No Joy yet for Thomas Zurek

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Thomas Zurek flopped top pair and turned two pair with {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} on {A-}{4-}{2-}{Q-} to get his stack in. Unfortunately, Martin Korman had pocket fours and Werner Eduard Zaremba had pocket deuces. The river was a blank and Korman tripled up while Zaremba took the side pot and eliminated Zurek.

Pavel Hybl and Dan Purcel take from Antonio Quarta

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

From under the gun, Antonio Quarta raised to 800 and picked up three callers on the button, small blind and big blind. On the {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{10-Spades} flop, action folded to Pavel Hybl on the button and he bet 1,500. Dirty Harry and Quarta called before then checking down the {2-Spades} turn. After the {5-Spades} 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 {7-Clubs} turn, Purcel and Quarta checked, Hybl bet 2,500 and just Purcel called.

The {Q-Spades} river completed the board and Purcel's bet of 10,500 won the pot, as Hybl folded.

Alexander Mikhalev and Tony Veille Win Pots

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Alexander Mikhalev ended a roller coaster Day 1a on the rail after being a big stack early on and the Russian is back at it again today, sharing a table with Tony Veille and Thomas Zurek also arrived there as well.

Veille was involved in a three-bet hand in a battle small blind versus button and bet the {10-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{9-Hearts} flop for 1,000. The player on the button called and Veille then bet 1,000 on the {6-Spades} turn again. His opponent called and did so again for the same amount on the {7-Diamonds} turn. Veille showed {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} as winning hand.

One hand later, Mikhalev raised to 600 from early position and picked up four callers. After the {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}{10-Hearts} flop, the action checked to him and Mikhalev took down the pot with a continuation bet worth 1,500.

Antonio Quarta Starts Well

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Antonio Quarta is among those players to have already eliminated an opponent. The Italian flopped two pair with {4-Clubs}{3-Spades} to send short stack Rudolf Henry Hein to the rail and soon after had a bet of 4,000 on the {8-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{A-Spades}{4-Diamonds} paid off by Dirty Harry. Quarta showed {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and that won the pot, as Dirty Harry mucked.

Already Eight Seat Open

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

With just over an hour and 15 minutes played on Day 1b, the screens show eight seat open already. Among those early casualties was also Anna Yamshchikova, who had a day to forget and has not reentered yet.

Claudia and Roman Volf in Action

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Claudia and Roman Volf made the trip to Rozvadov from Austria to take advantage of the PokerNews Cup festival and are both taking part on Day 1b. While Roman is up so far, Claudia is somewhat struggling with half the starting stack.

She faced a raise to 600 by the hijack and the cutoff and Jimmy in the small blind called, as did Volf in the big blind. The flop came {9-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and the action checked to the initial raiser, who bet 1,300. Jimmy and Volf called, then all three checked the {A-Diamonds} turn. After the {3-Hearts} river, Jimmy bet 2,200 and that won the pot uncontested.

Is it Really Izzitreallyd Again?

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

Izzitreallyd was barely done stacking his chips when the dealer announced a second seat open, and once again on his table. A wide grin on the face, Izzitreallyd then said "I flopped a flush and he had a set, it went in after the turn." That brings up his stack to almost three times the initial amount with less than an hour played.
