Level 1 : 100/100, 0 ante

The dealer then continued dealing, once she was done, Carlos Kienhuis called in the cutoff and so did Mor Lybovich and Peter Da in the blinds.

They all checked through the flop to the on the turn. Lybovich bet 6000 and Da was the only one to make the call.

The river completed the board with the , Lybovich continued with a bet of 1,600 and that was enough to pick up the pot.
