Nagy Three-Bet Shoves the Flop

Kai Cocklin

Level 10 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Robert Cowen opened to 100,000 from the cutoff and Gergo Nagy called from the big blind.

On the flop of 8♦10♥8♠, both checked to the 3♦ turn, where Nagy bet 80,000. Cowen then raised to 305,000, which sent Nagy into the tank, After a while, he moved all in for 815,000, and it was Cowen' turn to burn through some time banks.

After using three time banks, Cowen did eventually relent, which earned Nagy the pot.

Artur Martirosian hopped back in during the break and made it 140,000 from under the gun. Only Andriy Lyubovetskiy called from the big blind.

The flop came 4♣7♣7♠ and a continuation-bet from Martirosian of 100,000 got the job done as Lyubovetskiy check-folded.

Ben Lamb and Joni Jouhkimainen also joined during the break and have fresh stacks of 1,000,000.

Sean Rafael limped in from the button and Sergei Nesterenko completed from the small blind. Gergo Nagy was in the big blind and potted it to 160,000, which got Rafael to fold, but Nesterenko called.

Both checked the 4♣7♣7♠ flop to the 6♠ turn, where Nesterenko led for 225,000. Nagy had a tough decision and burned through two time banks before he eventually let it slide, leaving him with around 1,000,000.

Level 9 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

It's looking pretty deserted over at the invitee tables as there are only 7 players still in.

"Gargamel" just hit the rail, as did Rehman Kassam not long ago. Mikalai Vaskaboinikau has lost a bit of his fortune and his chip lead has been eaten into by "Dubai Police", who has around 8,500,000!
