Two Posts for Marques

Level 6 : 250/500, 75 ante

Tony Da Silva Marques scoops two pots in a row to build his stack.

In the first hand he defended his big blind against Clyde Terlaan and checked the {K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{8-Clubs} turn. Terlaan bet 5,000 and Marques called. On the {2-Clubs} river, Marques bet 13,000 and Terlaan called to muck once his opponent flashed {9-Spades}{2-Diamonds} for a full house.

One hand later, Marques checked in the small blind, as did the big blind, with the flop showing {K-Hearts}{7-Spades}{4-Spades}. Zarathustra in the cutoff bet 1,600 and Marques called, the big blind folded. The {Q-Diamonds} appeared on the turn and Marques check-called a bet worth 3,200 before doing so again for 4,400 on the {10-Diamonds} river.

Zarathustra showed {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a bluff and Marques claimed the second pot in a row with {K-Spades}{9-Spades}.

Voth Shows a Bluff

Level 6 : 250/500, 75 ante

On the heads-up turn of {10-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Spades}{8-Hearts}, the small blind checked and Ronny Voth bet 5,100 from under the gun into a pot of around 9,000. The small blind called and checked again the {A-Spades} river. Voth now fired 7,200 and his opponent eventually folded to get shown {7-Spades}{3-Hearts} for a successful bluff.

Zarathustra Doubles with the "Nuts"

Level 6 : 250/500, 75 ante

A player in under the gun opened to 1,100 and Zarathustra three-bet small. Clyde Terlaan called in the big blind and the under-the-gun player then reraised to 5,600. Zarathustra moved all in and Terlaan moved out of the way. The initial raiser quickly called and showed {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}.

"No, I have the nuts!" Zarathustra grinned and flipped over the {9-Spades}{8-Spades}. Sure enough the flop fell {J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} to give him a straight and he held up on {K-Spades} turn and {5-Clubs} river.

Hanna Busts Lipauka

Level 6 : 250/500, 75 ante

Scott Hanna raised to 1,200 and Adašiünas Laimutis called before Vadzim Lipauka three-bet to 5,800. Hanna then shoved all in and Laimutis folded, while Lipauka called all in with the {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}. Hanna was trailing with the {A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} but the flop of {Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} was bad news for Lipauka already.

Sure enough, the {K-Diamonds} turn and {10-Diamonds} river completed the board and gave Hanna a flush to scoop the pot and bust an opponent.

Level 6 : 250/500, 75 ante

Trojnara: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Kilic: {J-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

Terlaan Takes from Chun

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

Clyde Terlaan was the initial raiser and also bet the heads-up flop of {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} with Quincy Chun coming along. On the {5-Spades} turn, Terlaan checked and Chun bet 4,000 in the cutoff, Terlaan called.

After the {A-Diamonds} river, Terlaan took the lead again with a bet worth 12,000 and Chun eventually called after some consideration. Terlaan rolled over {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for trips aces and that won the pot.

Trojnara Doubles Again

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

On the brink of elimination with a short stack not long ago, Jakub Trojnara has since been able to increase his stack after the double against Serok Kilic. And he proceeded to double up again, this time against table neighbor Slobodan Mihaljovič.

The action started with a raise to 1,500 by a player in late position and Lukasz Kubicki called in the cutoff. Mihaljovič three-bet to 4,300 in the small blind and Trojnara four-bet to just over 9,000 in the big blind. The initial raiser and Kubicki quickly folded, while Mihaljovič moved all in and Trojnara snap-called.

Mihaljovič: {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}
Trojnara: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}

The board ran out {J-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts} and the aces held up to see Trojnara double once again.

Second Bullet for Langrock

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

After falling back to just over 10,000 chips for the second time, Sebastian Langrock this time had been unable to run up his stack and was sent to the rail from table 10. It didn't take long for him to reappear though, thanks to the reentry option, and he purchased a second bullet to get a fresh full stack.

The field of Day 1a is now up to 144 entries, almost 50 more than the previous first flight of the PokerNews Cup here in Rozvadov.
