The board brought no surprise with {2-Clubs}{2-Spades}{6-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and Dahan doubled up.

Laubinger Builds his Stack

Level 5 : 200/300, 300 ante

Michael Bareither limped and Joe Quinn raised to 1,100 next to him. Alessandro Laubinger called in the cutoff and so did Bareither.

The flop fell {10-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{a-Spades} and Bareither checked to Quinn who bet 2,100. Only Laubinger called. On the {q-Clubs} turn, Quinn tanked and check-called a bet from Laubinger for 4,500.

The {2-Spades} completed the board and Quinn quickly check-called for 6,500 but mucked his cards when Laubinger revealed {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for two pair.

Kassouf Adds Some Chips

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

William Kassouf opened under the gun and Tim Wasser three-bet to 2,200. It folded back to Kassouf who tanked for a minute and made the call.

The flop brought {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and both checked to see a {2-Spades} on the turn. Kassouf led out for 2,200 and it was enough to make Wasser fold and win the pot.
