Peters Virtually Doubles

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
David Peters
David Peters

Heads-up on a board of {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{6-Clubs}{9-Hearts}, Dario Quatrucci bet 61,000 from under the gun and was called by David Peters in middle position.

The river came the {j-Clubs} and Quatrucci fired out another 138,000. Peters sat motionless for several minutes as he stared at the board before he emerged with a raise to 296,000, leaving himself one 1,000 chip behind.

Now it was Quatrucci's turn to tank, as he took around five minutes before pushing forward a call. Peters turned over {9-Clubs}{9-Spades} for the turned full house. Quatrucci went to muck as the rest of the table pointed out he should be forced to show, but Peters said he wasn't actually all in and Quatrucci's cards went unseen into the middle.

Garbi Rivers Lovgren

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Action was picked up on the turn on a board that read {k-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{8-Spades}{9-Spades}. The pot had about 58,000 in it and Ravid Garbi bet 50,000 into it from the button. Sofia Lovgren called in the big blind after she thought for about 30 seconds.

The river came the {10-Hearts}. Action went check-check. Neither player was very eager to show until Lundgren announced eight which Garbi had beat with the {10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} to win the pot against the {8-}{6-} of Lovgren who gave a frown at the unfortunate river card.

Bogdanov Smashes the Board to Bust Isaak

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

On the first hand back from dinner, Wilhelm Isaak moved all in from under the gun for his last 50,000 and was called by Yulian Bogdanov on the button.

Wilhelm Isaak: {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
Yulian Bogdanov: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} flop gave Bogdanov more outs to a flush and a straight, and he completed the straight with the {10-Spades} turn. The {3-Diamonds} on the river gave him a flush and Isaak wished the table luck before making his exit.

Golenko Gets a Bluff Through Two

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Three players were at the river as the board read {a-Hearts}{8-Spades}{3-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}. From the button, Yevgeniy Golenko bet 25,000 into a pot that was about 85,000.

Anatoly Nikitin folded from the big blind after thinking for a bit and Gabi Livshitz was under the gun and folded also.

Golenko showed the {7-Spades}{6-Spades} for nothing. He breathed a sigh of relief out loud as he collected some much needed chips to his stack.
