Mika Doubles Through Bensimhon

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Just before the blinds had gone up, Michal Kral raised the button to 125,000 and Samuel Mika called in the big blind. On a {6-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop, Mika check-folded to a bet worth 600,000.

A battle of the blinds with Eyal Bensimhon followed for Mika, who invested 150,000 on the {k-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop. He then jammed the {5-Spades} turn and Bensimhon reluctantly called.

Samuel Mika: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Eyal Bensimhon: {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}

The {5-Hearts} river was a blank and Bensimhon lost some change but remains among the biggest stacks.

Marcel Brunner
Marcel Brunner

Renat Bohdanov opened to 125,000 from under the gun and was called by Marcel Brunner in the cutoff. On a {q-Spades}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades} flop, Bohdanov continued for 150,000 and Brunner raised it up to 375,000, which Bohdanov called. The {9-Diamonds} fell on the turn and Bohdanov now checked, then called a bet of 420,000.

After the {4-Diamonds} river, Bohdanov checked the second street in a row and Brunner moved all in.

"Count please," Bohdanov requested and the all in was foir 830,000 total. Bohdanov himself only had around 1.1 million behind and eventually called.

Brunner rolled over {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts} and Bohdanov revealed {a-Spades}{3-Clubs} for ace-high, which triggered gasps from everyone at the table.

"What game are these guys playing, I am going back to limit games after this," Jeff Lisandro exclaimed. Brunner has been eliminated in 16th place and takes home €1,892.
