Ben Hershkovich kicked off the hand with a raise to 1,000 from under the gun, drawing a call from Conor Odriscoll in early position. When the action reached Itamar Nachshon, he seized the opportunity to apply pressure with a three-bet to 4,000. Only Odriscoll stuck around to see the flop.
The dealer spread 3♦Q♥7♦, and Odriscoll checked to Nachshon, who confidently continued with a bet of 5,000. After some thought, Odriscoll made the call.
The turn brought the 2♥, and Odriscoll again deferred with a check. Nachshon took his time, deliberating before sliding out a bet of 9,400. The sizing proved too much for Odriscoll, who folded, allowing Nachshon to scoop the pot with steady aggression.

With a pot of around 15,000 already in the middle and a flop of 3♠5♦K♠ on the felt, Piotr Sztenkiel led out with a bet of 6,200 from early position. Ovidiu Chirieac, seated in middle position, made the call after a moment of deliberation.
The 7♠ appeared on the turn, and Sztenkiel opted to check, ceding the initiative to Chirieac. After carefully observing his opponent, Chirieac fired a bet of 6,500, putting the pressure back on Sztenkiel. Without much delay, Sztenkiel decided to fold, allowing Chirieac to scoop the pot and further boost his growing stack.

Andrew Dickinson opened the action with a raise to 500 from early position, only to face a three-bet to 1,500 from Gal Bar in middle position. Andrey Andreev, sitting in the hijack, cold-called, but Dickinson wasn’t backing down, responding with a four-bet to 4,000. Both Bar and Andreev came along to see a flop.
The dealer fanned 3♠8♦7♥, and Dickinson kept up the aggression, firing a 3,000 continuation bet. Neither Bar nor Andreev hesitated, quickly tossing in their chips to call.
The action slowed on the 6♥ turn when Dickinson checked, giving Bar the green light to seize control with a bet of 6,600. Andreev snap-called, but Dickinson decided to fold after some consideration.
The K♣ completed the board, and Bar showed no signs of stopping, leading out with another bet of 6,000. Andreev, visibly frustrated with the situation, tanked briefly before tossing his hand into the muck, leaving Bar to take in a decent pot.
