Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

With three players in the mix and a pot of around 3,700 already at stake, the flop came down 7♠A♥A♦. After Robertas Sakinis checked, Arber Morina made a bet of 1,000, which only Rachid El Yaacoubi chose to call.

Morina continued to take the lead on the J♦ turn with a bet of 1,500, but El Yaacoubi responded with a raise to 4,100, prompting Morina to call.

Both players checked when the K♠ hit the river, leading to a showdown. Morina revealed K♦4♦, having turned a flush draw that became a pair of aces and kings on the river. El Yaacoubi quickly mucked his cards, clearly not happy.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Stanislaw Schaefer took the lead with a bet of 1,500 on the 2♦4♦9♥ flop, with around 3,700 already in the pot. Both Fabian Bartusch in the small blind and Petr Satek in the big blind decided to call.

When the 7♥ hit the turn, both blinds checked, and Schaefer fired again, this time for 3,100. Satek was the only one to call.

The river brought the 10♦, and both players checked, leading to a showdown. Satek revealed A♦4♠ for a pair of fours, but Schaefer showed A♣9♠ for a pair of nines, which was enough to claim the pot.

Paduano Doubles Up Thanks to Margolin's Misclick

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Adrian State kicked off the action with a minimum raise, prompting Timur Margolin in the small blind to make it a three-bet to 20,500. State stood up to get a closer look at the situation. Meanwhile, Arturo Paduano in the big blind decided to go all-in.

State turned to Margolin and asked, “Was it a misclick?” before folding his hand. With the action back to Margolin, he explained that he had mixed up the colors and actually intended to raise to just 4,500 instead of 20,500. After some consideration, he decided to call Paduano’s all-in, leading to a showdown.

Arturo Paduano: A♦J♠ All in
Timur Margolin: 8♠7♠

When the flop came down A♣9♥7♠, Paduano scoffed, clearly unhappy with the board despite being ahead with a pair of aces. The 4♦ turn and 2♣ river didn’t change the situation, and Paduano managed to double up, benefiting from Margolin's mistake.

State Stacks Paduano

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Action was picked up with Adrian State all in and risk versus the covering stack of Arturo Paduano. State had a stack of roughly 40,000.

Adrian State: 6♠6♦ All in
Arturo Paduano: A♣10♦

State slid a small toy car into the middle of the felt before the dealer fanned out the 10♠K♥6♣ flop, which provided State with middle set. The A♥ turn gave Paduano some hope but he couldn't boat up on the 2♣ river.

The next hand, State and Paduano were all in again. This time Paduano was at risk.

Arturo Paduano: A♠Q♣ All in
Adrian State: A♣K♦

State had Paduano pipped, and he didn't deploy his toy car into the pot this time. It wasn't needed as his superior ace held across the 6♥4♣J♠8♣8♠ runout to secure the rest of Paduano's stack, which was roughly 13,000.

Boris Progner opened from the button to 1,100. Or Nezer three-bet to 4,000. Progner made the call.

Nezer led for 2,500 on the Q♠Q♦7♥ flop, which Progner called. Nezer led again on the A♥ turn, this time sizing up to 9,500. Progner made the call once again.

On the Q♣ river, Nezer moved all in and had Progner covered. Progner snap-called and showed Q♥4♥ for quads. Unamused, Nezer stood up from the table, turned the final queen over before showing A♠A♣ for top boat.

He cut out the 15,800 he owed Progner and retook his seat at the table.
