Papazian Doubles His Stack Without Being At Risk

Level 10 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Left with 60,000 chips 20 minutes before the end of Level 9, Alexandru Papazian had 50,000 more chips 10 minutes later.

First, he won a 30,000 pot thanks to a better pair. Then he called from the big blind an open by a player in middle position, which was already called by the cutoff.

On the flop 9J6, the middle position player continued to 3,300, and got called twice. The turn 10 didn't change anything, as all three players checked.

This lack of action motivated Papazian to take the lead on the river 2, where he bet 25,000. Covered, the player in middle position folded, and the cutoff also mucked his cards.

Papadopoulos Caught Bluffing

Level 10 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

The button opened to 3,200 and was called by the small blind and Kyriakos Papadopoulos in the big blind.

All three players checked the flop 1045. However, on the turn 6, Papadopoulos took the lead by betting 7,000. The button looked unhappy but folded, while the small blind eventually called.

On the river 2, Papadopoulos fired another bet of 18,000, and the small blind checked and called once again. Papadopoulos briefly revealed his cards Jx9x but quickly threw them into the muck as his opponent showed 109 for a pair.
