Leetz Flops the World

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Fouad Rabahie and Brandon Leetz were heads up to the 910J flop with around 5,000 chips already in the middle.

Leetz checked from the big blind before Rabahie fired 2,600 from under the gun. Leetz called to the 9 turn, where both players checked.

Another round of checks followed the J river, with Leetz turning over KQ for a flopped straight. "What a beautiful flop" said Rabahie, as he slid his cards to the dealer.

Mizrahi Folds Full House

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Dan Laidlaw made a bet of 1,800 out of the big blind on a board that read JAJ6. Thierry Mizrahi then called under the gun before Bernard Darmon made it 4,000 to go from middle position.

Both of his opponents called and the 5 river completed the board. It was checked to Darmon, who fired another 11,200 into the pot. Laidlaw then jammed all in, covering both other players.

Mizrahi tanked a bit before folding, while Darmon immediately slammed in a call. Laidlaw turned over AJ and Darmon showed AJ as both played the same full house.

They split the pot while Mizrahi claimed he folded pocket sixes for a lower full house.

Rabahie Crosses Six Figures

Fouad Rabahie
Fouad Rabahie

Michael Kramer, under the gun, got his stack of little more than 30,000 chips in the middle on a flop of 656 against Fouad Rabahie in the big blind.

Michael Kramer: AA
Fouad Rabahie: 106

Kramer's aces were no match against the flopped trips of Rabahie, who won yet another pot when the board ran out 97.

Kramer sighed as he went to the exit, while Rabahie thanked the dealer for his good fortunes.

Schulz Pulls on Beresford's Udders

Conor Beresford
Conor Beresford

Robert Schulz opened to 800 from early position and was called by Conor Beresford from middle position. Fabrice Bigot three-bet to 2,800 from the button and saw both players call.

The 963 flop checked through to the 8 turn. Schulz led out for 3,000, and only Beresford called.

Schulz fired out another 5,000 on the 2 river, and after some brief deliberation, Beresford called.

Schulz tabled 66 for a set of sixes.

"Absolutely milked," chuffed Beresford as he mucked his cards. "I thought you'd have been greedier."

However, a few moments later, Beresford was seen leaving his seat as his stack was collected by a player at his table.

Hallay Faces Over-Bet

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Axel Hallay and Bernard Darmon were heads up on a completed board of 5Q776. Hallay checked out of the small blind to Darmon in the cutoff.

Darmon then fired 10,200 into a pot of 9,500. This sent Hallay into a short tank, but he ultimately decided to fold his hand and grant the pot to Darmon.
