Geilich On the Comeback Trail
![[user252447]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Ludovic Geilich called a 5,000 bet from Pierre Merlin on the flop of a board reading 
. They went on to check the turn card 
and the river card 
. Merlin mucked his cards and Geilich collected the pot without having to show his cards.
On the next hand Artem Litvinov opened for 900 and Merlin made the call from the small blind. Geilich bumped it up to 3,200 after checking Litvinov’s reduced stack and he glumly folded. Merlin made the call and they checked it down to the river of a board reading 
where Merlin bet 4,500. Geilich took fewer than five seconds to throw out a calling chip.
Merlin had 
and Geilich showed 
so they chopped it up.
From checking flights on his phone a few hours ago when he was down to 5,000 chips Geilich has fought his way back but Litvinov looks down in the dumps now his stack is just hovering above the same mark.
