Easy Pot for Kolev; Gift for Boquet
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Fredric Gjertsen limped in from early position before Boris Kolev made it 20,000 from the cutoff. Sal Al Fakih called from the big blind and Gjertsen also stuck around.
Kolev contniued for 18,000 on the K♣J♣10♦ flop and folded out his opponents for a small boost before the break.
On a nearby table, Rui Bouquet opened to 12,000 from middle position before Eros Calderone three-bet to 56,000 from the big blind. Bouquet raised to 111,000 leaving 5,000 behind. Calderone jammed as the bigger stack and Bouquet's last chip went into the middle.
Rui Bouquet: 8♣8♦
Eros Calderone: K♦2♣
Calderone picked up two more outs after pairing his deuce on the 10♣7♣2♠ flop, but the bad beat didn't come as the eights held after the 4♠ turn and A♣ river.
