Level 2 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Nick Petrangelo opened to 4,500 on the button and Teun Mulder three-bet the small blind to 20,000. Petrangelo called.

Both checked the 8♣10♦5♦ flop to the 7♦ turn, where Muldur checked and then folded when Petrangelo bet 17,000.

Petrangelo was involved in the very next hand as Kayhan Mokri opened from early position to 4,000. Petrangelo called in the cutoff, Sameh Elamawy called from the small blind, and Klemens Roiter called in the big blind.

The flop came 8♥K♠7♥, which checked to Petrangelo, who bet 5,000. Only Roiter and Mokri called to the 7♠ turn, where they all checked.

When the 6♣ hit the river, the action heated up as Roiter led for 10,000 and Mokri made it 45,000. Petrangelo used a time bank before he cold-called, and Roiter eventually let his cards go.

Mokri then tabled a straight with 5♠4♠, but Petrangelo had that beat as he held 10♥9♥ for a bigger straight.

Kai Cocklin

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

Jean-Noel Thorel hasn't been seated for long, but didn't take too much time before he got involved in a couple of hands.

First, Tom Fuchs raised the cutoff to 2,500 and Thorel called in the small blind. Tamas Adamszki, who just sat down, called in the big blind.

The flop came 4♦3♣3♥, which checked around to Fuchs, who bet 3,000. Thorel called and Adamszki folded. A 6♣ hit the turn where Thorel check-called a bet of 15,000 from Fuchs.

When the 5♣ landed on the river, Thorel led for 15,000. and that got Fuchs to fold.

Two hands later, Seth Davies raised from early position and Thorel three-bet the cutoff to 9,000. Davies called.

On the 10♥8♠J♦ flop, Davies check-called a bet of 15,000 from Thorel to the 7♠ turn, where again Davies checked. Thorel didn't slow down and fired 35,000, which earned him the pot as Davies let it go.
