Christoffer Andersson raised it up to 600 from the hijack and was called by the button. Mark Rink three-bet to 3,200 in the small blind and only Andersson called.

The flop came {8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Rink opted to check to Andersson who bet 4,700. Rink called and the {j-Clubs} landed on the turn. Rink checked again and Andersson tossed in another bet of 10,500. Rink opted to fold this time and Andersson picked up the pot.

Reard Gets After It from the Start

Level 3 : 100/200, 200 ante

Unibet Poker Ambassador Alexandre Reard just took his seat for the first time following the break and wasted no time in picking up his first pot. After a raise to 500 from under the gun, Gwennael Belleflamme re-raised to 1,500 in the hijack. Reard flat-called from the button along with the player under the gun.

The flop came {k-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and the action checked to Belleflamme who continued for 2,100. Only Reard called and the {10-Diamonds} landed on the turn. Belleflamme checked this time and Reard dropped in a bet of 3,700. Belleflamme gave it some thought but decided to ditch his cards in the muck.

Cinca Turns a Set

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante

The action folded around to Mykola Kostyrko in the cutoff who made it 300 to go. Alexandru Cinca three-bet from the small blind and Kostyrko called. The flop came {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and both players checked to the {j-Spades} on the turn.

Cinca tossed in a bet of 2,600 into a pot of around 3,000 and Kostyrko made the call. The {3-Clubs} on the river slowed the action with four clubs on the board and both players knuckled the table. Cinca flipped over {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} for a set of jacks and Kostyrko was unable to beat it.

Helgevold on the Rebound

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante
Elektro Helgevold
Elektro Helgevold

It's been a tough start for the man with an electrifying name as Elektro Helgevold from Norway found himself down to around 10,000 chips after the first level. The blinds are still small enough that he still has plenty of chips to work with, however.

Francis Vandendriessche opened to 300 in middle position and Helgevold three-bet to 900 from the small blind. Vandendriessche called and the flop fell {j-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}.

Helgevold checked to Vandendriessche who bet 800 and Helgevold called. The turn was the {k-Spades} and both players checked to the {5-Spades} on the river. Helgevold tossed in a bet of 1,000 and Vandendriessche laid his hand down.
