river, Quarta action checked to Hybl and he won the pot uncontested with a bet of 2,000.
One hand later, Hybl raised to 700 from the cutoff and Dan Purcel in the small blind as well as Quarta in the big bling came along. Again it was checked to the Czech and Hybl bet 1,100, both opponents called. On the 
turn, Purcel and Quarta checked, Hybl bet 2,500 and just Purcel called.
