Zizka and Eychenne Each Win at Showdown
Level 9
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Sirzat Hissou opened to 20,000 on the button and Zdenek Zizka called in the small blind. Jan-Peter Jachtmann also came along from the big blind.
On the flop of J♦K♥7♣, it checked to Hissou, who bet 25,000. Zizka called and Jachtmann folded.
The J♣ turn and A♥ river both checked through, and Zizka's A♠Q♠ was good at showdown.
On the other table, a pot of around 150,000 had brewed between Emilien Pitavy in the small blind and Thomas Eychenne in the big blind.
The board read 5♦A♥K♠K♦ and Pitavy bet 40,000, which Eychenne called to the 3♠ river. Both took their time checking, and Pitavy showed 9♠9♦ for a pair of nines. Eychenne had that beat with A♣5♥ for a pair of aces to win the pot.
