Wang Puts Melchers in Blender

Level 6 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Yuhan Wang
Yuhan Wang

A pot of 72,000 had developed by the river on a board of 642K4, in a hand between Dorian Melchers and Yuhan Wang, both in middle position.

Melchers checked, and Wang fired out a bet of 150,000, more than covering Melchers' remaining stack of 52,500.

Melchers went into the tank, taking at least three minutes eyeing the board and his opponent, the focus of his attention appearing to be Wang's neck, trying to get some kind of pulse indication as to whether Wang was bluffing.

Wang didn't move an inch throughout. Eventually, Melchers took a final peek at his cards and folded.

Sulc Takes From Pitavy

Level 6 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Marek Sulc raised to 2,500 from under the gun and called after Emilien Pitavy in the hijack three-bet to 8,000.

Pitavy continued for 4,500 on the 7QQ but Sulc quickly check-called, so after Sulc checked the 2 turn, Pitavy checked back.

The 9 river didn't bring more action so Sulc turned over AK. Pitavy's cards went into the muck.

Kohl Makes Everybody Fold

Level 6 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Jan Kohl opened to 2,000 from under the gun. Tommaso Castellano to his left three-bet to 7,000, and both Dimitrios Gkatzas in the small blind and Kohl called.

After two checks, Castellano bet 11,400 on a flop of 628 and was called by both of his opponents, then he fired a second barrel of 21,900 on the J turn. Gkatzas and Khol quickly called again.

The 4 river brought a third heart on the board, and after Gkatzas checked, Kohl led out for 50,000. Castellano went into the tank for several minutes until the clock was called. He eventually folded his hand, and so did Gkatzas.

Martin Berge: K10 All in
Martin Kabrhel: AK

Kabrhel had Berge crushed, and Berge was dead by the turn on the A556A runout, Kabrhel finishing with a full house.

Miegel Amazed by Bel Khayate's Fold

Level 6 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Jakob Miegel
Jakob Miegel

Jakob Miegel limped from the small blind, and El Mostafa Bel Khayate raised to 21,000 from the big blind. Miegel responded with a jam for around 130,000, and Bel Khayate went into the tank.

After around two minutes, with Miegel smiling at him the whole time, Bel Khayate open-folded AK.

Miegel was astounded, and tabled QQ, asking his opponent, "How do you fold?!"

Bel Khayate indicated it was too early for him to want to flip for his stack.
