Christian Zetzsche

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

Ahmad Leila defended the big blind and got his short stack of just 10,500 in after the 10♥6♠5♥ flop. Bo Liu looked him up with the 10♣10♠ in the cutoff and Leila revealed 8♣7♥ for the open-ender.

Leila got there with the 4♠ turn and held for the double on the A♦ river. However, soon after, the seat of Leila was open and he will have to enter one of the three last flights to try again.

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

The under-the-gun player raised to 3,000, the cutoff called, as did Romain Guibas on the button. The small blind called and so did Pablo Brito Silva in the big blind.

The action checked to Guibas, who bet out 5,000 on the Q♥A♥9♥ flop. The small blind folded and Brito Silva raised to 12,000. The remaining players folded and Guibas made the call.

The 9♠ turn checked through to the J♥ on the river. Both players checked to a showdown. Brito Silva tabled 10♥9♦ for turned trips that materialized into a flush — good enough to win this pot.

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

Frederic Normand opened 3,000 in the hijack and [Removed:511] defended the big blind.

The dealer spread a flop of A♣7♣6♦ and Zarbo check-called a bet of 3,000.

The 7♥ paired the board on the turn and Zarbo took the lead with a bet of 6,500.

The 2♥ completed the board and Zarbo dropped a stack across the line for a bet of 40,000, putting Normand in the tank. As he held his head in frustration, he said, "You didn't let me triple barrel," and dropped his last 20,500 into the center.

Zarbo rolled his busted straight draw over, showing 9♥8♠, and Normand took down the pot with A♦J♦.

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

On a completed board of K♥J♣5♦3♥8♣, with about 35,000 in the middle, Wouter Beltz was faced with an all-in bet of 33,000 from Gaspare Sposato.

After tanking for a short while, he made the call and saw the good news as Sposato tabled Q♦10♣, missing his open-ended straight draw. Beltz quickly rolled over his K♦9♦ for top pair as he said, "It's never easy."
