Theologis Loses Loads; Gets Some Back

Level 6 : 700/1,400, 175 ante

Alexandros "Pwndidi" Theologis had lost a big portion of his stack before the break when Joao "Naza114" Vieira called a three-bet and check-called two streets to then bet the {j-Spades}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades}{k-Spades} river for 31,500 with very few chips behind. Theologis called and was shown {a-Spades}{10-Spades} for the nuts.

The same table provided more action after as Theologis raised to 3,080 and was called three ways. On the {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{9-Spades}{j-Diamonds} turn, Theologs bet 6,860 and was called by Thomas "WushuTM" Muehloecker on the button, "MaxHendrix" in the small blind and Niklas "Lena900" Astedt check-folded in the blinds. On the {5-Diamonds} river, Theologis jammed for just over the size of the pot and Muehloecker folded.

In a hand that took place just prior to the break, Simon "C. Darwin2" Mattsson raised to 3,080 and Adrian "Amadi_017" Mateos three-bet to 8,400. Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian four-bet to 22,400 on the button and Mattsson jammed for 89,226 to force out Mateos, while Martirosian quickly called.

Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}

The {q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs}{2-Hearts} board left Mattsson drawing dead on the turn as Martirosian vaulted into an early lead. The vacant seat was then filled by Chris "ImDaNuts" Oliver.

"CrazyLissy" chipped up further soon after when they min-raised to 2,400 and called a three-bet to 7,560 by Thomas "MarToMchat" Boivin from one seat over. On the {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop, "CrazyLissy" check-raised to 13,152 and Boivin made the call to see the {4-Diamonds} on the turn.

Mirza "zazano" Muhovic raised to 2,628 and Sami "Lrslzk" Kelopuro three-bet to 8,400 from one seat over on the button, which triggered a four-bet to 18,600 by Muhovic and a call by Kelopuro.

While the {q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} flop and {7-Diamonds} turn brought no action, Muhovic then jammed the {9-Diamonds} river and Kelopuro folded.

Leonard Loses Some to Martirosian and Mattsson

Level 5 : 600/1,200, 150 ante

A raise to 2,664 by "milennial" was called by Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian and Patrick "pads1161" Leonard and the three-way flop of {7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} was checked through, as was the {j-Diamonds} turn.

Martirosian bet the {9-Diamonds} river for 6,722 and Leonard was the only caller, who mucked when being shown {j-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

One hand later, Leonard opened to 2,520 and Simon "C. Darwin2" Mattsson came along from the big blind. Again the {8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop and {9-Clubs} turn were checked. Mattsson's bet of 5,084 on the {10-Spades} river was called and the Swede claimed the pot with {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for a hack-high straight.
