Bonnardot Tank-Folds

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

Benjamin Bonnardot raised from early position and he was called by the other four players at the five-handed table.

The flop was {Q-Spades}{K-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and it checked around to Simo Boudarbala on the button. He took over the betting lead with a bet of 1,700 and the only player that called was initial-raiser Bonnardot.

The turn was the {A-Spades} and Bonnardot check-called a bet of 3,400 from Boudarbala. The river was the {3-Clubs} and Bonnardot checked again. Boudarbala put in a big bet of 11,000 on the river and Bonnardot disappeared in the tank for multiple minutes.

He ended up folding his cards and the pot was awarded to Boudarbala.

Zaki Gets Value With a Flush

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

The complete board was already on the table and the cards were {K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts}{7-Hearts}. There was about 7,000 in the middle when Hicham Zaki put in a bet of 4,500 from the under-the-gun position. His opponent sat on the button and thought about it for a while before making the call.

Zaki opened up {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts} for the second-nut flush and that was more than enough to take down the pot.
