Buldygin Prevails Against Adams

Level 45 : 600,000/1,200,000, 150,000 ante

Timothy "Tim0thee" Adams made it 2,640,000 to go from the under-the-gun position and picked up one customer in Viacheslav "VbV1990" Buldygin from one seat over. The {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} flop brought no action and Adams' bet worth 5,167,800 on the {10-Hearts} turn was called by Buldygin.

The {3-Hearts} then fell on the river and Adams check-folded to a bet worth 13,624,200.

Buldygin Battles With Adams

Level 45 : 600,000/1,200,000, 150,000 ante

Three ways to the {k-Hearts}{8-Spades}{7-Spades} with "tikidiii" as the initial button raiser, Timothy "Tim0thee" Adams checked and so did Viacheslav "VbV1990" Buldygin. "tikidiii" bet 4,885,824 and Adams was the only caller. The {5-Clubs} followed on the turn and Adams check-folded to a second barrel worth 13,852,214.

Adams stopped the recent misery when he defended the big blind against Buldygin and check-called a continuation bet on the {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop. The {10-Diamonds} turn and {4-Clubs} river were checked behind by Buldygin and Adams tabled {j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for a flush.

"tikidiii" then raised to 2,640,000 again and Adams three-bt the button to 7,200,000. That was all it took for the Canadian to win the pot.

Adams raised the next pot and was called by Buldygin on the button, which led them to the {k-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop. Two checks later the {q-Hearts} appeared on the turn and again both opted to check it down. The {q-Clubs} river completed the board and Adams used a portion of his time bank before making it 6,072,000 to go.

Buldygin also invested some additional time and raised it up to 18,307,080, which forced a fold from Adams.

"WhatIfGod" Forces Fold From Buldygin and Adams

Level 45 : 600,000/1,200,000, 150,000 ante

The open raise of Viacheslav "VbV1990" Buldygin in the cutoff was three-bet to 7.2 million by "WhatIfGod" on the button and Buldygin called to see a flop of {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, on which both players checked. Buldygin bet the {j-Hearts} turn for 6,271,500 and received a call.

The {q-Hearts} fell on the river and Buldygin checked, which prompted a bet of 22,800,000 into 29,493,000 by "WhatIfGod". After using a decent portion of the remaining time bank, Buldygin elected to fold.

"WhatIfGod" was then successful with a second barrel against Timothy "Tim0thee" Adams on the {q-Spades}{9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts} turn and dragged in the next pot.

Lots of Small Pots

Level 46 : 700,000/1,400,000, 175,000 ante

Viacheslav "VbV1990" Buldygin raised to 2.8 million and was called by Timothy "Tim0thee" Adams in the big blind. As they checked to the {q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{q-Spades} river, a third check by Adams saw Buldygin bet 1,793,750 and claim the pot without showdown.

David "MissOracle" Yan then. raised and won the pot on a {a-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop with a successful continuation bet.

The same applied for "WhatIfGod" when they bet for 2,152,500 on the {q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop, as "tikidiii" check-folded from the big blind.

Yan Wins Three Out of Four

Level 46 : 700,000/1,400,000, 175,000 ante

Sweden's "WhatIfGod" check-raised a continuation bet by David "MissOracle" Yan on the {q-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop and Yan folded to drop below 21 million once again.

"WhatIfGod" limped the next small blind and Yan checked to the {k-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Spades} flop, on which a min-bet by "WhatIfGod" received a call. They checked the {8-Hearts}n turn and "WhatIfGod" check-folded the {6-Hearts} river after a bet worth 4,338,250 by Yan.

Yan also three-bet an open raise of "WhatIfGod" to rake in the next pot and kept his food on the pedal by raising the hand after. Viacheslav "VbV1990" Buldygin came along out of the big bind and checked the {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} flop. Yan made it 1,540,000 to go and earned a call to then fire the {3-Diamonds} turn for 6,566,000. Buldygin quickly check-folded this time.

"WhatIfGod" Leaves Yan Short

Level 46 : 700,000/1,400,000, 175,000 ante

Timothy "Tim0thee" Adams defended his big blind against a min-raise by "WhatIfGod" and opted to check-call for 2,152,500 on the {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop. The Canadian also checked the {9-Diamonds} turn and a second bet by "WhatIfGod" won the pot uncontested.

One hand later, Viacheslav "VbV1990" Buldygin also came along from the big blind against "WhatIfGod" and check-called for the very same amount on the {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}{5-Clubs} flop. The {6-Spades} turn was checked and a Buldygin bet worth 8,610,000 on the {7-Hearts} river won the pot without resistance.

In a battle of the blinds, "WhatIfGod" opened to 4.2 million next and David "MissOracle" Yan came along to min-raise a bet on the {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop, making it 5,565,000 to go. "WhatIfGod" bet-called and then check-called the {k-Hearts} turn for 5,101,250.

The {j-Diamonds} river completed a possible straight and flush draw, prompting the shove of "WhatIfGod" and a snap-fold by Yan.

Yan Doubles Through WhatIfGod

Timothy "Tim0thee" Adams beat "WhatIfGod" in two showdowns for small pots and then check-raised a {q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop to force a fold from David "MissOracle" Yan.

In the very next hand, Yan three-bet to 9.8 million in the cutoff with fewer than 2.5 million behind and "WhatIfGod" called in the hijack. The {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} flop was bet for 2.8 million by "WhatIfGod" and Yan called all-in.

David "MissOracle" Yan: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
"WhatIfGod": {a-Hearts}{4-Spades}

Yan locked up the double on the {k-Clubs} turn and the {7-Hearts} river was meaningless.
