A Double And More for Zhang

Level 3 : 400/800, 100 ante
Zhang vs judd trump
Zhang vs judd trump

Michael Zhang called a four-bet to 12,035 by "judd trump" in the big blind as the button three-bettor and they headed to the heads-up flop of {6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. "judd trump" bet 12,000 and called the shove of Zhang for little more.

Michael Zhang: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
"judd trump": {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

The {a-Spades} turn left "judd trump" with one out and the {9-Hearts} river brought no miracle upset.

Zhang then fired three barrels against "R_uida lin" on a board of {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades}. "R_uida lin" called it down including a river bet for 8,012 and Zhang's {a-Hearts}{j-Spades} prevailed versus {a-Spades}{3-Clubs}.

Andersson and Malinowski Chip Up

Level 5 : 600/1,200, 150 ante

Adrian Mateos made it 2,500 to go on the button and Joakim Andersson defended the big blind. That led to the {10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop on which Andersson check-called for 3,188. The {7-Spades} turn brought another check-call by Andersson for 15,500 and the {7-Hearts} river was checked.

Mateos flipped over {k-Spades}{j-Spades}, which Andersson had beat with the {10-Spades}{9-Spades}.

At the same time, Wiktor Malinowski won his second pot in a row and that turned out to be a rather large one against David Coleman. In a min-raised pot to the {9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop, Coleman in the big blind check-called 3,763 and the {10-Spades} turn was checked through. On the {3-Clubs} river, Coleman bet 1,300 and Malinowski raised to 8,051. Coleman reraised to 38,000 but Malinowski stuck around with the {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} to drag in the pot against Coleman's {j-Clubs}{8-Hearts}.
