Rollercoaster Double for Yazbek

Level 3 : 100/200, 200 ante

Marcello Miniucchi had raised from the under-the-gun position and small blind Emile Yazbek was very short with just 1,900 in front of him. He moved all in and Miniucchi called.

Emile Yazbek: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Marcello Miniucchi: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

The flop was {J-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{4-Hearts} and Yazbek was still in the lead, but he threw his arms in the air when the {8-Diamonds} turn fell. He threw his hands in the air once more when the {10-Diamonds} river came down to give Yazbek a straight.

He stacked his chips and has still only 4,200 but in the current level that is 21 big blinds.

Meijer van Putten With a Double Barrel

Level 3 : 100/200, 200 ante
Jasper Meijer van Putten

It folded around to Jasper Meijer van Putten on the button and he raised to 600. Small blind Valentin Cristea called and the big blind folded.

The flop fell {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} and Cristea check-called another bet of 600 from Meijer van Putten to see the {6-Diamonds} turn. The Dutch 2016 EPT Prague Main Event champion put in a bet of 1,400 after Cristea checked to him and they saw the {7-Hearts} come off the deck.

Both players checked this time and Cristea showed down {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} which was enough to make Meijer van Putten muck his hand.

Margereson Chips Up

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

Scott Margereson sat in the hijack and he had checked to his neighbor in the cutoff. The board read {K-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{7-Spades} and the pot had roughly 18,000 in it.

The player in the cutoff thought about it for a moment before checking behind. Margereson showed {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and that was enough to take the pot down.

Margereson is now back over the starting stack of 30,000.

Moshe Wins One, Loses One

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

Asi Moshe bet 6,600 into a pot of about 12,000 from under the gun on a board of {3-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{8-Hearts}{q-Clubs}. His opponent on the right took some thinking time but released his cards.

The next hand, Moshe found himself on the turn, this time out of position and facing aggression. The cutoff had bet 3,500, about half pot, on {j-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. Moshe called and the river was the {q-Clubs}. The bracelet winner checked and this time tank-folded to 6,500.
