Baby Flush Does the Job

Level 6 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Anthony Burguiere raised on the button to 2,000, which only Maroun Sily called, defending his big blind.

Action checked through on the monotone 759 flop, before the K turn was added to the board.

Sily checked for a second time, before calling a bet of 3,500 by Burguiere.

The river 8 saw both players check again, with Burguiere showing he had rivered a flush with 33. Sily revealed he had been rivered, flipping over Q9.

Alba Piles on the Pressure

Level 6 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Marko Luksa kicked the action off with a raise to 2,000 from under the gun. Only Pablo Alba made the call, defending his big blind.

Alba check-called a bet of 1,500 on the 5J4 flop, before check-calling again on the 2 turn, this time for 6,000.

When the dealer added the 6 river to the board, Alba switched gears, taking over the betting lead and putting his opponent all in.

Luksa had 16,500 remaining in his stack and a decision to make. After a few moments, he chose to wait for a better spot and returned his cards to the dealer.

Cosic Doubles on Action Table

Level 6 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The action started with a raise to 2,200 from the player in middle position, which gathered calls from Mitja Rudolf, in the hijack, the button and the small blind before Marko Cosic, in the big blind, opted to three-bet to 16,000.

The original raiser folded, but then, rather emphatically, Rudolf pushed all of his chips into the middle. The action folded back to Cosic, who made the call, and was the player at risk.

Marko Cosic: AK All in
Mitja Rudolf: 99

It was a safe flop for Rudolf, coming down 558, but the K turn left him needing help.

The river Q was unforthcoming, seeing Cosic find a full double up, with Rudolf left nursing a short stack.

Cooler Sees Bellinghieri Relinquish Chip Lead

Giuseppe Bellinghieri
Giuseppe Bellinghieri

Following a raise from the player in the hijack to 1,600, Giuseppe Bellinghieri opted to three-bet to 4,200 on the button. Maroun Sily then upped the price of poker, putting in a four-bet to 10,200 from the small blind.

The original raiser moved swiftly out of the way before Bellinghieri put in a five-bet, sliding a stack of chips into the middle, covering his opponent's stack of 61,300. Sily made the call, and the cards were flipped over.

Maroun Sily: AA All in
Giuseppe Bellinghieri: KK

There were no twists in the tale, as the board ran out JA26J, only serving to improve Sily to a full house, providing him a full double up.

Miller Welcomes Goodman to the Table

Level 5 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

A new face to the table, Samuel Goodman raised to 1,800 from middle position. Ben Miller called on the button, and the players behind folded.

The dealer spread a QQ2 flop, and Goodman continued with a bet of 1,400. Miller called again.

Faced with a check from Goodman on the 6 turn, Miller placed a bet of 5,200, which his opponent called.

The 4 river completed the board, and when Miller continued with a bet of 11,200, facing another check, Goodman took some time to consider his options before electing to fold.
