Chilaud Gets Two Streets From Ramos

Richard Hayes

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Maxime Chilaud opened to 2,500 from early position and was called by Tiago Ramos on the button and Thomas Gubler in the big blind.

On the 7♣5♥10♠ flop Chilaud continued with a bet of 3,500, which only Ramos called.

Chilaud continued to fire on the Q♣ turn, putting out a bet of 5,500 and Ramos again called.

On the 8♦ river, Chilaud pondered his options for a moment before reaching for his chips and sliding out a bet of 18,300, leaving himself a single 500 chip behind.

Ramos thought about it for a brief period of time, but folded.

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Niclas Thumm raised to 2,500 and was called by Iulian-Remus Blebea, Daniele Todeschini on the button and Marco Silva in the big blind.

Action on the K♥3♦10♣ flop was checked to Blebea, who put out a bet of 2,200. Todeschini and Silva called, Thumm folded.

The turn was the 10♥, pairing the board, and action was checked to Todeschini on the button. He slid out a bet of 7,500, and that was sufficient to get folds from all of his opponents.
