Eljach Catches Lipauka Bluffing

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Omar Eljach opened to 24,000 in early position and was called by Alik Zazian and Vadzim Lipauka in the blinds. The flop came {q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and it checked to Eljach who continued for 20,000. Zazian folded but Lipauka check-raised to 54,000 which Eljach called.

The turn brought the {8-Spades} and Lipuaka shipped all in. Eljach had 163,000 in front of him and he went into the tank for a minute before finally making the call. Lipauka showed {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} for a straight draw while Eljach had {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for the best hand.

The river was the {9-Hearts} which paired Lipauka but it wasn't enough as he sent over a double up.

Romain [Removed:338]: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Rafael Rafi: {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

The flop came {10-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and [Removed:338] still held a dominating position. The {9-Spades} on the turn got a loud reaction from Rafi but the {k-Hearts} on the river brought out some swear words and [Removed:338] earned himself a double up.

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Yannick Schumacher
Yannick Schumacher

Yannick Schumacher moved all in for 78,000 from under the gun and was called by Matteo Calzoni. Maria Teixeira also pushed all in for 295,000 in the big blind which got Calzoni to lay his hand down.

Yannick Schumacher: {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Maria Teixeira: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

The flop came {q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades} to give Schumacher a pair of fives but it wasn't enough as Teixeira's jacks were still out front. The {k-Clubs} on the turn and the {8-Diamonds} on the river changed nothing to eliminate Schumacher.
