Savenkov Doubles Niste Up

Level 3 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Mihai Niste
Mihai Niste

Aleksey Savenkov raised from the small blind to 3,500 and Mihai Niste three-bet to 10,000 in the big blind which Savenkov called.

The flop came {j-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} on which they both checked to see the {6-Spades} land on the turn. Savenkov bet 16,000 and Niste called.

The {5-Spades} on the river completed the board on which Savenkov checked. Niste now shoved for around 64,000 and Savenkov called with {10-Spades}{9-Spades} for a flush but Niste had the better hand with the {a-Spades}{q-Spades} for the nut-flush.

After doubling Niste up, Savenkov was left with 5,000 which the former professional football player lost shortly after.

Pyzara Has Sixes

Level 2 : 400/800, 800 ante

Ionut Voinea raised to 2,000 from mid-position and was called by Kacper Pyzara and Aleksandr Merzhvinskiy in the blinds.

They all checked through the {3-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} on the flop to the {8-Clubs} on the turn. Pyzara bet, Merzhvinskiy raised to 8,500 and only Pyzara ended up making the call before they both checked on the {a-Hearts} on the river. Pyzara tabled {6-Spades}{6-Hearts} and that was enough to make Merzhvinskiy muck his hand.
