Xi Lays Down Kings Before the Break

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Krasimir Yankov opened {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} from the hijack and got calls from Ming Xi {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} in the cutoff and Ryan Riess in yhe big blind {7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}.

The flop came {7-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} and Riess checked. Yankov continued for 125,000 and Xi was the only caller. The pair checked the {7-Clubs} turn (which would have given Riess trips) and the river was the {10-Spades}. Yankov bet 485,000 and Xi tanked for a while before folding his kings.

Players are now on their first 15-minute break of the day.

Obreshkov Likes the Flop and Turn

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Koray Aldemir made it 130,000 to go on the button and Stoyan Obreshkov defended from the big blind. The flop came {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades} and Obreshkov checked to Aldemir who bet 135,000. Obreshkov just called and the {10-Spades} hit the turn.

Obreshkov checked again and Aldemir slid in a bet of 420,000. Obreshkov thought for a minute before making the call. The river was the {7-Hearts} and both players quickly checked. Obreshkov tabled {a-Spades}{5-Spades} for two pair and a flush draw on the turn. Aldemir was unable to beat it and mucked his cards.
