David Salituro

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

Ognyan Dimov and Tamas Adamszki went heads-up in a three-bet pot and around 30,000 in the middle as the flop came 8♣K♦2♣. Adamszki then bet 12,000 from the small blind and Dimov called in the cutoff.

The turn was the 7♥ and Adamszki bet 75,000. Dimov again called and the K♥ fell on the river. Adamszki slowed down and checked before Dimov moved all in for 171,500.

Adamszki burned through three time banks before calling as Dimov showed 7♣7♠ for a turned set that became a full house on the river. Adamszki got up to leave before a recount showed he barely had Dimov covered.

Auzoux Bets Big, Shows Astedt the Bluff

David Salituro

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

A pot of around 90,000 was already in the middle as Niklas Astedt and Gregoire Auzoux went to the river on a board of 9♥6♠2♥9♣4♦. Auzoux then bet 100,000 from the cutoff.

"I have a really good hand but I don't feel like you're bluffing, are you Greg? Just three-betting me with jack-nine and making trips," Astedt said. He burned through multiple time bank cards as he tanked for several minutes.

Auzoux remained silent with his scarf completely covering his face and didn't even notice when Astedt folded. "I folded, Greg," Astedt told him, and Auzoux let out a deep sigh and turned over K♣Q♥ for a bluff.

Teun Mulder joined the field while this hand was in progress.
