Molaci Doubles Through Ponath

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

The pot contained about 6,000 on a {6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} flop and Kayhan Molaci checked from the big blind. Tobias Ponath bet 3,600 from the under-the-gun position and Molaci responded with a shove for 15,300 in total. Ponath tanked and then called.

Kayhan Molaci: {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Tobias Ponath: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}

The turn brought the {6-Diamonds} for a full house for Molaci and the {4-Spades} on the river didn't help Ponath in any way. Molaci doubled.

Andreev Takes Out Holke

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Andrey Andreev
Andrey Andreev

The PokerNews live reporting team saw Tom Holke get up from his table and went over there to see what had happened.

Andrey Andreev had {4-Clubs}{3-Hearts} in front of him on a {9-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs} board and the pot was being awarded to him.

Hamza Miri was kind enough to recount what had happened: "That was an amazing pot. Holke raised to 5,500 for no reason and Andreev called from the button. I folded queen-nine in the big blind. The flop came nine-queen-nine and they both checked. The turn was the four. Holke bet 5,000 and Andreev called. The river was a three, Holke shoved for about 20,000 and Andreev snap-called with a four and the best kicker! Holke had ten-eight off-suit!"

While Miri was telling all of this, the whole table laughed.
