning a chunk of Munawar.

Flush over Flush for Petleshkov

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Viliyan Petleshkov raised from the under-the-gun position to 18,000 and big blind Preben Stokkan defended.

The flop fell {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} and both players checked to see the {7-Spades} turn. Stokkan took over the betting lead when he put 45,000 in the middle. Petleshkov called the bet and they went to the river.

The {5-Clubs} completed the board and Stokkan took his time to figure out what to do next. He then moved a stack of twenty 5,000 chips forward and Petleshkov immediately threw a single 1,000 chip in the middle to call.

Stokkan opened up {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, but that was no good against the {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} of Petleshkov.
