Parker Talbot
Parker Talbot

Parker ''Tonkaaaa'' Talbot raised to 3,960 from early position and ''Pigaoo'' defended his big blind. They then check-called Talbot's 2,655 continuation-bet on the 10♦2♠K♠ flop before the 5♠ turn was dealt.

Talbot now increased his bet sizing to 10,673 after another check from his opponent, who again obliged with a call.

The 4♦ river saw ''Pigaoo'' check for a third time, and Talbot responded with a huge overbet worth 72,905 chips. This happened to be ''Pigaoo''s remaining chips, and they decided to make put them all at risk by making the call.

Talbot showed 9♠7♠ for a flush, and the bare top pair of ''Pigaoo'' with K♦9♦ was no match.

Level 10 : Blinds 900/1,800, 225 ante

''BSNT_LG'' opened the action with a raise to 4,050 from under the gun before ''iamivar'' made it 9,900 to go from middle position. Lasse "Wistern" Jagd Lauritsen was in the small blind and put in the cold four-bet to 30,600.

''BSNT_LG" had seen enough and folded, but "iamivar'' went for one final reraise to 91,864, all of their chips. Jagd Lauritsen made the call and a classic race was to be had.

"iamivar": A♦K♥
Lasse "Wistern" Jagd Lauritsen: Q♥Q♦

Only numbers appeared on the 4♦5♣5♠9♦3♠ board, and the queens of Jagd Lauritsen held up. He scored a pot of over 100 big blinds, while "iamivar" was headed to the virtual rail.

Laszlo "omaha4rollz" Bujtas is currently sitting atop the leaderboard, playing a stack of almost 400 big blinds. The latest addition of chips happened when he opened to 4,000 from early position and ''Kudgel'' made it 11,987 to go from the hijack. Bujtas made the call before he led the J♦9♠7♣ for 4,500 chips.

''Kudgel'' called and did the same on the 3♥ turn for 12,300. The Q♦ river completed the board and Bujtas now bet a more sizable 43,417, covering his opponent's stack. ''Kudgel'' went into the tank for a bit but ultimately came up with a call.

Bujtas had rivered two pair with his Q♣J♣, while ''Kudgel'' had attempted to be a hero with his K♣9♣ for a pair of nines.

Veldhuis Vanishes on the River

Frank Visser
Frank Visser
Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 250 ante

''sebdrinks'' minraised to 4,000 from the cutoff and Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis made the call from the small blind. Daniel "42ayay" Erlandsson was in the big blind and did not deem the price high enough yet, as he upped the ante to 16,000. This was enough to let ''sebdrinks'' fold, but Veldhuis stuck around for a flop.

A♥5♠2♠ is what appeared on the players' screens, and Erlandsson fired a continuation-bet of 12,000 after a check from Veldhuis. Veldhuis made the call, and did the same for Erlandsson's 27,000 bet on the 10♣ turn.

The river brought the 3♣ and saw Veldhuis check for a third time. Erlandsson was done with the small bets and went all in for slightly more than the pot, his bet totalling 137,668.

Veldhuis could not come up with a call and let this one go, hoping for a better spot in future endeavors.

Level 12 : Blinds 1,250/2,500, 325 ante

Narcis "Narcisus90" Nedelcu was sitting in the under the gun position with only 4,813 chips to his name, less than two big blinds. He decided to put them all in, receiving a three-bet to 9,125 from ''yagrebulave'' in the hijack. The other players folded, and a showdown was had.

Narcis "Narcisus90" Nedelcu: 9♣4♦
''yagrebulave'': K♣J♣

The flop of K♠7♣10♦ left Nedelcu with only runner-runner outs to hit, and the 5♣ turn sealed his fate. A meaningless 2♠ river was dealt, but Nedelcu was already hovering over the registration button as he reentered for his fourth and final bullet.
