Level 5 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Santhosh Suvarna was seated in the exact same seat on his second entry and raised it up to 2,700 in middle position. He picked up three callers, including Fahredin Mustafov in the cutoff. The flop fell K♥5♣3♦ and all four players checked to the 2♦ on the turn.

Suvarna tossed in a delayed continuation bet of 8,000 and only Mustafov stuck around for the 2♥ on the river. Suvarna fired out another 27,000 and Mustafov deliberated before folding.

Level 5 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

No Limit Holdem

Nobody was willing to give an inch as Bryce Yockey raised from the hijack to 3,000. Michael Kamran re-raised to 8,000 from the button; and sitting in the big blind, Alex Foxen raised again to 24,000.

Back around to Yockey who put in the five-bet to 55,000 which got the job done as both players folded.

Level 4 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

With just two cards in play for each player and a board reading A♥K♣8♦6♠, there is no wonder the pot grew exponentially between Corel Theuma and Kane Kalas. Picking up the action on the turn, Theuma checked to Kalas who made a bet of 37,000 into a pot of around 60,000.

Theuma check-raised all in and Kalas didn't hesitate to call. Theuma showed 8♠8♣ for a set of eights while Kalas was left with A♦K♦ for two pair. The river was the 7♣ which changed nothing and Kalas was bounced to the rail.
