Richard Hayes

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Christoph Neuerer A♣K♥
Marcello Miniucchi J♦10♣

Neurer was in good shape with top pair versus an open-ended straight draw. The K♦ turn and 2♥ river brought no help for Miniucchi and Neurer scooped a full double up.

Tyler Foran

Level 10 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Daniel Koloszar opened 2,500 under the gun, and Jason Wheeler three-bet 6,500 next to act. The action folded back around to Koloszar and he tossed in a call.

The dealer fanned a flop of Q♦9♦9♥, and Koloszar checked to Wheeler as he continued for 5,000. Koloszar raised to 13,500 and Wheeler jammed for about 29,000. Koloszar wasted little time making the call and both hands were tossed on their backs.

Jason Wheeler: A♣A♦
Daniel Koloszar: A♠Q♥

Wheeler was in great shape until the Q♣ fell on the turn, filling Koloszar to a full house. The J♣ river was no help for Wheeler as he stood up from the table.

Level 10 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

The board read A♠9♥2♣3♣ when Samuiel Stan checked from the hijack to Pasquale Braco in the cutoff. Braco then made a bet of 11,500 in the pot of roughly 23,000, which Stan raised to 28,500.

Braco thought the situation over for several minutes, before settling on a fold. Stan surpassed the six-figure mark while Braco still have more than 35 big blinds to play with.

Ace-High is Good for Graells

Maxime Taldir

Level 10 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Three-way on a board of Q♥2♦K♦4♠, Alejandro Vazquez in middle position, a player in the cutoff and Ricardo Graells in the small blind all checked on the flop and the turn.

But after Graells checked a third time on the river 2♠, Vazquez bet 1,500. "It's a very small bet," Graells said when the cutoff folded. But the Swiss player was too curious, so he called.

Vazquez's face seemed to say that he had nothing. A fact confirmed when he showed 7♠5♠. Graells' hand wasn't much better, but his A♥5♥ was good enough to win.

Victor Castanedo opened to 2,500 first-to-act and was called by Petr Novotny on the button and Rui Querido Martins in the small blind.

All three players checked on the 9♦3♣6♠ flop and Martins checked to Castanedo on the 2♠ turn, who fired 10,000 into the middle. Only Martins called.

The 8♥ completed the board and both players checked. Martins turned over 5♥4♥ for a turned straight and Castanedo mucked, awarding the pot to Martins.
