Chop Chop for Spraggy

Ben "Spraggy" Spragg opened the action to 2,640 from under the gun. Only Thiago "KKremate" Crema called in the small blind.

The two went heads up to the flop, which came down {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}. When checked to, Spraggy down-bet to 1,920. Crema check-raised to an even 6,000, and Spraggy called.

The {2-Spades} turn elicited a bet of 6,750 from Crema. Spraggy called.

After the {8-Clubs} double-paired the board, Crema fired 23,750, and Spraggy called again.

Crema showed {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}, chopping with Spraggy's {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}, both of them having rivered a boat.

Premium Falls Victim to Suited Connectors

"Pampa27" min-raised from under the gun to 3,000. Anatoly "NL_Profit" Filatov put more on top in middle position, three-betting to 9,750. Action folded to Thomas "WushuTM" Muehloecker, who then four-bet to 20,250 on the button. Only Filatov called.

The flop came {j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades}, and Filatov checked. Muehloecker continued for just 9,483, and Filatov quickly check-raised all in, well covering Muehloecker, who had 52,857 behind. Muehloecker called.

Thomas Muehloecker: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Anatoly Filatov: {5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}

Filatov had only a slight edge to win the hand, drilling the {2-Diamonds} on the turn to complete his flush. Muehloecker was drawing dead when the {10-Clubs} fell on the river, and Filatov collected his bounty.

Lucky Hit on the River

Mario "MB TREMENDO" Bonanata min-raised to 3,000 in early position. Action folded to Conor "1_conor_b_1" Beresford in the big blind, who three-bet to 11,750. Bonanata quickly called.

The flop read {4-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, and Beresford put out a small c-bet of 6,433. Bonanata called.

Beresford bet again to the tune of 19,864 on the {5-Diamonds} turn, and Bonanata called again.

When the river added the {8-Hearts}, Beresford checked, and Bonanata checked back.

Beresford showed {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}, no good versus Bonanata's {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a rivered two pair.

Garagnani Scores First Bounty

Christian "WATnlos" Rudolph opened to 3,255 from early position and was called by the player next to act. Pedro "pvigar" Garagnani had other ideas, though, three-betting to 16,500 from the small blind. Rudolph jammed his remaining stack, the player between folded, and Garagnani quickly called, barely covering Rudolph.

Christian "WATnlos" Rudolph: {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Pedro "pvigar" Garagnani: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} left some hope for Rudolph to catch up, but the {q-Clubs} turn sealed his fate, filling up Garagnani. The {7-Spades} on the river was inconsequential, and Garagnani collected his first bounty of the event.

Spiking a Queen for the Double

David "dpeters17" Peters opened the action to 4,400 in middle position and was called by the next-to-act player, "Sintoras," as well as the button. When "spaise411" three-bet to 20,000, Peters folded, and "Sintoras" jammed 95,990 total. The other player folded, and "spaise411" called.

"Sintoras": {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}
"spaise411": {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

The board ran out {q-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}, giving "Sintoras" a higher pair and the double-up.

Veldhuis Applies Pressure

Maksym "MAMOHT_T" Mamonov min-raised to 5,000 in early position and was called by next-to-act Mark "AceSpades11" Radoja, Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis in the cutoff, and the player in the big blind.

The four players saw a flop of {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{7-Hearts}. Action checked around to Veldhuis, who fired 7,871. The big blind folded, and Mamonov and Radoja called.

Three players remained for the {2-Spades} turn, and Veldhuis bet again when checked to, this time for 15,663. Both opponents quickly gave it up.

Quads Snap on the River

Flopping quads just never gets old.

"1m1year" opened to 5,825 in early position, and Samuel "€urop€an" Vousden three-bet to 17,500 next to act. Only "1m1year" called.

The two went heads up to a flop of {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. "1m1year" checked, and Vousden continued for 20,625. "1m1year" flatted.

The turn added the {3-Clubs}, and "1m1year" checked again. Vousden put out 27,500 this time. "1m1year" called fairly quickly.

Completing the board was the {8-Clubs}. "1m1year" checked yet again, and Vousden didn't give the spot much thought before over-bet jamming 217,071 into 137,600, covering "1m1year" by more than double.

"1m1year" snapped him off, though, revealing {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} to best Vousden's bluffed {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}.

Tremendous Pot for Mario "MB TREMENDO" Bonanata

Action folded all the way around to Mario "MB TREMENDO" Bonanata in the cutoff, who opted to open for 9,000. Only "Driekus888" called in the small blind.

"Driekus888" checked the {q-Clubs}{9-Spades}{6-Clubs} flop, and Bonanata continued big, to the tune of 21,000. "Driekus888" called.

The {3-Diamonds} landed on the turn, and Bonanata put out 39,000 when checked to. "Driekus888" check-raised to 112,631, leaving only 22,329 behind. Bonanata jammed, forcing "Driekus888" to play for all of it. "Driekus888" called.

"Driekus888": {q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Mario "MB TREMENDO" Bonanata: {q-Spades}{10-Spades}

The {9-Clubs} added no value to the all-in player's out-kicked hand, and Bonanata scooped a nice pot and a bounty.
