Garcia Stuns Kesidis on the River

David Salituro

Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Daniele Sacchi raised to 80,000 in early position and was called by Ratmir Kesidis and Murilo Garcia in the blinds.

Sacchi bet 110,000 on the K♦3♠4♠ flop and Kesidis called. Garcia then raised to 325,000 and Sacchi folded, but Kesidis moved all in for 1,395,000. Garcia burned through three time banks before calling to put Kesidis at risk.

Ratmir Kesidis: 3♦3♣ All in
Murilo Garcia: A♠7♠

Kesidis had flopped a set and needed to hold on against Garcia's flush draw. The 8♦ turn left him a card away from a double up, but Garcia spiked the J♠ on the river to make his flush and send Kesidis to the rail.

Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Ran Ilani three-bet out of the small blind to 265,000 and button raiser Daniel Pidun called for them to see the K♣5♣3♥ flop. Ilani's continuation bet of 150,000 was raised to 375,000 by Pidun. Ilani then used one time bank and three-bet to 850,000. Pidun wasted little time to move all-in with the covering stack and Ilani called.

Ran Ilani: K♥J♣ All in
Daniel Pidun: A♣7♣

Ilani sighed vividly when he saw the flush draw, but held on the 10♦ turn as well as the 7♥ river. His double was for 1,345,000 and that put a major dent into Pidun's stack.

Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Timofey Asmolov raised the button to 115,000 and Teemu Jaatinen called from the big blind.

Jaatinen led out for 75,000 on the 5♣8♥6♣ flop and was met by a raise to 350,000 from Asmolov. Jaatinen stuck in the call.

Jaatinen led out for a second time when the A♦ fell on the turn, this time for 290,000. Asmolov thought for a while, then jammed for 1,150,000. Jaatinen instantly called with the covering stack.

Timofey Asmolov: A♥7♣ All in
Teemu Jaatinen: A♣8♦

Jaatinen was ahead with aces-up, but Asmolov had a straight draw with one card to come. The dealer burned a card, then delivered the Q♣ on the river, and all of Asmolov's stack was sent over to Jaatinen

Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Artem Kobylynskyi raised to 80,000 and Ivan Tikhov three-bet jammed for 560,000. It folded back to Kobylynskyi and he agonised over the decision to then eventually call.

Ivan Tikhov: K♥10♥ All in
Artem Kobylynskyi: K♦Q♠

"Oh shit," Tikhov instantly said when he saw Kobylynskyi with the superior kicker. The board ran out K♠9♦2♦K♣9♥ and they chopped it up, Tikhov sat back down with the words "lucky me".

Lulei Hu then opened to 90,000. He faced the all-in of Marco Di Persio for 790,000 on the button and Teemu Jaatinen called in the next seat, Hu folded.

Marco Di Persio: A♠K♠ All in
Teemu Jaatinen: 10♠10♥

The A♣8♥5♦ flop improved Di Persio and Hu cried "not like that". Nozhing changed with the 9♦ turn and 6♦ river for Di Persio to double much to the delight of his Italian rail.

Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Marco Di Persio made it 80,000 from early position and Teemu Jaatinen called from the hijack. Yuhan Wang squeezed all in for 935,000 from the button, forcing Di Persio to fold. Jaatinen, however, made the call to try to bust Wang.

Yuhan Wang: A♦Q♣ All in
Teemu Jaatinen: 7♦7♠

Wang took a commanding lead in the flip by pairing his queen on the 3♥5♦Q♠ flop. Wang improved to two pair on the A♥ turn and stayed ahead through the 4♣ river, earning himself the double-up.

Wang commented, "It was always a sweat against sevens," then went on to mention how he spiked a one-outer with sevens on the river yesterday while on the stream.

Jaatinen Takes From Gallitzendoerfer

Christian Zetzsche

Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

With some 800,000 in the middle to the K♠7♥6♦3♦ turn, Teemu Jaatinen bet 335,000 from under the gun and Bastian Gallitzendoerfer then called on the button. That led to the K♣ on the river when Jaatinen's thirty second count down expired twice before he eventually declared a bet of 1,000,000.

Marco Di Persio spoke up during that period moments before Gallitzendoerfer folded and then complained that the Finn should have given the two time bank extensions to the dealer while the hand was going on. The floor was called briefly while Jaatinen remained very calm and collected the pot.
