Cosmin Joldis
Cosmin Joldis

With 435,000 in the middle already, the flop read {2-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{6-Spades}.

Both Cosmin Joldis (under the gun) and Kathy Holz (early position) checked. Haecheol Jang bet 150,000 from the hijack and only Joldis made the call.

The turn was the {5-Hearts}, Joldis now check-called the 300,000 continuation-bet of Jang.

The river completed the board with the {9-Diamonds} and Joldis checked for the last time. Jang counted out his own stack and then fired another bet over the line, now for 600,000. Joldis glanced at his cards once more, looked at Jang, and then opted to fold.

Hosseini Takes From Obreshkov

Level 20 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Stoyan Obreshkov
Stoyan Obreshkov

The flop read {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{8-Hearts} with almost 200,000 in the middle.

Both Stoyan Obreshkov in the big blind and William Hosseini in mid-position checked.

They did the same on the {2-Hearts} on the turn to see the {4-Clubs} complete the board on the river. Obreshkov now bet 60,000 and Hosseini raised. Obreshkov asked how much the raise was for and the dealer confirmed it was 235,000. Obreshkov tanked while talking through all the options until the clock was called on him. The floor gave him 30 seconds to make a decision and when the floor gave him the 5-second warning, Obreshkov opted to let his hand go.
