Rizov Raises Politio; Braunhofer Busts to Mestre

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Manuel Braunhofer

Laurent Polito open-raised from the cutoff and called button Miroslav Rizov's subsequent three-bet to 65,000. Rizov continued for 45,000 on the 275 flop, seeing his opponent check-call.

The 7 turn then checked through to the Q river, where Polito flicked in a small bet of 25,000. Rizov announced a sizable raise to 225,000, which Polito called after some thought.

Rizov revealed K2 for a flush, and Polito nodded his head in acknowledgement before mucking his cards in defeat.

Just prior, Raul Mestre had eliminated Manuel Braunhofer at another table.
