Koplimaa Doubles Through McGovern

Level 33 : 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Markku Koplimaa raised to 550,000 from the hijack and Barry McGovern defended his big blind.

The flop came {k-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}, McGovern check-called the 375,000 continuation-bet of Koplimaa.

The turn brought them the {8-Diamonds}, McGovern checked again. Koplimaa decided to barrel a bet of 1,375,000 over the line. McGovern shoved with the bigger stack and Koplimaa snap-called for the 5,800,000 he had behind.

Koplimaa tabled {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for the flush and McGovern held {a-Diamonds}{4-Spades} for a draw to the nut-flush.

"One time!" McGovern asked for while he got up from his chair.

The river completed the board with the {6-Spades} to not change the situation as Koplimaa doubled up.

[Removed:328] limped from the small blind and Adam Hendrix checked from the big blind.

The dealer spread a flop of {j-Clubs}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds} that was checked through to the {6-Diamonds} turn. [Removed:329] checked once more and Hendrix threw in a bet of 1,200,000. [Removed:329] check-called. The {k-Diamonds} filled up the river and [Removed:329] checked for a third time. Hendrix fired 3,000,000 and [Removed:329] went deep into the tank, then threw in chips to call. Hendrix quickly mucked and [Removed:329] tabled {j-Spades}{9-Hearts} to rake in the pot with his pair of jacks.

"Good call," muttered Jai Saha at the table.

McGovern Jams Into Koplimaa; Leste in the Danger Zone

Level 33 : 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Barry McGovern raised the button and was called by Markku Koplimaa in the big blind.

On the {j-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts} flop, Koplimaa checked and McGovern continued for 600,000.

"How much did you start the hand with?" Koplimaa asked and gave it some thought before raising to 1,575,000. McGovern wasted very little time before moving all in and Koplimaa instantly folded.

One hand later, Matias Arosuo raised the button to 525,000 and Jean Leste called in the big blind. The {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} flop went check, check, and Leste check-folded the {q-Clubs} turn when facing a bet of 400,000 to drop to just over three big blinds.

Matias Arosuo opened the action with a raise to 525,000 from the hijack and Andre Silva Dias three-bet jammed the button.

Andre Silva Dias: {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Matias Arosuo: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

"That's a slowroll," Silva Dias sighed. He picked up an open-straight draw on the {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades} flop, but the {3-Clubs} turn and {2-Hearts} river sent the Portuguese to the rail in 13th place for €39,180.
