MPF - Tournament Room 3

Dziugas Petraitis opened to 16,000 from the button, and received a call from Carlo Solazzo in the small blind, before Mats Nordberg three-bet jammed for 67,000 from the big blind.

Both of his opponents called, and proceeded to check down the KJ3Q6 runout.

Nordberg tabled AQ for second pair queens, and that was good versus Solazzo's 99 and Petraitis' A4.

Vahman Vanquishes Two

Level 10 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Chen Keren moved all in for 67,000 from middle position, before Daxwaz Acar rejammed for around 120,000 from the button. Both players were dismayed when Mehran Vahman snap-called in the big blind.

Chen Keren: 88 All in
Daxwaz Acar: JJ All in
Mehran Vahman: AK

Acar will have been happy enough with the scenario, but the K107 flop put Vahman in front, a lead he did not relinquish on the 3 turn or 5 river.

Fabio Giamberardini: A8 All in
Emma Woolfrey: JJ

Giamberardini was in trouble with a solitary overcard, and he found insufficient help on the 109862 runout.
