Eychenne Flops Raise Wins Him the Pot

Tim Baker

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Thomas Eychenne had raised from the button and been called by the small blind before Samuel Auer-Klintmalm squeezed to 8,800 out of the big blind. Only Eychenne called.

Auer-Klintmalm fired a continuation-bet of 4,000 on the 2♦2♣3♥ flop and was met by a raise to 10,000 by Eychenne. Auer-Klintmalm didn't think for too long before throwing his cards into the muck and surrendering the pot to Eychenne.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Raul Paez in middle position, Remigijus Politika in the hijack, and Thomas Hueber in the cutoff had created a pot of 16,500 when they went to a flop of Q♣A♥5♠, which they all checked.

The 3♣ turn then saw Paez bet 10,000 and Politiki call. Hueber quickly let go of his cards before the 10♠ river completed the board.

Both remaining players knuckled the table. Paez showed A♠K♣Q♠6♣ for two pair, but it was no good against Politika's Q♥Q♦9♦6♥, who took down the pot with his set.

Remigijus Politika	120,000 70,000	70,000
Raul Paez	55,000 15,000	15,000

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Catching the action on a turn of K♠Q♠A♠5♠, a big pot of 42,500 was already in the middle when Apostolos Chatzopoulos checked in the cutoff to Victor Dota on the button.

Dota then put in an all-in bet worth 28,100. Chatzopoulos pondered for a bit before calling it off, putting his opponent at risk.

Victor Dota: Q♥10♠8♠7♥ All in
Apostolos Chatzopoulos: A♥A♦K♥5♣

Chatzopoulos needed the board to pair to eliminate his opponent, but the 4♣ river did not do so and Dota doubled up instead.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

With around 30,000 in the middle preflop, Thomas Hueber and Stanislovas Vinicenka saw a flop of J♠7♣5♥. Hueber was first to act and shoved for his remaining 20,000 with Vinicenka making the call to put him at risk.

Thomas Hueber: A♦A♥Q♦4♠ All in
Stanislovas Vinicenka: J♦10♠9♠6♦

Hueber had to fade a lot of outs if he was to stay alive in the tournament. However, the rest of the board ran out of 9♣9♦ which improved Vinicenka to trip nines, winning him the pot and sending Hueber out the door.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Arriving on a flop of 9♥4♥J♣, Bernd Gleissner was seen committing his stack of 40,700 into a pot of 35,000 from the hijack, with Valerie Yusupov looking him up with the covering stack in early position.

Bernd Gleissner: J♦9♣5♦4♦ All in
Valerie Yusupov: K♥K♣7♦3♠

Gleissner was ahead with his two pair, and made a full house on the 4♣ turn for an upgrade. The J♥ river gave him an even better full house, besting the kings of Yusupov and doubling up.

Yusupov was left with a healthy stack of 35,000, but was soon seen leaving the tournament area as he had lost those chips as well.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

George Sandford raised to 1,500 under the gun and was looked up by Aviv Zohar in the big blind. Sandford continued for 2,500 on the J♣7♦4♥ flop and Zohar check-called.

Zohar checked again on the A♠ turn before calling a bet of 7,000 from Sandford. The 3♣ river then completed the board. Zohar piled in 17,000 chips and sent Sandford into the tank.

After a minute or so, Sandford sighed and folded, surrendering the pot to Zohar.
