Kaladjurdjevic Applies Pressure on Foxen

Maxime Taldir

Level 2 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

After Kristen Foxen raised from the hijack, Dejan Kaladjurdjevic in the cutoff three-bet to 27,000. Foxen four-bet to 82,000 and Kaladjurdjevic called.

The dealer fanned a flop of 2♠2♦10♦ and Foxen bet 40,000. She was called but checked the 5♠ turn. Kaladjurdjevic seized this opportunity to bet 75,000 and Foxen made the call.

The 3♥ river was checked by Foxen but Kaladjurdjevic bet 450,00, more than Foxen's stack. She went deep into the tank and eventually chose to fold.

Level 2 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

After recently busting out, Eelis Parssinen took no time and used one rebuy for the tournament. He sat back down at a new table and was caught in a hand against Vinny Lingham.

Parssinen was seen opening to 8,000 from the cutoff with Lingham making the call from the small blind.

The J♣A♦6♣ flop was check-called by Lingham after Parssinen bet 7,000. Both players were quick to check after seeing the 4♠ turn to get to the K♥ river.

Lingham bet 15,000 and Parssinen called. Lingham said "Jack" and showed his J♠10♥. Parssinen took the pot after turning over his K♣9♥ for a pair of kings.

The 10♣9♥Q♦ flop was checked through the J♠ turn to see the 6♠ river. Jensen bet 35,000 which was enough to see Koon muck.

Level 2 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Down to 42,000, Eelis Parssinen in the cutoff moved all-in and was called by Adrian Mateos in the small blind.

Eelis Parssinen: Q♥J♦ All in
Adrian Mateos: A♠Q♠

Parssinen flopped top pair on J♠2♦8♣, but Mateos found a better pair with the A♦3♥ runout so Parssinen was eliminated. He immediately reentered.
