Zaskodny Gets a Sweet Double-up

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

One of the stronger players in the field today is Lukas Zaskodny. The Czech professional, who has already amassed over $150,000 in lifetime winnings, just netted a sweet double-up to get himself up to a playable stack.

On a {J-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{6-Clubs} flop, a player bet 2,700 and Mikhail Sokolovsky called. Zaskodny raised to 10,800, leaving himself a little under 10,000 behind. The initial better folded, but Sokolovsky put in a massive amount of T-5,000 chips with theatrical antics. Zaskodny snap-called it off.

Mikhail Sokolovsky: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Lukas Zaskodny: {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}

Zaskodny was way ahead with his set of fours and held up after the {9-Spades} turn and {9-Diamonds} river.

Double Seat Open Vaults Harris into a Bigger Stack

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante
Carl Harris
Carl Harris

Gabriel Mayer opened the action with a raise and short stack Drazen Hadur shoved from the small blind for around 10,000. Carl Harris in the big blind, who was sitting on an already impressive big stack, looked up Hadur and Mayer had around 17,000 left. The German eventually called with the words "I can't get out of that one anymore" and the cards were tabled.

Drazen Hadur: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Gabriel Mayer: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}
Carl Harris: {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{J-Diamonds} and the double knockout further increased the stack of Harris.

Malec is seated to Jaime Staples' direct left, which could make for some interesting spots.

Staszko Rising

Level 6 : 250/500, 75 ante
Martin Staszko
Martin Staszko

With already around 20,000 in the pot, Martin Staszko was facing a tough decision holding {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} on {7-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. His opponent had bet 10,000 and Staszko took several minutes before making the call.

Staskzo turned out to be right, as his opponent slid his cards quietly into the muck. The 2011 WSOP Main Event runner-up, who made the King's High Roller Final Table earlier this week, is up to 70,000

Team PokerStars Online Pro and Twitch hero Jaime Staples has decided to join in on the fifth level of the day. Now, we're not suggesting anything, but Staples partied it up quite a bit last night at the PokerStars Players Party. Maybe, just maybe, a few extra hours were needed this morning.

Luckily, what happens in Rozvadov is plastered all over the internet. Read all about Staples busting a move in the PokerStars Blog.
