Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
Vanessa Selbst
Vanessa Selbst

In the first significant pot between Vanessa Selbst and Davidi Kitai it was Selbst who opened on the button for 65,000 and Kitai called from the small blind.

The flop was {7-Spades}{j-Spades}{k-Spades} and when Kitai checked Selbst bet 67,000 to see Kitai make the call.

The turn card was the {8-Clubs} which was checked around and the river card came the {q-Diamonds}. Kitai led out for 48,000.

Selbst took some time to come to a decision and raised to 240,000. It was Kitai’s turn to take his time as he tried to work out what was going on. Several minutes passed before Kitai again checked his hole cards.

"There’s no way you’re bluffing. I should raise but it’s too late now. Will you show if I fold?” Kitai said eventually before another player called the clock. Kitai folded with ten seconds left on the clock.

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
Balazs Botond
Balazs Botond

The 2014 Eureka Prague Main Event champion Balazs Botond three-bet out of the big blind against the raise of Jakub Slemr from under the gun and then called all in for 1.2 million in chips after Slemr had moved all in via four-bet shove.

Slemr: {J-Spades} {J-Clubs}
Botond: {K-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}

The {10-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {9-Spades} flop was good for the Hungarian and the {8-Hearts} turn now gave Slemr some further outs for a straight. The dealer then burned and turned the {J-Hearts} and that gave Slemr a full house, sending Botond to the rail in 19th place for €37,650.
