Tekel Scores Massive Double in Classic Hold'em Cooler

Dan O'Hair

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Andrej Tekel opened to 5,000 first-to-act and was three-bet to 17,500 by Hanseok Ko from directly behind him. Action folded back around to Tekel, who announced a four-bet to 42,000.

Ko responded with a shove, which was enough to put Tekel all in for approximately 150,000. Tekel quickly called and a showdown was held.

Andrej Tekel: A♦A♠
Hanseok Ko: K♠K♣

Ko would need some help, but the A♣5♣10♥ flop left Ko all but drawing dead.

The 5♦ turn and 10♠ river left Tekel best with a full house and he doubled up through Ko.

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

Sebastian Szychulski raised to 4,000 from under the gun and received a call from Ricardo De Andrade in the hijack. Sofianos Vergitsis three-bet jammed for 35,000 and only Szychulski called, with the covering stack.

Sofianos Vergitsis: A♠K♦
Sebastian Szychulski: 8♥8♦

Vergitsis outflopped Szychulski on 5♠A♦7♣, and his top pair would hold on the 10♥9♥ runout. He doubled up while both Szychulski and De Andrade retained their six-figure stacks.

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

Artsiom Panasiuk opened to 4,000 from under the gun and was called by Eros Calderone in the hijack and Willy Murgolo in the small blind.

All three players checked on the 7♥9♥8♥ flop and 9♦ turn.

The Q♥ river brought four-to-a-flush and action checked to Calderone, who bet 3,500. Murgolo pondered a bit before deciding to call and Panasiuk got out of the way.

Calderone turned over 7♠5♠ for nines and sevens while Murgolo tabled 8♣7♣ for nines and eights, which was good for the pot.

Artsiom Panasiuk	315,000 38,000	38,000
Willy Murgolo	80,000 15,000	15,000

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

Kamil Szewczyk opened with a raise to 4,000 from the hijack and Patrick Schratz reraised to 12,000 from the cutoff.

Chu Anh Minh was next to act on the button, and he took some time before announcing his all-in, for 65,000 total.

The table, including Szewczyk and Schratz, quickly folded and Minh raked in some uncontested chips.

Patrick Schratz	134,000 134,000	134,000
Chu Anh Minh	86,000

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

Emmanouil Chrysovergis opened 4,000 under the gun and Vito Vella defended the big blind.

When the A♥J♣6♠ flop hit the felt, Vella check-called a bet of 2,000.

The 7♦ fell on the turn, and Vella checked once again before Chrysovergis continued for 6,500. Vella thought about it for a couple of seconds and slammed a small stack of blues across the line for a raise to 30,000. Chrysovergis quickly mucked his hand.

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

Willy Murgolo opened to 4,000 form middle position, and was called by Alvaro Gomez in the cutoff. But in the small blind, Eros Calderone three-bet to 13,500. Murgolo folded, then Gomez shoved to force Calderone to go all in for a total of 21,500.

Eros Calderone: K♠9♠
Alvaro Gomez: K♥Q♥

Calderone was on the edge of elimination after the flop of J♣Q♠4♥ was revealed. But he was lucky enough to hit a runner-runner flush thanks to the turn 6♠ and the river 3♠ to double up.

Alvaro Gomez	158,000 158,000	158,000

Dziubdziela Gets the Dub and Doubles

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

Mats Ullereng raised to 4,000 from the button and Marcin Dziubdziela three-bet to 16,000 from the big blind. Ullereng put in the extra chips and a flop of 10♣K♠8♣ appeared.

Dziubdziela continued for 7,000, which Ullereng called. Another bet from Dziubdziela then followed on the A♥ turn, this time for 17,000.

Ullereng took some time before committing the same amount to the pot for a call, and the 7♦ river rolled off. Dziubdziela went for it all and put his entire stack of 41,000 in the middle, and a quick call followed from Ullereng.

Dziubdziela showed K♥K♣ for a flopped set of kings, and that was enough to trump the two pair of Ullereng, who played A♠10♠.

Ullereng was left with less than ten big blinds, and they would soon be transferred to another player as well, resulting in his elimination.
