Plenty of Three-Bets Around

Level 42 : 400,000/800,000, 100,000 ante

David "MissOracle" Yan min-raised to 1.6 million and "tikidiii" three-bet to 4,925,457 from one seat over. Yan clicked it back to 12 million and folded to a shove.

Yan remained active and three-bet an open-raise by Viacheslav "VbV1990" Buldygin to collect back some of his losses. Buldygin won the next two pots and Enio "Bozzano JNR" Bozzano three-bet jammed into a Buldygin open to win the pot.

Buldygin then three-bet against Timothy "Tim0thee" Adams" and won those chips back, too.

Yan Springs Into Action Again

Level 43 : 450,000/900,000, 112,500 ante

Two hands in a row David "MissOracle" Yan was the initial raiser. He found no resistance in the first hand and claimed the blinds and antes.

In the second hand, he made it 1.8 million to go and Timothy "Tim0thee" Adams three-bet to 5.256 million to go. Yan activated his time bank and four-bet to 12.033 million, which shut down Adams.

Viacheslav "VbV1990" Buldygin then min-raised on the button and "WhatIfGod" called from the big blind. A check-call for 2,362,500 followed on the {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} flop and "WhatIfGod" check-folded the {2-Hearts} turn when facing a larger bet of 7,087,500 into 9,450,000 by Buldygin.

"WhatIfGod" Takes From "tikidiii"

Level 43 : 450,000/900,000, 112,500 ante

The action kicked off with a button min-raise to 1.8 million by "WhatIfGod" and that triggered a call by "tikidiii" out of the big blind.

Once both checked the {10-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} flop, it was "tikidiii" that bet the {6-Diamonds} turn for 3,025,477 and earned a call. They checked the {9-Diamonds} on the river, prompting a bet of 6.3 million by "WhatIfGod" and that was enough to claim the pot right there without showdown.
