Chevalier Lets It Go

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Marian Virlanuta
Marian Virlanuta

With the full board showing K♣4♠8♥5♥3♥ and about 85,000 in the pot, Pierre Chevalier led out for 25,000. Marian Virlanuta responded by moving all in for around 220,000. It was a tough spot for Chevalier, who had about 122,000 left behind.

Chevalier counted his stack and asked Virlanuta if he would show his cards if he folded, but got no reply. After some thought, Chevalier folded. Virlanuta then said, “If you show first, I’ll show.” Chevalier laughed, “If I show and win, it’s too embarrassing.”

Virlanuta turned over 8♣6♠ anyway, while Chevalier mucked his hand. “So you had nothing?” Chevalier asked. “I had a king.”

But the pot was pushed Virlanuta's way, giving him a healthy boost in chips.

Attila Ivacson raised under the gun to 6,000, receiving calls from Domenico De Francesco, one seat to his left, and the player in the big blind.

All three players checked on the 7♣4♠K♣ flop, and the 8♦ turn was added to the board.

Both players then checked the 5♦ river, taking their hands to showdown.

Ivacson flipped over 3♦3♣, which was no good versus the J♦J♥ of De Francesco.

About 23,000 were in the three-way pot on a 4♠8♠9♣ flop. First to act, Sebastian Schulze checked to Daniel Rezaei, who fired a bet of 10,000. Ferdinand Janssen folded, and Schulze responded by moving all in for 24,000. Rezaei made the call, sending the cards to a showdown.

Sebastian Schulze: 7♠6♥All in
Daniel Rezaei: Q♠J♥

Schulze had a straight draw while Rezaei held the lead with overcards. The 6♠ on the turn gave Schulze a pair and a glimmer of hope, but the J♠ on the river sealed it for Rezaei, who made the better pair to send Schulze to the rail.
