Bastos Flops a Set

Josh Noy

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Marek Sulc opened from under the gun to 300, with Stefano Scippa calling in the cutoff. Eugenio Bastos then slid out a three-bet to 1,200 on the button, producing a fold from Sulc and a call from Scippa.

Both players checked after seeing the 2♦Q♠7♣ flop, with Scippa checking again on the K♣ turn. Bastos fired 600 and was called to the 5♦ river.

Scippa checked on last time and folded after Bastos continued for 1,200. Bastos took down an early pot, showing the table pocket queens for a flopped set.

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Pascal Frezza and Jari Mahonen were heads up when a flop of 4♠8♥10♦ was put on the table. Frezza checked from the cutoff before Mahonen put in a bet of 800 from the button. Frezza then raised to 2,500, and Mahonen confirmed the amount before making the call.

The 8♣ turn was then checked through before Frezza fired a small bet of 2,200 on the 3♣ river. Mahonen flicked in a call and Frezza tabled A♠10♣ for top pair.

"Kicker problems," Mahonen declared as he flashed his 10x before tossing his cards into the muck.

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Heads up on a flop of 2♦5♥J♥, Symeon Alexandridis checked from the big blind to Bartłomiej Basiaga, who bet 300 on the button. Alexandridis then check-raised to 1,200 and Basiaga called.

Alexandridis continued for 700 on the J♣ turn and Basiaga again called.

The A♣ completed the board and Alexandridis cut out an overbet of 8,000 and placed it into the middle. Basiaga thought better of it after tanking for a bit and folded — conceding the pot to Alexandridis.

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

The action was caught on the river, where Tomas Kolarik checked to Stefan Drusca. Drusca then put Kolarik all-in on the board of A♥J♠2♣6♣K♣, for roughly 7,500 chips, around the same size as the pot.

Kolarik immediately called but regretted his decision when Drusca tabled J♦J♣ for a set of jacks. Kolarik tabled his K♠J♥ for the inferior hand and swiftly left the tournament area.

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Ioannis Taramas, Felix Schneiders, and Emmanuel Wouters gathered 4,000 chips in the middle when the A♦Q♥2♣ flop was dealt. All three players checked, as did they on the J♣ turn.

The 2♦ river then also checked through, and Wouters showed his 9♠4♠, playing the board. Schneiders then tabled 8♦8♣ for two pair, and Taramas quickly mucked his cards.

"Eights won? Insane," exclaimed Schneiders while he raked in the pot.

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Benjamin Millian already had a raise of 1,300 in front of him from early position and was reraised to 2,800 by Spyridon Lamprou in the cutoff. Millian called.

Millian checked to Lamprou on the J♦8♠J♥ flop and he continued for 2,100. Millian then check-raised to 7,000 and Lamprou called.

Millian shoved for 17,500 after the 8♥ turn double-paired the board, sending Lamprou deep into the tank. Lamprou eventually decided to call to put Millian at risk.

Benjamin Millian: A♣J♠
Spyridon Lamprou: K♠K♥

Lamprou was drawing slim against Millian's full house and the 7♦ river bricked out for Lamprou, who was left with just 5,000 following the hand.

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

In a modest pot of 2,000 chips, Vanni Losi led out for 500 chips from the small blind on a board of 5♣J♥6♦4♣. Fellow Italian Mauro Fungo called from the button before both players checked down the 10♥ river.

Losi showed K♠J♦ and his top pair was good enough to rake in an early pot.

On another table, a more sizable pot of 11,500 chips had been gathered when the completed board of 10♣3♠J♦A♦K♠ laid on the table.

Eljano Hysaj then added another 7,200 to that from the button, but Jong-Hak Lim quickly check-folded from under the gun, awarding the pot to Hysaj.

Tekeshi Takahashi opened to 300 from the cutoff and was called by Mokokatsu Uhara in the small blind and Juha Helppi in the big blind.

Everyone checked on the 3♠A♣5♥ flop and then Helppi bet 400 on the 3♣ turn. Only Helppi called.

Both players went back to checking on the Q♦ river and Helppi tabled 10♦5♦ for fives and threes. Takahashi turned over A♦9♦ for a better two pair and collected the pot.
