Patrick Cole

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Sebastien Compte opened to 1,200 from under the gun. Thierry Gogniat called in middle position and Vahe Ter-Khachatryan defended the big blind.

The 9♣2♣7♦ flop was checked around, as was the A♣ turn. Ter-Khachatryan then led for 3,000 on the K♠ river. Compte folded and Gogniat called. Ter-Khachatryan tabled A♠7♣ for two pair which bested the one pair K♦J♦ of Gogniat.

Ter-Khachatryan couldn't continue to chip up and busted shortly after.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

A player in middle position opened to 1,500, Christophe Pommier, in the hijack, three-bet to 4,500 and Sylvester Fortuna, in the cutoff, cold-called. Lyudmil Ivanov, in the big blind, four-bet jammed for 19,600. The original raiser folded, as did Pommier. Fortuna called.

Lyudmil Ivanov: A♠K♣ All in
Sylvester Fortuna: 8♣8♠

Fortuna was ahead and the 4♠4♣10♥ flop saw him hold. The Q♦ turn gave Ivanov additional outs to a straight, but the 9♦ river saw him sent to the rail.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Vasileios Tsaknis opened from under the gun to 1,200. Salvatore Camarda called in the hijack before Martin Stausholm moved all in for 22,400. Tsaknis called and Camarda folded.

Martin Stausholm: 10♠10♦ All in
Vasileios Tsaknis: K♦K♥

The 3♣3♠6♥ flop was safe for Tsaknis, and the 6♣ turn double paired the board. Stausholm spiked the 10♥ on the river to make a full house.

Tsaknis then tossed a small figurine of a donkey to Stausholm, saying "yours." Stausholm tossed the figurine back and the table cracked a collective smile.
