Huberman Hauls Four-Bet Pot

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Fabiano Cappelli opened to 3,500 in the hijack, and Joan Moragues three-bet to 12,000 on the button. Big blind Alon Huberman then upped the ante to 22,500, folding out Cappelli.

Moragues was interested in a flop and called, and did so too when Huberman continued for 10,000 on the QK6 flop. Huberman doubled his bet to 20,000 on the 8 turn, seeing Moragues call for a second time.

Huberman then moved all in for roughly 60,000 on the 7 river. This move won him the pot, as Moragues let go of his cards to give up on the pot.

O'Driscoll Wins with Little Resistance

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Henry Strasser opened to 3,000 in middle position, which faced immediate resistance as one seat to his left, Conor O'Driscoll, three-bet to 9,000. The action folded back to Strasser, who called.

The dealer spread a 10109 flop, and a continuation bet of 6,000 was enough to claim the pot for O'Driscoll, as Strasser returned his cards to the dealer.

Wang Scoops in Another

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Boris Pesic opened to 3,000 from under the gun and faced a three-bet to 9,000 from Yuhan Wang in the cutoff. The action folded back to Pesic, who called.

Both players checked on the connected 1079 flop, and the dealer added the 8 turn to the board.

Pesic took over the betting lead with a bet of 6,000, but Wang took the opportunity to raise, putting 18,000 into the middle.

After a brief moment's thought, Pesic released his cards back to the dealer.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

With around 13,000 in the pot on a heads-up AK10 flop, Jimmy Armougom had made it 15,000 to go, and Nikita Kuznetsov moved all in. Armougom debated for a while before calling off his stack of 105,000, being covered by his opponent.

Jimmy Armougom: A10 All in
Nikita Kuznetsov: AA

The J turn brought Armougom flush outs as well as some opportunities for a chop, but the 8 river bricked off to decide the massive pot in Kuznetsov's favor.

Not much later, Espen Jorstad moved in his last 15,000 or so from the big blind and was called by Oshri Lahmani in the cutoff.

Espen Jorstad: AJ All in
Oshri Lahmani: AK

Jorstad needed to hit a gutshot after the K109 flop, but it was not to be as the 46 runout remained clean for Lahmani.

Defending champion Aleksandr Shevliakov and start-of-day chip leader Paraskevas Tsokaridis were in a blind-on-blind battle. With 13,500 in the pot, they
arrived on the KQ86 turn.

Shevliakov bet 4,000, which Tsokaridis raised to 15,500. Shevliakov then three-bet to 33,000, and Tsokaridis called. Shevliakov checked once the A fell on the river, prompting Tsokaridis to put his opponent all-in for 47,500.

Shevliakov did not take long before mucking his cards, and Tsokaridis soared across the 400,000-mark by winning the pot.

Buttner Oversight Leads to Double Knockout

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Georges Zeina limped in from early position, and when action folded to Vitalijs Korhs on the button, he moved all in for 13,500. Alan Buttner called in the big blind, and Zeina stuck around too.

The dealer spread a 10Q9 flop, which saw Buttner check, and Zeina bet 38,500, leaving just 1,500 behind. Buttner called.

The action checked through on the 9 turn, and the 8 river completed the board.

Buttner moved all in, covering the 1,500 in Zeina's stack, who called.

Korhs flipped over A4, and Zeina flipped over two pair with KQ. However, neither player could beat the straight of Buttner, who revealed his J6.

Buttner let the table know that he hadn't seen Zeina limp in and thought he was closing the action when he called the all-in preflop.
