Virani Sits and Immediately Wins Massive Three-Way All in

Level 4 : 200/400, 0 ante
Mohsin Virani
Mohsin Virani

We came upon four players putting 10,000 apiece in the pot preflop. The flop came {9-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{5-Spades}, and Quan Zhou potted for nearly all of his chips in the small blind. The big blind shoved for 65,000, and Mohsin Virani was given serious pause in early position. He decided to call off for about 44,000 after using a time extension. The last player mucked.

Virani: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Zhou: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades}
Big blind: {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs}

The {j-Clubs} turn helped nobody, but the {k-Clubs} river gave Virani a straight. He scooped a massive pot at the expense of all of Zhou's chips.

One-Outer Vaults Gluszko Over Quevedo

Level 4 : 200/400, 0 ante
Tomasz Gluszko
Tomasz Gluszko

Federico Quevedo bet 6,500 from middle position on a board of {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}, and Tomasz Gluszko called from under the gun. The Polish player checked the {5-Clubs} river, and Quevedo potted for about 22,000. Gluszko shoved all in.

"Call," Quevedo said, though he didn't seem thrilled about the {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} he showed down for top boat.

Gluszko rolled over {7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Spades}{5-Diamonds} for quads.

First Slowroll Staredown

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

On a board of {3-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}, Jan Suchanek bet 3,000 from middle position and received a check-call from David Frieling, who was under the gun. The river was a {3-Diamonds}, bringing flush and full house possibilities. Suchanek bet 7,000 when checked to and Frieling snap-called, waiting for Suchanek to show.

The Czech player rolled over {j-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for a flush and kept his other two hidden.

"Slowroll?" Frieling said with a smile.

Suchanek showed {k-Spades}{q-Spades}, meaning he was indeed playing the flush. Frieling had it beat with {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{4-Hearts}.

Players went on break for 15 minutes.

Fuchs Doubles Through Petersen

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante
Robert Fuchs
Robert Fuchs

Robert Fuchs opened for 1,000 under the gun and got three-bet to 3,000 from Alexander Petersen a couple of seats over.

"Just put it in, you know you're going to," Petersen said with a smile as Fuchs thought.

However, Fuchs announced a pot-sized reraise. Petersen snap-called for 9,400 and they saw an {a-Hearts}{4-Spades}{q-Diamonds} flop. Petersen called a continuation-bet of 6,000. The turn was a {5-Spades} and Fuchs potted all in for 29,700, a tad less than pot.

"There's always a rebuy," Petersen as he called.

Petersen: {6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
Fuchs: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

Petersen needed a deuce or a seven, but he hit a worthless boat when the {4-Clubs} fell.

At another table, Andzej Wisniewski went bust.
