Anatoly Filatov
Anatoly Filatov

The player in mid-position raised to 4,000 and the player in the small blind called. Anatoly Filatov three-bet to 16,000 from the big blind and only the initial raiser called.

The flop came {j-Spades}{9-Spades}{a-Clubs}, Filatov continued with a bet of 11,000 which his opponent called.

They both checked through the {4-Spades} on the turn to the {7-Diamonds} on the river. Filatov now shoved and his opponent asked for a count. The dealer confirmed Filatov had 36,200 behind and the initial raiser opted to fold after checking his cards and his own stack a few times.

Oghabian Wins From Shegay

Level 6 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Milad Oghabian limped in from the cutoff and Viktor Shegay raised to 6,800 from the small blind. Aleksandr Denisov called in the big blind and so did Oghabian.

The flop came {5-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{5-Spades}, Shegay continued with a bet of 20,500 which only Oghabian called.

The turn was the {q-Clubs}, Shegay barreled another bet over the line, now for 30,200 which Oghabian called again.

The {j-Diamonds} completed the board on the river and Shegay put in an orange chip worth 25,000 for the bet and Oghabian calmly made the call for the last time. Shegay tabled {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades} for the rivered two pair of jacks and fives but those couldn't beat the {q-Spades}{9-Spades} of Oghabian who had flopped two pair but improved to the higher two pair on the turn.

The player in the hijack raised to 3,200 and Vlad Darie three-bet to 12,800 from the small blind. Liviu Ignat folded his big blind and the initial raiser made the call.

The flop came {a-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}, Darie continued with a bet of 9,000 and his opponent raised to 25,200. Darie took a few seconds and then called.

They both checked through the {2-Clubs} on the turn and the {2-Diamonds} on the river for Darie to pick up the pot with {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} for the higher two pair than there already was on the board.
