Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Martin Raus kicked things off from middle position and raised to 2,300. Artur Martirosian in the small blind called. Martin Stausholm was sitting in the big blind, and he decided to three-bet to 8,500. Only Martirosian made the call.

On the A♠8♥7♠ flop, Martirosian check-called the 4,000 bet of Stausholm.

Both players checked the 10♦ turn.

Martirosian checked once again on the Q♣ river, and Stausholm went all in. Martirosian asked the dealer for a count, and they confirmed 25,100.

Martirosian then went into a deep tank, thinking for almost three minutes about his next move. In the end, he decided to call, and Stausholm showed K♣J♠ for a straight whilst Martirosian flashed KxQx for a pair of queens before he mucked the cards and paid Stausholm's double-up.

Sava Krink

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante

Mark Teltscher opened to 1,800 from under the gun and Aleksandr Shevlyakov three-bet to 6,000 on the button. Action folded back to Teltscher, who moved all in for about 16,000. Shevlyakov quickly called.

Mark Teltscher: A♦Q♣ All in
Aleksandr Shevlyakov: 9♣9♦

Teltscher was looking for help, but the board ran out 2♦8♣K♥2♣K♣, offering no favors. Shevlyakov’s pair of nines held strong, sending Teltscher to the rail.

As he stood up, Teltscher grinned and said, “I just wanted to have some fun six minutes before the dinner break.”
