Calamusa Shows Sfez a Bluff

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

On a completed board of {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{10-Spades}, Lucas Sfez bet 19,000 out of the small blind. He was then put to the test by Pierre Calamusa in the cutoff, who raised it up to 70,000.

Sfez was stunned for a while and pondered about his next move before eventually folding. Calamusa flashed the {a-Hearts}{k-Spades} for a bluff and then asked in French if Sfez had folded a jack. "No, I had a straight with eight seven," Sfez replied.

Gamboa Doubles Through Spragg

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

Just before the first break of the day, Benjamin Spragg defended the big blind and then bet big on the {a-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts} turn. Quilcate Gamboa reluctantly called all-in for the last 33,000 and the cards were flipped over.

Quilcate Gamboa: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}
Benjamin Spragg: {a-Diamonds}{4-Spades}

"Excuse me?!" a rather upset Spragg said as he was up against the top set. The {q-Clubs} river secured the double for Gamboa and vaulted both players on nearly the same stack.

Naveiro Martin Doubles Through Abdelmoumene

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

Karim Abdelmoumene three-bet to 12,000 out of the small blind and then reluctantly called the shove by the initial raiser Inigo Naveiro Martin for 42,000 total.

Inigo Naveiro Martin: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Karim Abdelmoumene: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The dominated pair had no equity anymore until the {7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{q-Hearts} turn to make the {j-Diamonds} river a formality.

Beresford Chips Up Through Colillas

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

In a battle small blind versus button, Ramon Colillas checked the {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop and Conor Beresford bet 12,000 for Colillas to call. The same action repeated on the {10-Spades} turn for 36,000 and Colillas then led the {6-Clubs} river for 22,000.

Beresford was visibly confused by the line but eventually dropped in calling chips after some consideration. Colillas mucked his cards to forfeit the pot and Beresford earned the pot without the need to show his cards.
