Tyler Foran

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Simon Higgins raised 1,000 in middle position and Jeremy Wien called in the hijack as did Fabio Chaves on the button.

All three players checked the A♠10♠8♦ flop to see the 2♣ turn.

Higgins checked once more before Wien put out a bet of 2,100. Chaves quickly folded and Higgins made the call.

The 10♦ completed the board and Chaves check-called a bet of 7,100 from Wien.

Wien tabled 4♣4♠ before seeing Q♣10♥ from Higgins.

"What a river." Sighed Wien, implying his bet gets through on different river cards.

Dominic Clementson

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Simon Cheng raised to 1,000 from under the gun and received a single call, from Joseph Matton on the button.

Cheng checked a flop of 2♠8♣3♥ and Matton took the opportunity to fire out a bet of 1,100. Cheng called.

Both players checked a 4♠ turn and when the river fell 5♠, Cheng took the initiative once more, making it 1,300 to go, which was enough to take the hand.

Matton did not let the setback affect his focus though, and was seen raking in a pot just a few hands later.

Maxime Taldir

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

From the hijack, Christopher Lindh opened to 900, and was raised to 3,500 by Fabrice Bigot on the button.

Lindh called, and the dealer fanned a flop of K♠4♣J♣. Bigot continued with a bet of 2,500, and Lindh check-called. On the turn 8♥, Bigot increased the bet to 10,000. Once again, Lindh check-called.

On the river 8♠, Lindh checked, and Bigot checked back. "Wow," said the Frenchman right after, when Lindh showed the winning hand 4♥4♠ for a set.

Adam Lamers

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Armin Rezaei opened to 1,000 in middle position and was called by the button. Zdenek Zizka shoved all in for his last 5,200 from the big blind and Rezaei reraised to 10,000 to force out the button.

Zdenek Zizka: 2♥2♣
Armin Rezaei: A♥A♦

Zizka was ready to get out of his seat until the flop of J♠9♠2♦ hit the felt to give him a set of deuces. The K♠ and 3♠ runout changed nothing as neither player held a spade.

On the next hand, Zizka found himself all in and at risk again with KxQx against his opponent's pocket nines. The board ran out clean until the K♦ spiked the river and Zizka doubled up once more.

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Three players saw a flop of Q♠7♣2♥ and both Michael Coombs and the middle position player checked to David Hoag who tossed in a bet of 1,600. Only Coombs called.

When the 10♠ hit the turn, Coombs checked and Hoag checked back.

The 9♥ complete the board and Coombs checked once more before Hoag fired a bet of 3,500. Coombs paused for a few seconds before tossing his cards into the muck.

Frank Visser

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Jason Teurquety, Joseph Heimann, and a third player were on a flop of Q♥4♠3♠. The third player bet 2,500 from the big blind and Teurquety called from the next seat over, as did Heimann in the hijack.

The turn fell the 8♠ and all three players checked before the 8♣ river completed the board. It checked to Heimann again, who now went all-in for 6,100 chips. The big blind thought about it but eventually folded, but Teurquety put in a reluctant call.

Heimann showed K♠Q♣ for top pair and just beat Teurquety, who tabled QxJx with a big sigh.

A player in middle position raised to 1,000 and Angela Jordison three-bet to 2,800 from late position, with the big blind and the original raiser coming along.

All three players checked the K♥Q♣2♠ flop and Jordison put out a bet of 7,200 on the 6♦ turn after it was checked around once more, getting both players to fold.
