Level 35 : 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Damian Salas raised it up to 300,000 and was called by Dominykas Mikolaitis in the hijack. Once they checked the flop, Salas then bet the turn for 275,000. Mikolaitis made the call and they headed to the river.

Salas now cut out a bet of 1.35 million and Mikolaitis quickly sent his cards into the muck.

More for Salas and Mikolaitis

Christian Zetzsche

Level 35 : 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Hannes Speiser raised to 350,000 and Damian Salas three-bet to 1.05 million on the button. Speiser gave it brief consideration and folded.

Dominykas Mikolaitis then limped the small blind and Marco Streda checked his option in the big blind. They checked the flop and Mikolaitis bet the turn for 150,000 to win the pot.

Last but not least, Ramon Miquel Munoz pushed from the small blind. It was the second open shove of the Spaniard so far and Speiser in the big blind asked for a count. The shove was for 2,275,000 and that proved to be too much for Speiser as he folded.

Another Pot for Mikolaitis

Christian Zetzsche

Level 35 : 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

The pace of play remains slow and yet another hand culminated right after the flop.

It was Dominykas Mikolaitis that min-raised from early position and he was called by Damian Salas in the big blind. The flop brought and Salas checked, Mikolaitis continued for 300,000 and that won the next pot for the Lithuanian.

Two for Mikolaitis

Christian Zetzsche

Level 35 : 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Damian Salas raised to 350,000 and Dominykas Mikolaitis moved all in. Salas asked for a count on the shove, which happened to be for 2.5 million, however, no call followed.

One hand later, Mikolaitis raised to 300,000 in the cutoff and Hannes Speiser called in the big blind. The flop fell and Speiser opted to check-call a bet worth 275,000. On the turn, Speiser once again checked and Mikolaitis fired a second bet worth 575,000 to win the pot right there,

Obreshkov Takes From Mikolaitis; Salas Three-Bets Again

Christian Zetzsche

Level 35 : 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Dominykas Mikolaitis opened to 300,000 from under the gun and was called by Stoyan Obreshkov on the button, who did so after plenty of consideration. Both blinds got out of the way and they headed to the flop.

Mikolaitis checked his option and Obreshkov bet 250,000 in order to win the pot.

Brunno Botteon then claimed the blinds and big blind ante with a raise to 325,000 but had to forfeit 325,000 the very next hand. Botteon's raise was met by a three-bet to 1.1 million by Damian Salas, who raked in the pot.

Botteon Wins Small Pot

Christian Zetzsche

Level 35 : 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Several hands without major action followed, they in fact didn't even reach a flop.

It was then Brunno Botteon that raised the button to 325,000 and Damian Salas defended the big blind. The flop fell and Salas opted to check, which prompted a bet worth 450,000 by Botteon. That was all it took to win the pot uncontested.

First Pot to Salas

Christian Zetzsche

Level 35 : 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

If anyone had expected a slow start to the final table they were surprised in the very first hand. Damian Salas made it 350,000 to go and Manuel Ruivo three-bet to 950,000 from one seat over in the hijack.

Salas pondered about his decision for a while and announced a reraise, making it 2 million to go eventually. Ruivo gave Salas a staredown for a few seconds and folded.
