Bechrakis Coolers Antonius Before Break

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Patrik Antonius
Patrik Antonius

Evangelos Bechrakis opened under the gun to 20,000 and called a three-bet to 70,000 from Patrik Antonius in the cutoff. The flop came {6-Spades}{q-Hearts}{4-Spades} and Bechrakis check-called 60,000.

"Ace-king again?" he asked before calling.

"Maybe."

Both players checked the {6-Diamonds} turn and the {j-Spades} arrived on the river. Bechrakis bet 110,000 and Antonius raised to 360,000.

"I don't believe you," Bechrakis said, leaning forward with a smile. "Call."

Antonius tabled {q-Spades}{9-Spades} but was surprised to see {k-Spades}{8-Spades} for a higher flush.

"Good thing I didn't go all in," he said with a smile.

Players are on break for 20 minutes.

Ruijs Pulls Huge Bluff on Bedell

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Joris Ruijs
Joris Ruijs

Tom-Aksel Bedell raised to 23,000 from the hijack and was called by Joris Ruijs on the button.

The flop came {10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{j-Hearts}, Bedell continued with a bet of 26,000 which Ruijs called.

The turn was the {5-Clubs}, Bedell fired another bet out, now for 85,000 and Ruijs quickly called.

The river completed the board with the {10-Hearts}, Bedell bet 90,000 this time and Ruijs glanced at Bedell before shoving while having Bedell covered. Bedell dived deep into the tank, counting his time bank cards.

While using four time bank cards, Bedell mumbled through his options: "I think it's a bluff..." and some more incomprehensible things before open-folding {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}.

"Show me them?" Bedell pleaded with Ruijs.

Ruijs hesitated for a few seconds, smiled and then showed {k-Spades}{q-Spades} for the bluff.

Bedell got up from his chair, amazed, hollered some phrases, and started pacing up and down next to the table for the next five minutes or so, trying to get rid of the emotions he was going through right now.

Halak Eliminates Stahli

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

On a flop of {5-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Spades}, Jeremy Stahli put in 115,000 only to have Guenter Halak check-raise all in for 150,000 more effective. Stahli thought a bit and pushed his chips in.

Jeremy Stahli: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Guenter Halak: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}

The turn brought a {j-Diamonds} and the river a {3-Hearts}, so Halak scored the elimination on a two-outer on the turn. Stahli calmly wished everyone good luck and headed for payouts.

Zeiter's High Card Wins

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Vicent Bosca opened in middle position and called a three-bet from Diego Zeiter to 64,000. Bosca check-called 89,000 on the {7-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop and then faced 150,000 on the {7-Hearts} turn. He used three time extensions and called, and the river was the {6-Spades}. Both players checked.

Bosca sighed and showed {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}, and Zeiter had a missed draw himself but his {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts} prevailed.

Durnegger shoved all in. It was 169,000 after the count, and Antonius needed considerable time. He used two banks but ultimately released.
