Gin Turn Card for Bartha

Tyler Foran

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

Two players had brewed a pot of about 60,000 as the Q♠J♠3♣ flop lay on the felt. Liviu Bartha was first to act and went into the tank for about two minutes before a fellow tablemate called the clock. As the floor came to the table, Bartha checked, and Raul van Boxtel bet 13,000. Bartha took 30 seconds and made the call.

The 10♥ fell on the turn, and Bartha led out for 20,000. Boxtel jammed for about 41,000 and Bartha snap-called.

Raul van Boxtel: K♠K♣
Liviu Bartha: A♥K♦

It was the perfect turn card for Bartha as he turned Broadway, and Boxtel couldn't find one of the remaining aces to chop as the 2♥ hit the river.

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

The pot stood at 29,000 with two players looking at a flop of 10♠J♣2♦.

Omar Del Pino, in early position, checked the action to Adrian State, who was sitting to his direct left. State bet out 12,000 and Del Pino called.

The 9♥ turn checked through to the 10♥ river. Del Pino placed a very small bet of 5,500 and State went deep into the tank. Despite the size of the bet, it was enough to see State's cards into the muck.

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."

The pot stood at 68,000 with two players looking at a full board that read 5♥6♠2♠5♣9♦.

Shimizu Nozomu, in the big blind, bet out 75,000, over-betting the size of the pot.

Ali Bayrak, in the hijack, thought for a considerable amount of time before mucking A♠4♠ face up, showing he was contemplating his decision with just ace high.

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♦.
