Radkov Doubles With Bullets

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Under-the-gun had made it 1,600 preflop and next to act called. The middle position player Ivan Radkov then jammed all in for 15,100 and the next player to act in the hijack called all in for 10,100 chips.

Action folded back to the player to Radkov's right and he said ''I have the nuts'' and called.

Hijack: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Ivan Radkov: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Early Position: {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}

Radkov had aces and managed to hold up versus both other hands on the {9-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} run out, eliminating the hijack and getting a full double on top of those chips.

Ercan Hasan
Ercan Hasan

On the turn board of {q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}, Ercan Hasan bet 8,000 from middle position and was called by Rusen Mat on the button.

The {5-Diamonds} river allowed Hasan to continue the aggression with a bet of 12,000. After only a few seconds Mat announced all in for 56,200. Hasan asked, "Have you got quads?"

Mat remained stoic and after counting their stack and after a brief ponder, Hasan decided to fold.

Darvishi Keeps Up The Pressure

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

After a raise from the hijack of Bora Kurtulus to 1,300, the button of Saeid Darvishi called and so did the big blind.

Three ways to a flop of {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}{q-Hearts} and Darvishi bet 3,000 when checked to. Just the big blind called, Kurtulus got out of the way.

Again on the turn, Darvishi bet 3,000 and the big blind called once again, slamming the calling chips into the pot when a {6-Hearts} came in.

On the river {3-Clubs} , the big blind let it go after Darvishi bet 6,000.

Lykov Gets Much Needed Double Up

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

With 21,000 in the middle on a flop of {10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, Maxim Lykov in the hijack moved all in for 17,100. The cutoff made the ball and the big blind got out of the way.

Maxim Lykov: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Cutoff: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The cutoff was ahead with cowboys, but Lykov drilled the nut flush when the {6-Clubs} hit the turn. The inconsequential {3-Spades} completed the board and Lykov moved above starting stack.

With 26,100 in the middle on the turn board of {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, Dominique Gabriel bet 13,000 from the cutoff and was called by Murat Altunok in the hijack.

The {j-Diamonds} prompted Altunok to bet 5,600 which was called by Gabriel. Altunok turned over {j-Clubs}{j-Spades} for a rivered full house of jacks full of threes. Gabriel tapped the felt and threw their cards into the muck giving the pot to the Turk.

Panteli Jams It In On The River

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

The hijack was heads-up against Andreas Panteli in the cutoff, where Panteli was facing a hefty 21,000 chip bet on the river. The pot was already around 30,000 and Panteli had around 42,000 chips behind.

He was already in the time bank when PokerNews arrived on the scene and he took about half a minute to move his chips into the middle.

His opponent didn't waste more than 15 seconds on deciding to muck his holding, awarding the pot to the man from Greece.
