Binder Gets Jammy

Level 5 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Bernhard Binder
Bernhard Binder

Boris Kolev opened to 8,000 on the button and Bernhard Binder defended the big blind.

The 1058 flop was checked by Binder and Kolven asked for 7,000. Binder called, and the pair saw a A turn.

Binder check-jammed for his remaining 64,000 after Kolven bet 15,000. Binder's jam was snap-called by Kolven and the pair tabled their hands.

Boris Kolev: A4

The pair chopped the pot after being dealt the 8 river, and Binder was saved by the board.

In the next hand Binder was in the small blind and already in a 26,000 pot with his neighbor Emilien Pitavy, who sat in the big blind.

The pair looked down at a 8106 flop and had just been dealt a 5 turn. Binder bet 16,000 and Pitavy called, taking them to the 4 river.

Binder used a timebank card before moving in his entire stack to shove into Pitvay. There was little hesitation as Pitvay threw his hand into the muck.
