Michalak Takes It on the River

Frank Visser

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

Nikita Kuznetsov raised to 2,400 under the gun. Jakub Michalak made it 7,300 to go on the button, which Kuznetsov called.

The 10♣3♥5♦ flop was checked by Kuznetsov, after which Michalak bet 4,400. Kuznetsov raised to 11,000, and Michalak called. Kuznetsov sized down to 9,500 on the K♣ turn, seeing another call from his opponent.

The A♠ river halted Kuznetsov's betting as he checked to Michalak. Michalak jammed all in for 19,900, which was enough to let Kuznetsov sigh and fold his hand.

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

Endrit Geci opened the action from early position with a raise to 2,600. Sitting next to him, Javier Zarco responded with a three-bet to 7,000. After sizing up Zarco’s stack, Geci moved all his 5,000 chips into the middle, effectively putting Zarco all in. Zarco made the call, and the cards were on their backs.

Javier Zarco: Q♦Q♠All in
Endrit Geci: K♦K♠

Zarco was looking for some help to stay alive, but the board ran out 10♠6♣9♠7♥A♦, providing no relief. Geci's kings held, and Zarco was sent to the rail.

Action folded to Gerard Carbo in the small blind, who raised to 2,500. Emil Gramatikov produced a three-bet to around 23,000 from the big blind, leaving only around 2,000 behind, and Carbo moved all in, with Emil Gramatikov quickly getting the rest of his chips into the middle.

Emil Gramatikov was ahead and his double-up was confirmed by the Q♦7♦7♠4♥6♠ runout, Gramatikov's ace-high with a pair of sevens sending him the pot.

Wilf Meets Late End as Gadeikis Gathers Monster Stack

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

Darius Gadeikis had raised under the gun and Saar Wilf had called in middle position. Tudor Zapsa then three-bet to 12,500 in the cutoff. Gadeikis called but Wilf jammed all in for 27,200.

Zapsa put in a four-bet to 55,000 to isolate but Gadeikis called undeterredly. The pair went on to check through the J♦8♦3♦ flop and 5♦ turn before Gadeikis bet 35,000 on the 4♦ river.

Zapsa spent some minutes in the tank but ultimately opted to fold. Gadeikis showed down K♦K♣ for the nut flush, besting the 9♥9♦ of Wilf and sending him to the rail with just a few hands left in the night.

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

Alexander Zubov was already all in for his remaining stack from the big blind against Mihai Niste, who had Zubov covered from early position.

Alexander Zubov: Q♣J♣All in
Mihai Niste: K♣K♠

The 10♥8♦K♥ flop kept Zubov drawing live with an open-ended straight draw, but the K♦ turn upgraded Niste to quad kings to leave Zubov drawing dead.

An irrelevant 10♣ completed the board and Niste collected the rest of Zubov's chips.

Nemeth's All-In Forces the Fold

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

PokerNews caught up with the action as the pot stood at around 100,000 with the board reading 3♣J♥6♥5♥. Andras Nemeth was all in for about 67,000, leaving Georgios Tsouloftas with a tough decision to make.

Tsouloftas took his time, visibly weighing his options. After about five minutes, another player called the clock, and the floor staff arrived, giving Tsouloftas 30 seconds to act. As the countdown hit zero, he reluctantly folded, conceding the massive pot.

After the hand, Nemeth claimed he had pocket queens, confident they were good enough, and Tsouloftas gave a slight nod in agreement.

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

Action folded to Endrit Geci on the button, who opened to 1,200, and received calls from Mohamed Hammi and Hannes Jeschka in the blinds.

The A♠7♦2♠ flop was checked through. On the 5♠ turn, Jeschka led out with a bet of 1,200, which only Geci called.

The 5♥ river completed the board, and Jeschka check-folded versus a bet of 2,600 from Geci.
