Bendik Benefits From Straight Over Straight

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante
Jan Bendik
Jan Bendik

Jan Bendik as well as two other players including George Chehadeh limped in for 100 and another player then raised to 450, getting called by the three opponents. The initial player bet the {8-Clubs} {9-Spades} {7-Clubs} flop for 1,000 and was called all around before the {Q-Spades} came on the turn.

Bendik now led for 3,500 and Chehadeh raised to scare off the other two opponents. Bendik moved all in and was called to reveal a cruel setup:

Bendik: {J-Spades} {10-Diamonds}
Chehadeh: {10-Spades} {6-Spades}

Only a spade or jack would avoid the elimination of Chehadeh, but it was the {5-Clubs} on the river that changed nothing.

Chehadeh was left with 850 chips and doubled that up once with Ac] {Q-Diamonds} versus {K-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} thanks to the {Q-Spades} on the turn before running out of chips entirely.

Pavliuk with Trips

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

After two limps and a raise, Roman Pavliuk reraised to 1,000 out of the big blind and was called by Fuat Tanindi as well as Miltiadis Kyriakides. On the {K-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {8-Clubs} flop, Pavliuk bet 2,000 and only Tanindi called before both players checked through the {K-Clubs} on the turn.

The {9-Diamonds} river completed the board and Pavliuk bet 3,000, Tanindi called and then mucked when getting shown {K-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} for trips kings. The finalist of the LEI Main Event had to vent and left the table for a quick mental break.
