Ionita Fires at Pantazis; Brzezinski Smacks the Flop Against Bel Khayate
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Action folded to Sebastian Ionita who raised to 85,000 in the small blind. Panagiotis Pantazis called in the big blind.
The flop came Q♠4♠2♣ and Ionita bet 65,000. Pantazis called and the 4♣ fell on the turn.
Ionita then bet 185,000 and Pantazis again called. Ionita used a time bank on the K♠ river before firing out 350,000, and Pantazis folded this time.
At another table, Tomasz Brzezinski was all in for his last 525,000 and up against El Mostafa Bel Khayate in a blind versus blind battle.
Tomasz Brzezinski: 10♣10♦ 
El Mostafa Bel Khayate: J♣J♦
Brzezinski was at risk and dominated, but the K♥K♦10♠ flop gave him a full house. The board ran out A♦A♣, and he earned the fortunate double up.
