Deilik Cracks Dai's Aces

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

A player in early position raised to 1,600, Henadzi Deilik three-bet to 4,800 from middle position and Ishibashi Dai cold four-bet jammed for 8,500, from the big blind. The original raiser folded and Deilik called.

Ishibashi Dai: A?A? All in
Henadzi Deilik: A?Q?

Dai was ahead but the 2?7?K? flop gave Deilik the nut flush draw. The 3? turn changed nothing, however, the 9? river propelled Deilik into the lead, cracking Dai's aces and sending him to the rail.

Insua's Kicker Earns the Pot

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Angel Insua opened 1,600 in the cutoff and he received calls from Georgi Sandev on the button, Yi Lin in the small blind and Zaki Hamani in the big blind.

All four players checked to the 10?9?7?A? turn, where the action checked to Insua, who dropped 2,700 across the line. Only Lin made the call.

When the 10? landed on the river, Lin checked and Insua took about 10 seconds before deciding to do the same. Lin tabled A?8? for two pair, and Insua rolled A?K? for his king-kicker to drag the pot.

Sheils Runs Into Kings

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

The pot had already grown to 16,400 with two players looking at a board of J?J?5?.

Brandon Sheils, in the small blind, bet out for 3,500. Marco Regonaschi, on the button, made the call.

The 6? turn saw a repeat of the action, this time Sheils sized up to 10,000.

The 4? river prompted Sheils to empty the clip, placing a bet that looked to be around 22,000, a virtual all in with 100 behind the line. Regonaschi snap-called. Sheils tabled 9?9?, while Regonaschi won this pot holding K?K?.

Avelino Leads the Flop

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Breno Avelino, in the small blind, played out of flow on the 8?5?6? flop, leading for 1,500. Jose Roman, in the big blind, raised to 3,800 and Gutierrez folded.

Avelino went into the tank before moving all in for Roman's effective stack of approximately 14,000. Roman elected to muck.

Ievchenko Forces Fold

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Oleksii Ievchenko was under the gun, while Peter Turmezey was in the cutoff and both players were seen putting 3,900 across the line before the flop.

The dealer spread a flop of 10?8?3?, and Ievchenko check-called a bet of 2,700.

When the 4? hit the turn, both players tapped the table to see the 10? on the river. Ievchenko took about 30 seconds before firing two chips across the line for a bet of 10,000. Turmezey thought about it for a few moments before surrendering the pot.

Hand Shows on the River

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Action was picked up on the flop of 9?6?2? where Arthur Thiriart checked in the big blind. Georgi Sandev checked from the hijack which prompted Fintan Hand to bet 3,000 on the button. Thrirart called and Sandev folded.

The 10? was checked around before Thrirart bet 8,500 on the river. Hand tanked for a moment before reraising all in for around 45,000. Thrirart folded quickly. "Big bet poker" declared Hand before showing the 10?. He added "this one makes it a bluff right?" before stacking up the pot.
