Levin Calls All In For The Chop

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

On a board of {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{3-Clubs} with 35,000 in the pot, Alex Goulder on the button had called a bet from Dmitriy Levin in the big blind.

The {9-Clubs} turn card was checked by both players.

A {k-Clubs} completed the board and Levin checked to Goulder who moved all in, covering the Russian.

Levin went deep into the tank, thinking for several minutes. Ultimately, he called off, having a slightly shorter stack than Goulder.

The Brit pointed at the point to let Levin know he was playing the board, turning over {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. Levin turned over {q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} to chop the pot.

With 26,000 in the middle on a flop of {j-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}, Erdal Gulseven bet 8,000 from middle position and was called by Natalya Nikitina on the button.

Gulseven continued for 13,000 on the {5-Clubs} turn and once again Nikitina made the call. Both players checked the {9-Diamonds} river. Gulselven turned over {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for king-high, while Nikitina had {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs} for a pair of sixes.

Gulseven muttered in Turkish, while Nikitina stacked the pot.

Rheem On A Busting Spree

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Chino Rheem
Chino Rheem

With 33,000 in the middle on a flop of {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{4-Spades}, Chino Rheem bet 15,000 from the hijack and was called by Panayiotis Vassiliou who was under the gun.

The {5-Spades} fell on the turn and Rheem fired a bet of 30,000. Vassiliou went deep into the tank for over two minutes before moving all of their chips across the betting line for 93,000. Rheem immediately called.

Panayiotis Vassiliou: {j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Chino Rheem: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Vassiliou had an open-ended straight draw, while Rheem had second nuts with a set of queens. Vassiliou did not the river as the {3-Clubs} completed the board to send the Cypriot to the rail and Rheem claims another victim and huge pot.

Deak Doubles To Survive, Leaves Gillion On The Brink

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Colin Gillion moved all in from the hijack and the cutoff of Ferenc Deak called all in. Everyone else let their hands go and it was not looking good for Gillion.

Ferenc Deak: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Colin Gillion: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}

Gillion needed help, but the board ran out {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades}{k-Hearts} to leave him with just 6,000 in chips. The Hungarian, Deak, finds himself close to an average chip stack with that hold.

Rheem Takes Out Chami

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Khalil Chami moved all in from early position for 33,000 from early position and was called by Chino Rheem in the big blind.

Khalil Chami: {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}
Chino Rheem: {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}

Chami gave a Gallic shrug indicating he was not happy that Cheem called. The flop of {k-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades} gave Rheem a set of fives, but Chami picked up a gutshot wheel draw. There was no help for Chami in future streets as the {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts} completed the board to improve Rheem to a boat and Khalil wished the table "bonne chance".
