Two Pair for Pardo

Maxime Taldir

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Juan Pardo opened to 13,000 from under the gun, and was called by both players in the blinds.

Pardo continued for 9,000 on a 4♥A♦6♥ flop, and once again, he was called twice. However, the 8♦ on the turn slowed down the action, as all three players checked.

On the river 4♣, after the blinds checked again, Pardo bet 58,000. Tsz Him Chan called, but Andrii Derzhypilskyi in the big blind folded. Immediately, Pardo revealed A♥10♦ for two pair. Chan's cartes went into the muck, and he has only 55,000 chips left.

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

The pot stood at 42,000 with two players looking at a flop of 3♣Q♣J♣.

Nisad Muratovic, in the small blind, check-called a bet of 10,000 from Diogo Coelho, in early position.

The 2♠ turn saw a repeat of the action, this time Coelho sized up to 21,000.

The 9♦ river prompted Muratovic to check again. Coelho placed a bet of 68,000; an effective all in with just 5,000 chips behind. Muratovic eventually made the call. Coelho tabled Q♠J♥ for a flopped two pair, while Muratovic frustratedly showed the 10♣ as he mucked.

Maxime Taldir

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Mathieu Selides raised to 13,000 from early position, and was only called by Luke Marsh who defended from the big blind.

Both players decided to check on a flop of K♦10♣3♠. On the turn 6♥, Marsh led out for 12,000. After a few seconds, Selides called to find the 4♥ on the river.

Marsh fired a second barrel of 16,000 with A♦10♥ for a simple ace-high, but Selides called with Q♥Q♠ to win the hand.
