Santerne Busts Cassin

Richard Hayes

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Action folded to Thomas Santerne in the small blind, who moved all in with a stack covering Matteo Cassin in the big blind, who max-late-registered and had literally just sat down.

Cassin looked at his cards, shrugged his shoulders, and moved his starting stack into the middle.

Matteo Cassin: Q♥8♦ All in
Thomas Santerne: A♦J♠

Santerne was ahead but the 9♥8♠5♣ flop put Cassin in front with a pair of eights. The J♦ turn reversed their positions again and the 7♦ river was a brick to send Santerne the pot.

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Eirik Lund Presterud raised to 8,000 . Bart Lybaert and Katie Lindsay called him from late position.

Presterud bet 8,000 on the 3♦7♥3♥ flop, which only Lybaert called.

Presterud checked upon seeing the 3♠ fall on the turn and faced a bet of 15,000 from Lybaert. Presterud called.

After Presterud checked the 6♥ on the river, Lybaert moved all in for 33,000. Presterud thought it over briefly before flicking in the call.

Lybaert showed A♣A♥ for a full house with threes full of aces, which earned him the pot as Presterud tabled 4♣4♠ for an inferior full house.

Eusebiu-Nicolae Jalba opened 8,000 under the gun and called a three-bet of 20,000 from Aliaksandr Shylko on his left.

When the A♣Q♣5♥ flop hit the felt, Jalba checked to Shylko who continued for 8,000. That was enough to earn the pot as Jalba mucked his hand.

Brett Slezak

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Rubens Sellam limped from early position and then called after Kevin Muders raised to 16,000 from middle position.

On the 9♥8♦6♣ flop, Muders continued for 14,000 and Sellam put in the call after some deliberation.

The turn brought the 2♣. Sellam checked to Muders who jammed for 55,000 effective and Sellam snapped it off to put himself at risk.

Rubens Sellam: J♣10♣ All in
Kevin Muders: K♦K♣

Sellam had a combo draw while Muders held an overpair. The 2♥ river bricked out for Sellam as he hit the rail and Muders added to his already massive stack.

Bart Lybaert: J♠J♥ All in

Ali Boucharaba: 9♠9♦ All in
Jonatan Rodrigo: J♣J♥

Boucharaba ran into the bigger pocket pair of Rodrigo and couldn't pull ahead as the board completed with the 6♠ on the turn, and the Q♣ on the river.

Richard Hayes

Level 16 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Mario Trattou opened to 11,000 under the gun and was faced with a three-bet jam to 59,000 by Salvatore Senes in the cutoff. Action folded to Mathijs Mulder in the big blind, who four-bet jammed for ever so slightly more, 61,000. Trattou quickly got out of the way.

Salvatore Senes: 8♣8♥ All in
Mathijs Mulder: A♦A♠

Senes was unfortunate — Mulder had woken up with the goods in the big blind and the K♥9♣5♥2♣J♦ runout confirmed his fate.
