Bansal Doubles Through Da Silva

Dan O'Hair

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Paawan Bansal was already all in and at risk for his last 24,800 from middle position against Daniel Camelo Da Silva, who had Bansal covered in the big blind.

Paawan Bansal: J♥J♦ All in
Daniel Camelo Da Silva: 8♦8♥

Bansal was in good shape with his jacks and remained that way on the 4♠7♦3♦ flop. The 6♦ turn gave Bansal a bit of a sweat, but the J♣ river improved him to a set to make his double up official.

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Jens Krauthausen opened 2,400 in the hijack and only Gerard Rubiralta came along from the big blind.

Both players tapped the table when the A♦5♥5♠ flop hit the felt. The 3♠ fell on the turn, and Rubiralta led for 4,500, which Krauthausen quickly called.

The dealer rolled the 7♥ on the river and Rubiralta took about ten seconds before splashing out a bet of 12,500 across the line. Krauthausen wasted no time pitching his cards into the muck.

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

David Farkas raised to 2,500 under the gun. Alan Mustafa called in middle position and Sophian Yoan defended out of the big blind.

The flop fell 9♥A♠2♦. Yoan checked and Farkas fired out a bet of 1,800. Mustafa immediately raised to 6,800 and got two quick folds from his opponents.

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Marcos Fernandez opened to 2,500 from middle position and Rodrigo Colon shoved for his last 17,200 from directly behind. Maoz Tenenbaum made it 100,000 to go and action folded back around to Fernandez, who shoved for 30,000 total for a three-way showdown.

Rodrigo Colon: 9♥9♠ All in
Marcos Fernandez: K♠K♣ All in
Maoz Tenenbaum: Q♥Q♠

The 7♣4♦3♣8♣6♣ runout needlessly improved Fernandez to a king-high flush and he dragged the large pot while also eliminating Colon.

Player	Chips	Progress
Maoz Tenenbaum	165,000 128,000	128,000
Marcos Fernandez	80,000 80,000	80,000

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Vid Zagar opened 3,600 in the small blind and Uladzimir Luchkou three-bet 8,500. Zagar tank-called.

The dealer spread a flop of A♣Q♣7♦ and Zagar checked to Luchkou, who took about 10 seconds before pushing his entire stack of 19,400 across the line. Zagar made the call.

Uladzimir Luchkou: Q♥7♠ All in
Vid Zagar: A♠10♥

Luchkou flopped two pair against the top pair of Zagar, then the J♠ turn gave Zagar some extra outs with a straight draw, but the 9♥ river was a brick.

Vid Zagar	103,000 7,400	7,400
Uladzimir Luchkou	57,000 57,000	57,000
