Johansson Soaring; Ryynanen Sinking
On the first hand, Julien Martini raised and was called by Oscar Johansson in the small blind. Benny Glaser then three-bet from the big blind and both Martini and Johansson called.
Johansson and Martini drew two, while Glaser stood pat. Glaser bet after being checked to and both players called.
On the second draw, Johansson and Martini took one off and Glaser remained pat. Glaser again bet and both players again called.
The same drawing action occured and then all three players checked. Johansson showed 8x5x4x3x2x and neither Glaser or Martini could beat it — sending the pot Johansson's way.
A few hands later, Michael Rodrigues raised first-to-act and was called by Johansson on the button and Sampo Ryynanen in the big blind.
Everyone drew two on the first draw and action checked through.
On the second draw, Ryynanen drew one and both Rodrigues and Johansson drew two. Action checked to Johansson, who bet. Only Ryynanen called.
Both players drew one on the final draw and and Ryynanen check-called a bet from Johansson, who turned over 8x6x4x3x2x. Ryynanen couldn't beat it and mucked — conceding the pot to Johansson.
