Level 1
: 50/100, 0 ante
The table of Andreas Broch and [Removed:19] kicked off three-handed and both were involved in a big pot right away. Picking up the action on the 
turn, both invested 800 each to see the 
on the river. Sokolovskiy checked and called a bet of 1,500 by Broch, then mucked when he was shown 
for queen-high and a busted flush draw by the Dane.

The flop read 
with 600 in the pot already. Gevorg Gevorgian bet 600 from the small blind and was called by Peter Jaksland sitting in the big blind.
The turn brought them the 
and Gevorgian bet 1,000 this time. Jaksland called again.
The river completed the board with the 
, Gevorgian continued with another bet of 1,000. Jaksland thought about it for a bit and then threw in a chip to call. Gevorgian tabled 
and Jaksland mucked while being a bit shocked. Gevorgian just laughed and stacked his newly acquired chips up.

Rishi Bhasin raised to 300 first to act and picked up two callers in Kenan Celik and Kalle Gasstorp, who had just taken a seat a few moments ago. The trio checked through the 
flop and the 
turn before the 
river paired the board.
Celik bet 400 and that was good enough to rake in the pot uncontested. Their table is now playing seven-handed after the addition of Gasstorp and seven tables are active towards the end of the first level.

The player in the under-the-gun position raised to 300 and was called by Andrey Andreev, on the button, and Wolfgang Beck, in the small blind, and the player in the big blind.
They all checked through the

The river completed the board with the , now Beck bet 2,200 and Andreev took some time to consider his options but decided to just call in the end. Beck showed 
for the missed flush and gutshot straight draw but was beat by the 
of Andreev as he had hit runner-runner kings for trips and the pot.
