Ihor Samonov
Ihor Samonov

Simon Forster opened to 2,000 under the gun, and received two callers, before Ihor Samonov three-bet jammed from the button for 21,400.

Forster flat-called, and the other players got out of the way.

Ihor Samonov: Q♣Q♥ All in
Simon Forster: A♠J♥

Samonov was in good shape, and he smashed the K♠K♦Q♦ flop, the K♥3♥ runout completing the board.

Savio Jams on Grech

Level 5 : 400/800, 800 ante

Joseph Grech opened to 1,600 under the gun, and Damir Savio defended the big blind.

Savio check-called versus a bet of 1,600 from Grech on the Q♠7♠4♥ flop, leading to the 8♦ turn.

Savio checked once more, and Grech quickly fired out a bet of 4,400. Savio thought for a moment, before check-raising to 12,500. Grech made the call.

The 10♥ hit on the river, and Savio jammed for 33,000, just covering Grech, who quickly open-folded A♠6♠, for a whole lot of missed draws.

Unorthodox Approach Works for Melitaru

Level 4 : 300/600, 600 ante

Gustaf Soderholm opened to 1,200 from middle position, and Mihai Melitaru defended the big blind.

On the A♠7♥6♥ flop, Melitaru led out with an overbet of 5,000, which failed to shake off Soderholm.

The Q♥ hit on the turn, and Melitaru double-barreled with the exact same bet of 5,000. Soderholm seemed confused by the hand and folded.

Straight for Burke

Level 4 : 300/600, 600 ante
Kenny Burke
Kenny Burke

Around 24,000 had made its way into the middle, in a hand between Kenny Burke in the cutoff and Sonny Dimov in the big blind.

The board read 10♦8♦7♠A♣, and Dinov check-called a bet of 11,000 from Burke, to see the 8♥ river.

Dinov checked once more, and Burke fired out a tempting sized bet of 15,000. Dinov took some time and ultimately made the call.

Burke tabled J♦9♣ for the flopped straight and Dinov mucked. "Nice hand, I had ace-ten", claimed Dinov.
