Level 2
: 100/200, 0 ante
Dennis Bejedal raised to 500 from UTG+1 and Martins Adeniya called to his direct left. Marco Traniello to his immediate left called, as did Yury Gully on the button and the big blind.
Flop: 
- The big blind checked, Bejedal continued with a bet of 1,600, which folded out Adeniya, Gulyy and the big blind, leaving Bejedal and Traniello heads up.
Turn: 
- Bejedal saw no reason to slow down and he made it 3,800 to play and Traniello quickly called.
River: 
- Now Bejedal checked and Traniello checked behind.
Traniello shaped to put him hand in the muck but when he saw his opponent turn over 
he tabled 
and took down the substantial pot.
Andy Frankenberger looked puzzled and said, "I was trying to figure out how so many chips got into the pot," and Praz Bansi wittingly answered, "well it is No Limit Hold'em."
Some more counts for you to feast your eyes on.

Level 2
: 100/200, 0 ante
Roberto Romanello has just informed us of a bad beat he just took, dished out by Justin Bonomo.
According to the popular Welshman, the player under the gun opened to 400, Romanello three-bet to 1,400 only to see Bonomo four-bet to 3,600 out of position. The under the gun player got out of the way but Romanello clicked it back and five-bet to 7,200. Bonomo then flat-called this raise, leaving himself just 10,000 chips behind.
The flop came down 
rainbow and Bonomo shipped in his remaining chips. Romanello snap-called with pocket kings and was in great shape against the 
of the American but the turn was a cruel 
, completing Bonomo's straight and leaving Romanello drawing extremely thinly. The river bricked and Romanello is down to 8,000.
A couple of the players could not believe Bonomo's play and he is currently being berated by Romanello and his table mates.
From early position, Luke Keay raised to 600. Tristan Wade called from the next seat and then action folded to the player in the big blind and he also made the call.
The three players witnessed the flop come down 
and the big blind checked. After Keay fired in 1,300 for his continuation bet, Wade raised to 3,200. The big blind took a minute, but eventually folded. Keay quickly called.
The turn was the 
and Keay checked to his opponent. Wade decided on a bet of 4,000 and Keay made the call.
The river card completed the board with the 
and Keay led out for 6,000. Wade tanked for a little bit and then asked, "You got it?"
"I'll show you," responded Keay with a slight shrug.
Wade took a minute longer and then made the call. When he did, Keay tabled the 
for just a pair of queens. Wade showed the 
for a set of tens and scooped the pot.

On a board reading 
Athanasios Polychronopoulos checked to Mattern and the Frenchman set the price to play at 3,250. Polychronopoulos called from the small blind and the dealer put out the on the river.
Polychronopoulos now lead into Mattern with a bet of 6,600, which prompted Mattern (BTN) to ask, "did you catch the river? So sick." Thirty seconds later and Mattern's cards were flicked towards the muck.
