Maxime Taldir

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

From the hijack, Eskil Kvamvold opened to 700, and was called by Oleg Jdan on the button, and by Andrei Volkov in the big blind.

The dealer fanned a flop of 3♥A♥K♦. Volkov and Kvamvold checked, so Jdan decided to bet 1,700. He was quickly called by Volkov, while Kvamvold folded.

After that, the 5♠ and the 5♥ came turn and river, and both players checked.

First player to show his cards, Volkov revealed A♦7♥ and won the pot.

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Under the gun, Samuel Fournier raised to 500. He was called by Georges Azar in the cutoff. But on the button, Amirreza Arami three-bet to 2,600. Fournier and Azar called.

On the flop J♦2♠4♠, Arami made a continuation-bet of 2,900. But this time, only Fournier called. Then both players checked on the turn 7♠.

The 6♠ came on the river, and Fournier decided to bet a very small 1,500. In front of him, Arami raised to 10,000. Fournier eventually called and won the pot because Arami mucked his cards.

On the next hand, Arami moved all in for 8,000 chips and was called by Stylianos Christodoulou.

Amirreza Arami: 9♠9♥
Stylianos Christodoulou: J♦J♣

Cristodoulou hit a set on 4♥10♣2♣6♠J♥ to eliminate Arami.

In the cutoff, Roger Abed raised to 400. Aurélie Reard on the button folded, but both players in the blinds called.

The dealed fanned a flop of A♥J♥5♥, that everybody checked. But even before the turn 3♣ landed on the table, Tony Aziz in the small blind bet 1,500. A pot size bet which was way too much for Atil Okay in the big blind and Abed, who both folded.

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

In the cutoff, Timo Laasonen raised to 300, but Christos Leantzis on the button three-bet to 1,300. Konstantin Voronin in the small blind called, as well as Laasonen.

All three players seemed to want action. But on 9♥10♠8♣8♦4♥, nobody bet and they all tapped the table.

"Sixes are good," said Leantzis after the river, while looking at Voronin who directly mucked his cards. Laasonen then revealed A♥K♠. Leantzis looked at his hand, and folded his cards.

In the cutoff, Aydin Zeynettin opened to 300, and was called by Ali Soleimanian on the button, and by both players in the blinds.

On the flop J♦8♠6♥, Zeynettin made a continuation-bet of 500. Everybody called, except for the small blind. Then all three players checked the turn K♠.

The 7♦ landed on the river, and Pawel Bielawski in the big blind took the lead, betting 600. Zeynettin called, but Soleimania eventually folded.

Bielawski showed J♣8♥ for two pair, and won the pot as Zeynettin mucked his cards.

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

There are three players so far on Table 6 : Shohre Marjaei, Emin Kurtulus and Tudorel Costache.

Costache won the first pot of the day. Then in a limped pot, all three players checked on K♥4♣10♦. On the turn Q♠, Marjaei on the button bet 500, and was only called by Kurtulus in the small blind. Finally, both players checked on the river 3♦ and Marjaei scooped the pot with Q♥8♣ against J♠4♦.

On the next hand, Kurtulus opened to 300 on the button, and was called twice. On 10♥2♦9♣, Kurtulus bet 500. Costache didn't back down, but Marjaei folded.

Both players checked on the turn 9♦. And on the river, 6♣ Costache took the lead, betting 600 to make Kurtulus fold.
