Pescaru Among the Early Big Stacks

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

Having defended the small blind against a cutoff raise, Andrei-Robert Pescaru bet the {q-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Clubs} turn for 15,000. He was called only by Nuri Hadioglu and checked the {3-Hearts} on the river. Hadioglu checked it back and Pescaru won the pot with the {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs} for the top pair.

Petkov Takes It on the Flop

Level 4 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Ivan Sakharov min-raised in the cutoff and the button three-bet to 7,500. Lachezar Petkov then four-bet to 18,000 in the small blind and Sakharov folded, the button reluctantly called. On a flop of {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{6-Clubs}, Petkov made it 10,500 to go and that won the pot right away.

Aido Crashes Out Against Borlan

Level 4 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Sergio Aido
Sergio Aido

Dan Serban Borlan raised to 3,000 and earned one caller. Sergio Aido then three-bet to 15,000 in the blinds and was called by Borlan only. The {10-Spades}{8-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop saw Aido bet 17,000 and he picked up a call to see the {a-Spades} on the turn. Aido now opted to check and then called a bet worth 22,000.

On the {5-Hearts} river, Aido checked once more and Borlan was in the tank. Another player called the clock on the Romanian but before a floor staff could arrive, Borlan pushed all-in. Aido called for 89,000 with the {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} but Borlan had the best of it with {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} for a set.

Lautwein Takes From Duthie

Level 4 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Four ways to the {a-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop, John Duthie and Balazs Somodi in the blinds opted to check and so did Robert Heidorn. Danielle Lautwein then bet 5,100 and Duthie was the only caller.

No action followed on the {8-Diamonds} turn and {6-Clubs} river. Duthie tabled pocket tens but Lautwein had that beat with the {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}, which caused a chuckle from Duthie.

Oghabian Doubles Through Fabian

Level 4 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
