Ataoglu Keeps Stacking Chips

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante
Anil Ataoglu
Anil Ataoglu

Alik Zazian raised it up to 2,000 and picked up four callers. The flop came {a-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and Georgios Tsouloftas led out with a bet of 3,500 which was called by Anil Ataoglu on the button and Aurelio Reggi in the big blind.

The turn brought the {a-Diamonds} and the action checked around to the {4-Spades} on the river. Reggi fired out a bet of 6,500 which got Tsouloftas to fold but Ataoglu called after a minute. Reggi showed {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for two pair but Ataoglu held {5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} for a full house to add to his already large chip stack.

Vranken Eliminates Dato

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante
Antoine Vranken
Antoine Vranken

There were a couple of limpers and Antoine Vranken also limped from the small blind. Andrea Dato ripped in his last 15,000 from the big blind and the action folded back to Vranken who quickly called.

Andrea Dato: {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}
Antoine Vranken: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The flop came {k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and Vranken stayed in the lead with his pocket queens. The {k-Hearts} on the turn and the {9-Spades} on the river changed nothing as Vranken sent Dato to the registration desk for a re-entry.

Sitbon and Franco Clash

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante

Julien Sitbon raised it up from early position and was called by Sonny Franco in the cutoff along with the big blind. The flop came {j-Hearts}{6-Spades}{3-Spades} and Sitbon continued with a bet of 4,200 which only Franco called.

The {2-Hearts} landed on the turn and both players checked to the {j-Diamonds} on the river. Sitbon led out with a bet of 5,000 and Franco quickly called. Sitbon turned over {9-Spades}{8-Spades} for a missed flush draw while Franco held {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for ace-high to win the pot.

Bedell Sticks It In Drawing Dead

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

Tom-Aksel Bedell raised it up from the cutoff and Petr Kubenka three-bet from the small blind which Bedell called. The flop came {9-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} and Kubenka led out with a bet which Bedell called.

The turn was the {4-Diamonds} and Kubenka fired out another 12,500 into a pot of around 20,000. Bedell raised to 26,500 and Kubenka shoved all in. Bedell called off his stack of 46,500 but he saw the bad news.

Kubenka turned over {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} and Bedell was already drawing dead with {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}. The insignificant {3-Clubs} completed the board and Bedell stood up from his chair, claiming it was a bad seat all along.
