Zachmanidis Catches Artiga-Pacheco Making a Move

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

With around 60,000 in the pot on a board of 8539, Jorge Artiga-Pacheco bet 30,000 from the small blind and Georgios Zachmanidis called in the hijack.

The river was the A and Artiga-Pacheco slid forward 100,000. Zachmanidis snap-called for his last 87,500 and Artiga-Pacheco showed QJ for a bluff. Zachmanidis turned over 88 for a set as he took the pot to double up.

"Pinocchio," tablemate Fabrice Maltez joked with Artiga-Pacheco, pretending to grow his nose.

"I tried," Artiga-Pacheco replied, laughing off the failed bluff.

Aram Zobian is also at this table.

An American, Norwegian and Israeli Walk Into a Bar...

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

Tobias Holmeide opened to 4,000 from under the gun and Gal Bar three-bet to 12,500 from the next seat. Action folded to David Coleman in the big blind, who cold-four bet to 30,000.

Holmeide quickly folded while Bar five-bet jammed a stack of around 110,000. Coleman quickly called with a bigger stack.

Gal Bar: AK All in
David Coleman: AA

Bar was drawing incredibly thin before the flop of 3K9 gave him some hope of hitting a third king. The 9 turn didn't change anything and Bar was halfway out of his seat when the miracle K appeared on the river to give him an unlikely double through Coleman, who was left speechless.

Mohamed Aissaoui: AJ All in
Angelo Marrone: A7

Aissaoui was in great shape to double up. The 103Q flop kept Aissaoui in front with ace-jack. However, the 7 turn moved Marrone into the lead with a pair of sevens. But Aissaoui did have a lot of outs to stay alive. The 5 wasn't one of them and Aissaoui was sent to the showers.
