Horrendous Start for Danchev

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Half an hour has been played and Dimitar Danchev has been reduced to almost one third of the starting stack. He first folded after a five-bet pot that cost him about 8,000 chips and then dropped some more against Igor Dubinsky's set of fours. Furthermore, Danchev was involved in a three-way pot with pocket queens including the {Q-Spades}.

On a {5-} {8-} {7-} {A-Spades} turn, the Bulgarian check-called a bet of 3,800 into 9,000 and the blank river got checked through. His opponent showed {A-} {5-} for two pair.
