Christian Zetzsche

Level 2 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Tamas Adamszki had previously three-bet successfully and then opened to 5,000 on the button, Quan Zhou called out of the big blind. On a K♦3♥3♣ flop, Zhou checked and Adamszki bet 4,000. A small check-raise to 11,000 by Zhou followed and Adamszki called.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 2 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Daniel Dvoress limped the small blind and called a raise to 10,000 by Timothy Adams in the big blind.

The K♣6♠2♦ flop brought 6,000 chips in by both and they checked the 5♦ on the turn. Dvoress bet the 3♦ river and Adams called but mucked when he was shown the 8♦8♠ for a pair of eights.

Mateos Makes a Six-Figure Bet

Frank Visser

Level 2 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Tamas Adamszki raised to 5,000 from under the gun and got calls from Quan Zhou on the button, Adrian Mateos in the small blind, and Ben Heath in the big blind.

The action then checked to Adamszki on the 2♠A♠9♠ flop and he made a bet of 8,000. Mateos was the only caller and the pair saw a turn of 7♦ appear, on which Mateos check-called a 28,000 bet from Adamszki.

The K♥ river rolled off and Mateos checked once more, leading Adamszki to make a sizable bet of 60,000 chips. However, Mateos did not deem that enough and raised to 230,000.

Adamszki spent one time bank extension but eventually let his hand go, chipping up Mateos significantly.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 2 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Adrian Mateos opened to 5,000 and folded when Ben Heath three-bet to 27,000.

Mateos opened to another 5,000 thereafter and Chris Brewer came along in the big blind. The K♠7♦3♥ flop was checked by the latter, Mateos bet 4,000 and Brewer called. On the 7♣ turn, Brewer led for 6,000 and Mateos folded.

Gab Yong Kim, one of two new entrants, then made it 4,000 to go first to act. Tamas Adamszki three-bet to 20,000 on the button and Kim called. They checked the 8♠7♦5♥ flop and Kim's bet of 25,000 on the 4♥ turn forced out Adamszki.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 2 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

In a limped battle of the blinds, only a small bet went in after the 9♦6♣3♦ flop between Orpen Kisacikoglu and Nacho Barbero. Kisacikoglu then check-called the 3♠ turn for 10,000 and led the 9♠ turn for 6,000.

Barbero tossed in two green T-25,000 chips and announced a raise to 42,000. Kisacikoglu called with the 9♣4♣ and chopped with Barbero's Q♠9♥.

Barbero and Dvoress Tangle in Four-Bet Pot

Frank Visser

Level 2 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Nacho Barbero raised to 6,000 from the cutoff and Daniel Dvoress reraised to 26,000 from the small blind. Barbero then put a four-bet to roughly 60,000 chips and Dvoress made the call.

The flop of 8♥10♠10♥ was checked by Dvoress before Barbero made a bet of 41,000. Dvoress came up with a raise to 112,000, and that spelled the end of the hand as Barbero tossed his cards into the muck.

Level 3 : Blinds 1,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Stephen Chidwick raised to 5,000 in the hijack for Daniel Dvoress in the cutoff and Nacho Barbero in the big blind to call.

The A♥6♦6♠ flop was checked to Dvoress and his bet of 6,000 won the pot.

Shortly after, Orpen Kisacikoglu raised and Chidwick came along from the big blind. Chidwick check-called once for 4,000 on the Q♠J♣7♦ flop before check-folding the 2♥ turn when Kisacikoglu bet 30,000.

Chidwick Puts Barbero to the Test

Frank Visser

Level 3 : Blinds 1,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Nacho Barbero opened the action with a raise to 7,000 from the cutoff and Stephen Chidwick was the only caller, from the small blind. The flop fell A♠9♦8♦ and Barbero made a continuation-bet of 8,000 once Chidwick had checked. Chidwick then called, and did so too for Barbero's 24,000 bet on the 3♦ turn.

The 10♥ river saw Chidwick check for a third time, after which Barbero made a pot-sized bet of 81,000. Chidwick took some time before putting all of his large-denomination chips in the middle, effectively putting Barbero all in. However, Barbero folded rather quickly, leaving around 250 big blinds for the Argentinian to play with.

Tamasz Adamski raised and called a three-bet to 25,000 by Gab Yong Kim. The J♣9♥4♥ flop saw Adamszki check and Kim's bet of 32,000 won the pot.

The Hungarian then three-bet out of the big blind for Adrian Mateos as the initial raiser to call. Adamszki led the K♥J♦7♣ flop for 27,000 and Mateos called. No action followed on the 3♣ turn and A♥ river as Mateos won the pot with the K♠8♠.
