Bohm Takes on Turn

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Dominik Bohm opened from under the gun. Aren Bezhanyan called from early position. Aziz Efe called on the button and Stephen Kurland defended the big blind.

Kurland led the 235 flop for 10,000. Bohm called, Bezhanyan and Efe folded. Kurland slowed down and checked the 7 turn, which prompted Bohm to fire again but for a smaller sizing of 8,000. Kurland folded his hand.

Gerard Rubiralta: 77 All in
Patrick Leonard: A7

The 5534 runout looked safe for Rubiralta until the dealer produced the A on the river to give Leonard the lead and send Rubiralta to the rail.

Vallinas Wins Three-Bet Pot on Turn

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Ionut-Lucian Colciar raised to 4,500 from late position, the small blind called, then Jon Vallinas made a big reraise to 26,000, which only Colcair called.

The flop came J3Q and Vallinas continued for 20,000, which Colcair called. The turn was the K and Vallinas pushed all in. This proved too much for Colcair, who made the fold to give Vallinas the pot.

Sokol Has a Lucky Escape

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Kamil Sokol moved all in for 14,000 from middle position, Espen Oeye three-bet to 30,000 from the cutoff and Oliver Heidel, in the small blind, moved all in for 98,000. Oeye went deep into the tank, eventually tossing his hand into the muck.

Kamil Sokol: KQ All in
Oliver Heidel: 1010

The board produced the unlikely runout of A444A putting a full house on board and resulting in a chopped pot. Oeye seemed frustrated as he told the table that he'd folded ace-king.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Manuel Carvalho found himself all in and at risk for his effective stack of approximately 20,000 against Stefano Pizzuti, on the button.

Manuel Carvalho: AK All in
Stefano Pizzuti: JJ

The board ran out 9109610; Pizzuti's jacks held as Carvalho couldn't find any of his overcard outs in the five-card runout, sending him to the rail.

Turcan Opts To Fold Instead of Check, Maltez Boats Up

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Baris Kavuk limped in for 1,500 under the gun. Morten Klein called on the button and Emanuel Turcan completed in the small. Fabrice Maltez checked his option.

The 447 flop was checked around before Turcan asked whether he could fold on the 9 turn. The dealer clarified he can still open-fold if he wishes, but gave Turcan the option to check. Ultimately Turcan parted with his hand. Maltez then bet 3,000. Kavuk called; Klein and Turcan folded.

Maltez then barreled again on the 7 river for 8,000. Kavuk called and his Q9 was bested by Maltez's rivered full house with Q7.

Thibaut Triple Barrels and Klein Takes the Gift

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Morten Klein
Morten Klein

Following a middle position open-raise, Moussa Thibaut three-bet to 7,000 from the next seat across, Morten Klein called in late position, and the original raiser folded.

The flop came KJ7 and Thibaut continued for 11,000, which Klein called. The turn was the K and Thibaut made it 22,000 to go, which Klein quickly called again.

The river was the J and Thibaut took a moment before pushing all in for around 50,000-60,000 chips. Klein didn't need any time to think before making the call.

Thibaut stood up instantly as he turned over A5 for a busted flush draw that he'd turned into a bluff. Klein had AK for a full house, kings full of jacks to win the pot. He stared in disbelief as the chips were pushed over to him.

"A gift," said a neutral player.

"What a crazy hand," said Klein as he added to his stack, which he'd built into huge towers of chips that equated to around 300,000.
