Mario Penz Takes One
Level 2
: 200/400, 400 ante
In the previous level, a hand was played on Table #26, the player in early position raised to 700 and was called by the player in mid-position. Mario Penz, sitting in late position, decided to three-bet to 2,600. The player in the big blind called, and so did the other two players that were still in the hand.
The flop came 
, the first three players to act all checked but Penz opened to 5,000. The big blind folded, the player in early position called and the player on Penz' right folded.
They both checked through the 
on the turn. The river completed the board with the 
, Penz opponent decided to bet 15,100. Penz didn't take much time to think, he counted out the chips and then called. His opponent showed 
for the missed flush draw on the flop and the missed straight gutshot on the turn. Penz had him bested with 
and took the pot.

The player in early position raised to 1,200 and he was called by Jonathan Brunnbauer, in mid-position, and the players in the blinds.

The turn brought them the 
, Brunnbauer's opponents check-folded to his 10,100 bet so he could take the pot.
