Nurzynski Doubles Through Zavorotnijs

Level 5 : 700/1,400, 1,400 ante
Piotr Nurzynski
Piotr Nurzynski

"Wow, that's a crazy call. Jack and nine on the board and he still calls with sevens," the otherwise rather silent Christopher Kyriacou said after all was done. Piotr Nurzynski had jammed the {j-Spades}{9-Hearts}{2-Spades}{4-Hearts} turn for 51,900 in the cutoff and earned a tank-call from Vitalijs Zavorotnijs in the big blind.

Piotr Nurzynski: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Vitalijs Zavorotnijs: {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}

The {8-Hearts} river was no threat and Nurzynski secured the double up in a battle EPT versus WPT Main Event champion.

Sokol Doubles Through Alahwal

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

On a flop of {j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} the chips went flying between George Alahwal and Kamil Sokol with the former making it 15,000 to go. Sokol then raised to 37,000 and instantly called all-in when Alahwal pushed.

Kamil Sokol: {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
George Alahwal: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}

The {10-Spades} turn and {7-Hearts} river runout brought no help for the aces with the nut flush draw and Sokol doubled for 78,300.

Bedir Takes From Cimbolas

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

Matas Cimbolas three-bet to 8,500 only for Selahaddin Bedir to then four-bet to 21,500, which Cimbolas reluctantly called. The flop brought {k-Spades}{q-Spades}{9-Hearts} and Bedir made it 12,900 to go. Cimbolas gave it some consideration and elected to fold.

Bedir has chipped up but remains third in chips on the table behind Zoja Fleischer and Erdal Gulseven.

Saad Takes From Dybeck in Minor Pot

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

Saad now min-raised to 9,000 and received a short stare down by Dybeck before collecting the pot without resistance.
