with around 6,000 in the middle.
Julia Tsyrkin checked from the small blind, with Joachim Huth betting 3,500, and Lubomir Balaz making the call. Tsyrkin then applied the pressure with a check-raise to 10,000, forcing Huth to make what looked like an agonising decision. After a sip of his drink and a look to the heavens, Huth eventually folded his hand, before Balaz instantly cranked it up to 35,000.
A look of confusion spread across Tsyrkin's face before she eventually folded as well, with Balaz dragging in an almost 30,000-chip pot right before the break.
