Grodum Grows His Stack

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante

Shaun Decesare raised to 1,600 from the middle position and was called by Jostein Grodum in the hijack and Stefan Manara in the big blind.

The flop came {4-Spades}{7-Clubs}{3-Hearts}, Manara checked, Decesare continued with a bet of 2,100 which only Grodum called.

The turn was the {8-Spades}, Decesare fired a bet of 6,300 into the pot which was called again.

The river completed the board with the {7-Diamonds} and both players checked.

"Ace-high," Decesare announced.

Grodum quickly tabled {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for the turned pair of eights to claim the pot.

Stefanos Troumouchis

Alan Ball limped in from the hijack and so did Tracy Taylor in the cutoff. Stefanos Troumouchis raised to 1,200 from the button. Action folded back to Ball who made the call and so did Taylor.

The flop came {8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}, Ball check-folded to the 2,000 bet of Taylor which Troumouchis did call.

The turn was the {a-Spades}, Taylor now checked and Troumouchis fired a bet of 3,500 over the line. Taylor contemplated her options but opted to fold in the end.
