Level 9
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Ryan Mandara raised to 8,000 from the hijack and was three-bet to 32,000 by Miroslav Rizov from the small blind. Mandara burned through a time bank before electing to four-bet to 68,000.
Rizov didn't need long to decide on a five-bet shove. With around 140,000 remaining in his stack, Mandara quickly folded, surrendering the pot to Rizov.
At another table, it was heads-up on the turn with a board of 8♣K♠J♣3♦. Artur Martirosian fired for around 40,000 from the big blind, and Timo Kamphues called from the button.
The 7♦ completed the board, and both players checked. Martirosian tabled Q♦Q♥, which proved good enough to take down the pot as Kamphues mucked his hand.
