Zisimopoulos Back To Starting Stack

Level 3 : 75/150, 25 ante

The player in the hijack limped in, the player in the small blind completed and Georgios Zisimopoulos opted to check from the big blind.

The flop came {3-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}, the small blind bet 400 and both Zisimopoulos and the hijack called.

They all checked through the {2-Spades} on the turn. The {A-Diamonds} on the river completed the board, the small blind checked, Zisimopoulos bet 1,600 and the two other players quickly folded. Zisimopoulos collected the pot and it seems like he's back on the starting stack.

Cold Stares By Cormier

Level 3 : 75/150, 25 ante

The board read {10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{K-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and the player in the cutoff had bet 1,125. Jeff Cormier, sitting in the big blind, raised to 3,300. Cormier gave his opponent a good stare and after a while, he folded and showed the {K-Clubs}. Cormier didn't say anything and just started stacking up his chips.

Magalashvili Clashes with Urban

Level 3 : 75/150, 25 ante

Just at the end of the previous level, the board read {9-Spades}{6-Spades}{A-Hearts} with a pot of around 1,500 and Michael Magalashvili check-called the 550 bet of David Urban. They both checked through the {10-Spades} on the turn.

The flop came with the {A-Spades} to complete the board, now Magalashvili bet 1,300 and Urban called. Magalashvili showed {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts} for two pair, aces and queens. This was enough for Urban to muck his hand and the dealer to push the pot to Magalashvili.

Cormier Scaring Them Off

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

The player in the under-the-gun position had raised to 250, the player in the cutoff called. Jeff Cormier raised to 900 from the button. Alexander Lahkov, with 3,500 behind, quickly folded, and so did all the others. Cormier takes the pot without even seeing any cards on the board.
