Iermolcheva Raises Then Gives Up

Maxime Taldir

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

In the cutoff, Adam Beyrer opened to 1,000 and was called only by Olga Iermolcheva in the big blind.

On the flop A♠3♦10♠, Beyrer thought the best option was to bet 2,000. However, Iermolcheva didn't want to let her chips go so easily, so she check-raised to 5,100. Beyrer called.

The K♦ came on the turn, and both players checked. The same action occurred when the second king K♥ appeared on the river. Then, Beyrer showed A♦7♠ for a pair of aces. It was the best hand as Iermolcheva folded.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

With a pot around 10,000, the board showed 5♥2♣7♥3♣ when a player checked to Govert Metaal who sent 8,900 in the middle. His opponent went deep into the tank before eventually shoving for approximately 20,000. Metaal snap-called and they tabled their cards:

Opponent: K♦K♠
Govert Metaal: 7♠7♣

Metaal had hit a set of sevens and the 10x river didn't change anything to give the pot to Metaal and bust his opponent.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Action was caught after the flop of 9♠6♣10♠, as Dylan DeStefano led out for 2,800 from middle position. Both the cutoff and button made the call.

The turn was the 7♠ while DeStefano fired for 4,200. Only the button called to the river.

While the river peeled off 6♥, DeStefano bet for 8,700 as his opponent folded for him to scoop the pot.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

2018 EPT Monte-Carlo Champion Nicolas Dumont opened from the hijack position and was called by the two players in the blinds.

On the flop 8♠A♦2♠, he continued with a bet of 1,300. Only Stephen Friedrich, the big blind, called him.

On the turn J♦, Dumont bet an additional 3,000, keeping 15,000 chips behind. Friedrich called once again.

On the river 2♦, Friedrich took the lead, betting a pile of 5,000 chips to force Dumont to go all-in. After a few seconds, Dumont couldn't find a fold and pushed his remaining chips. But when he saw Friedrich reveal 10♦8♦ for a flush, the Frenchman could only stand up and join the queue to reentry.

Justin Chu raised under the gun and it was three-bet to 3,100 by Raymond Dolan. It folded back to Chu who made the call.

The flop fell 6♦10♣9♣ and Chu check-called Dolan's continuation for 3,600. The same action happened on the A♦ turn, this time for 5,900.

The J♣ completed the board and this time Chu jammed for his last 13,700, putting Dolan into a decision. After some time, the latter eventually folded.

Late position raised to 1,300 while Elisa Nakagawa raised to 3,000 from the cutoff. His opponent called to the flop.

The flop came 4♠3♥6♥ and the opponent checked to Nakagawa. She led out for 4,100 while her opponent quickly raised to 8,300. Nakagawa was able to find the call.

Opponent: 3♦5♦
Elisa Nakagawa: A♥8♣

The river came the 8♥ to complete Nakagawa's nut flush and chip her up.

Niall Farrell's neighbor only had 1,800 chips remaining when he moved all-in from the cutoff. Farrell on the button was the only one to call.

Cutoff: Q♦10♦
Niall Farrell: A♠K♥

Farrell hit his ace on the river. Unfortunately for him, it completed his opponent's flush on 3♣4♦7♣3♦A♦. Anyway, Farrell didn't lose much and still has a starting stack.
