Hands #86 - 90: Montury Finds Another Big Pocket Pair

Level 32 : 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante

Hand #86: Dominik Panka raised to 325,000 off the button with {k-Spades}{9-Hearts} and Valentin Messina defended his big blind with {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}. The flop came down {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{8-Spades} offering both players something. Panka continued for 400,000 and Messina check-called. The turn was the {5-Hearts} and Messina checked to see Panka fire again, for 800,000. Messina had seen enough and folded. Does Panka know where he is in every spot right now? Hard to argue otherwise.

Hand #87: Messina picked up {j-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} in the small blind and raised to 425,000. Panka folded his big blind.

Hand #88: Panka completed with {9-Diamonds}{7-Spades} and Jean Montury checked his option with {10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. Heads up to a {7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop where Panka bet his top pair to the tune of 175,000. Montury folded.

Hand #89: Montury liked the {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs} he picked up in the small blind enough to complete. Messina looked down at {q-Hearts}{4-Clubs} and raised to 410,000. Montury called to see a {5-Spades}{j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} flop where he checked over to Messina who bet 350,000. Montury folded another flop.

Hand #90: Montury had the button this hand and raised to 335,000 with {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}. Messina picked up {a-Spades}{10-Hearts} in the small blind and three-bet to 860,000. Panka folded from the small blind before Montury four-bet to 2,190,000. Messina put his hands over his mouth as he thought about his move and made the right move in folding.

Hand #91: Action folded to Panka in the small blind where he completed with {2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. Montury checked with {k-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and a {7-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} flop was delivered. The action was checked to the {4-Clubs} turn where they did the same again. The river came as the {8-Clubs} and Montury bet 250,000. Panka took off his shades, had a little think, called, nodded and mucked his hand.
