Koray Aldemir bet 20,000 from the big blind into a pot of about 75,000 with {9-Spades}{10-Spades}{j-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} on the board. Ben Maya called from his left and they saw a juicy {q-Spades} river. Aldemir bet 40,000 more and this time Maya came out raising with 155,000. Aldemir tanked briefly and then folded.

Adrian Mateos cajoled Maya into showing and he revealed {q-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for a boat.

Level 6 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel
Jean-Noel Thorel

Ole Schemion three-bet to 125,000 in position against Jean-Noel Thorel. Thorel called.

The flop came {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and Thorel moved all in for 507,000. Schemion had Thorel covered, but not by much. He took about a minute before calling with {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}. He was ahead of Thorel who held {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}.

The {k-Diamonds} came on the turn and gave Thorel the lead and the {j-Hearts} was no help to Schemion. Thorel earned a big double.

Into the Tank for Kitai

Level 6 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Davidi Kitai checked from the cutoff on a completed board of {10-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{a-Spades}. After thinking awhile, Ivan Luca bet 150,000 just a bit under the pot. Kitai went deep into the tank until someone called a clock. Kitai allowed his entire allotted time to expire without acting, and Luca dragged back his bet and took the pot.

Ramos Ships on Petrangelo

Level 6 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

We found Nick Petrangelo tanking in the small blind after it looked like he had three-bet to 40,000 and was facing a huge shove of 379,000 from Felipe Ramos, who was in the cutoff. Petrangelo thought it over a couple of minutes and then mucked.

Aido's Top Pair Good

Level 6 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Orpen Kisacikoglu bet 18,000 on a {3-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop when checked to by two players, and Sergio Aido put in a raise to 50,000 out of the big blind. The squeezed player ditched his cards, but Kisacikoglu stuck around. Both checked the {9-Spades} and {5-Spades} and Aido opened {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for flopped top pair. It was good.
