Bart Boermans had won a larger pot early on Day 1b and continued to chip up thereafter, adding nearly 50% to what he started with.
In the latest pot against Ferdi Pamdir, both checked the ![]()
![]()
![]()
turn and
river. Pamdir tabled the ![]()
but Boermans had that beat with the ![]()

Andreas Gondrom raised to 600 and Duc Quy Nguyen three-bet to 2,100 on the button for Gondrom to call. What followed was a flop of ![]()
![]()
on which Gondrom checked, Nguyen continued for 3,200 and the call came shortly after.
On the
turn, Gondrom check-called for another 7,500 and then checked again the
on the river. Nguyen fired a third barrel for 7,500 and Gondrom just flat-called to get shown the ![]()
. Slowly, Gondrom rolled over the ![]()
for a flopped set and chipped up in a fairly significant pot.
David Taborsky is one of the most well-known local regulars in the Czech Republic and he was spotted in the field. In a battle cutoff versus button, Taborsky opened and called a three-bet to 2,000 by Sebastian Kappenberg.

![]()
flop. The action checked all the way to Bulent Belek on the button and he bet 2,900. That was all it took to shut down his three opponents and Belek earned the pot.
Andrej Desset came into the day on a mission to do better than 1a and immediately started applying pressure. The latest three-way pot saw him up against Sergio Benso and Ferhat Yildiz which led them to the ![]()
![]()
flop.
It checked to Desset and he bet 3,100 from the cutoff into a pot of three times as much. Benso reluctantly folded and Yildiz came to the same conclusion.
The Day 1b field has already reached 113 entries and several notables jumped into the action throughout the last few minutes.

![]()
![]()
turn, the action checked around between Arash Karimkhanzand, Raffael Wilbertz and Ivo Gerber. They also checked down the

Wilbertz showed the ![]()
and Gerber mucked. However, Karimkhanzand had the best of it with the ![]()
to add to his stack early on Day 1b.
