Szunyoghy Doesn't Believe Mach

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Jan Mach raised to 5,000 from the late position and was called by Tamas Szunyoghy in the big blind.

The flop came {9-Spades}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades}, Szunyoghy check-called Mach's continuation-bet of 6,000.

They both checked through the {9-Hearts} on the turn to the {6-Spades} on the river. Szunyoghy checked for the last time and then called Mach's bet of 12,500. Mach tabled {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for the pair of nines on the board and Szunyoghy scooped the pot with {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for two pair.

Leong Cracks Aces to Scoop a Monster Pot

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

It was just the two blinds left in the hand on the river with the board reading {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}. There was already over 80,000 in the middle in what seemed to be an inflated pot.

Leong led out for a bet of 36,500 and the action was on Sansone who indicated he was holding pocket aces. He thought for a couple of minutes, trying to get a read on Leong but he gave nothing away. Sansone eventually called and Leong flipped over {j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for a full house on a double-paired board. Sansone flashed {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} but sent a healthy amount of chips across the table.

Madsen Folds to Vonmoos' Shove

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

The flop read {k-Spades}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} with around 20,000 in the middle.

Jeff Madsen had 18,400 in front of him in the small blind, Erkan Sonmez had a bet of 8,200 in front of him and folded. Michael Vonmoos also had a bet of 8,200 in front of him and tanked. After a while, Vonmoos shoved and Madsen asked for a count. The dealer only counted out the 5,000-value chips and Madsen dived into the tank. A minute or two later, Madsen asked the dealer if he could pull in the bet into the pot so he could see how much more it would be. The dealer refused but was corrected by the floor who happened to walk past.

Vonmoos had 77,100 left for the all-in and Madsen went through the options in his head. In the end, he opted to fold.
