Heidel's Four-Bet Preflop Scoops Pot

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Oliver Heidel
Oliver Heidel

Cristinel Costin opened to 9,000 from the hijack, Martynas Racinskas then raised to 27,000 on the button before Heidel four-bet to 80,000.

Costin quickly folded, however Racinskas went into the tank. After trying to gauge how much his opponent had behind he ultimately folded and the dealer pushed the pot to Heidel.

Vivian Saliba had been at that table for the duration of the event, however she has since been eliminated.

Farukh Tach

Jan Pettersson opened to 8,000 from the button and Farukh Tach defended his big blind.

The flop was {3-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and Tach check-raised the 8,000 continuation bet from Pettersson to 27,500, who decided to call.

The turn was the {9-Clubs} and both players checked.

On the {q-Spades} river, Tach fired a 55,000 bet which earned him a call from Pettersson.

Tach turned over {j-Spades}{9-Spades} for a straight while his opponent sent his cards to the muck.

Curcu Takes Madanzhiev Out

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Stoyan Madanzhiev
Stoyan Madanzhiev

The flop read {8-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and Simon Taberham checked in the big blind. Sebastian Curcu bet 8,000 from the under-the-gun position for Stoyan Madanzhiev to make the call in the cutoff while Taberham got out of their way.

The turn was the {10-Diamonds} and Curcu continued with a bet of 29,000 which Madanzhiev called.

The {4-Hearts} completed the board and Curcu put in a stack of chips to put Madanzhiev all-in. The latter tanked for a while, looked at his own stack, peeked at his cards once more, before taking more time. In the end, he made the call for the 60,500 he had behind with the {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds} for top pair but Curcu held the {10-Spades}{10-Hearts} for the turned set.
