Level 21 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Zizka fired a second barrel of 155,000 on the 8♥ turn. Zakharyan went into the tank and check-called once again.

Level 21 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Kumaran Sarvendran came in with a limp from the hijack. Zdenek Zizka called from the small blind and Salih Atac checked his option out of the big blind.

Zizka led out for 65,000 upon seeing K♥4♦3♥ flop. Atac called, but Sarvendran folded.

Two checks followed the 4♠ turn to see the 6♠ appear on the river. Zizka bet 125,000, and Atac immediately called.

Zizka showed a boat with Q♣9♣4♣3♠, but this was second best to Atac's A♦K♠4♥3♣ for a higher boat with fours full of kings.

Salih Atac opened to 60,000 from middle position and he was called by both players in the blinds.

The dealer fanned a flop of 3♣10♥7♠ and Atac continued for 75,000. Kumaran Sarvendran in the small blind used a time bank extension and check-raised to 240,000. The big blind folded, and Atac called. Sarvendran continued for 100,000 on the 8♠ turn. Atac called again.

Sarvendran checked the 9♥ river and let Atac bet 325,000. Sarvendran eventually chose to fold, but didn't look very happy when Atac revealed A♦A♣5♥5♦ for just a pair of aces.
