Bogusz Wins Massive Three-Way All-In

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Karol Bogusz
Karol Bogusz

On a flop of {k-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, the action checked to Vasileios Tsaknis and he bet 9,500. Karol Bogusz flat-called and Marek Golebiewski then jammed for 23,800. Tsaknis raised the pot, Bogusz jammed and Tsaknis called.

Marek Golebiewski: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}
Karol Bogusz: {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts}{4-Spades}
Vasileios Tsaknis: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}{7-Spades}{2-Spades}

Tsaknis had the top set but many of his outs were blocked if Bogusz were to improve with his flush draw and open-ender. The {10-Clubs} turn gave Golebiewski an open-ender as well but it was Bogusz who nailed the {8-Diamonds} river. He doubled through Tsaknis for 141,700 and Tsaknis rumbled, then added "just write fuck off."

Toth Eliminated by Tsaknis

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Richard Toth
Richard Toth

The stack of Richard Toth went in before the flop and he was looked up by Vasileios Tsaknis, who was still somewhat steaming from the previously lost massive pot.

Richard Toth: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Vasileios Tsaknis: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}{q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

On a board of {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{2-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}, Toth failed to get there with his dominated pair as Tsaknis earned some chips back.

Kilic Busts Rabl

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Serok Kilic
Serok Kilic

Didier Rabl got his stack in preflop with the {9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs} and was looked up by Serok Kilic with the superior stack and {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}{7-Clubs}{j-Spades}{9-Diamonds} and Kilic made aces and jacks to deal the final blow. "Well done," came in return as a rather sarcastic comment by Rabl.

"You don't need to write the hand, he just liked to go all-in a lot," Alfredo Vega Meister added.

Hemmert Collects on the Flop

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Udo Hemmert raised the pot to 5,600 in the cutoff and picked up two callers in Michal Mrakes on the button and Ernst Stoller out of the small blind.

The {a-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Spades} flop was checked to Hemmert and he bet 10,000. Mrakes folded and so did Stoller as Hemmert claimed the pot without resistance.

Mrakes Busts to Hemmert

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

In the moment Jack Sinclair sat down at the table, Michal Mrakes was all-in with a short stack and Udo Hemmert as the initial raiser called.

Michal Mrakes: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Udo Hemmert: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades}

The {a-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{6-Spades}{10-Hearts} board improved Hemmert to a ten-high straight as Mrakes was left drawing dead on the turn already.

"Cheers," Sinclair nodded to him as both had ordered beers not long ago.
