Waigel Lays it Down

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Sergey Bagirov is on the rise, tripling up from where he started. Just now he took down a pot vs Ezequiel Waigel that added further to his already growing stack. Bagirov had called behind one opener and Waigel raised to 16,500. Both opponents came along and they saw a {6-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop.

There were two checks to Waigel, who then contined for a relatively small 17,500. The preflop raiser folded but Bagirov thought about it before clicking to 35,000. This prompted Waigel to tank for a while before deciding that folding was the right thing to do.

Two Pair vs Two Pair

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Artur Martirosyan opened to 4,500 in middle position and got one call on the cutoff and Igor Grytsak came along from the big blind.

The flop fell {9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} and Grytsak checked before Martirosyan continued for 6,000. The player in the cutoff passed and when the action came back to Grytsak who upped it to 15,000. Martirosyan thought about it and made the call.

On to the {j-Spades} turn and Grytsak barreled for 23,000, which Martirosyan called. The final card out was the {10-Hearts} and it went check-check and both players turned over their cards.

Artur Martirosyan: {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Igor Sedrak: {10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

Martirosyan had the better two-pair and takes a tidy pot, whilst Sedrak is still in very good shape.
