Hartmann Timebank Folds the River

Level 2 : 100/200, 25 ante

After a raise from Vladimir Troyanovskiy and a call from Oleksandr Leonovych on the button, Pascal Hartmann three-bet to 2,750 from the small blind and received two calls. The flop came down {Q-Spades}{10-Spades}{2-Clubs} and everyone checked.

The {10-Clubs} on the turn got checked to Leonovych, who bet 4,000. Hartmann called, while Troyanovksiy folded. On the {5-Spades} river, Hartmann checked, and Leonovych bet 11,000. Hartmann needed one of his time bank chips to come to a decision, then folded his hand.

Chaudey Shows Nyberg Respect

Level 2 : 100/200, 25 ante

Two players checked to Louis Nyberg on a board of {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}, and he bet 3,000 in a bloated preflop pot from the button. From under the gun, Christopher Chaudey called him. Chaudey checked the {9-Spades} turn and Nyberg shoved all in for just under 10,000. Chaudey thought briefly and then mucked an {a-} face up.

Cody Gets Paid

Level 1 : 100/200, 25 ante

PokerStars Team Pro Jake Cody bet about 7,500 on the river from the button with the board reading {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Spades}{q-Clubs}. His under-the-gun opponent, Olli Autio, dropped in calling chips but couldn't beat {k-Spades}{q-Spades}, good for a flush.

Chaudey Gets Three Streets of Value

Level 1 : 100/200, 25 ante

After Marc MacDonnell had raised, Christopher Chaudey three-bet to 1,650 in position and received a call. The flop was {2-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{10-Spades} and MacDonnell check-called 2,400 from Chaudey.

On the {9-Diamonds} turn, MacDonnell checked, Chaudey bet 3,400, and MacDonnell called again. The river was the {5-Spades} and the Irishman checked a third time. Chaudey quickly bet 6,000, which received an equally fast call.

Chaudey showed {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} and MacDonnell slid his hand face-down in the muck.
