Roger Hairabedian from France is on his second bullet today having busted Day 1a. Coca Valeriu from Moldova was his opponent in this hand. Valeriu was in the small blind and had checked to Hairabedian on a board of ![]()
![]()
. Hairabedian bet 4,000 and Valeriu called. The river was
and Valeriu checked.
Hairabedian thought about what to do and messed around with his chips. He cupped both hands over an unknown amount and slid them over the line. He paused there for a moment. What was he up to? He lifted his hands, almost as if he were a magician, to reveal a bet of 12,000. Valeriu didn’t seem to give it too much thought before he called, but when he saw Hairabedian’s ![]()
for the flopped boat he slammed his remaining stack of 11,500 on the table in disgust.

There was a bit of teasing at Kara Scott’s table as she opened to 625 in the Cut-off. Ali Baskan called and put the chips out. “How much?” asked Majid Noubarian sat next to him and Max Droege asked slightly incredulously, “How much, it’s right there in front of you.” Noubarian made the call as did the big blind Selcuk Ayaz.
The flop was ![]()
