Habib Shows Down Trips

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Mark Smith opened to 14,000 from early position and Walid Bou Habib defended from the big blind.

The flop came A?J?3? and Habib check-called a 20,000 continuation bet from Smith.

Habib check-called another bet on the A? turn, this time for 33,000.

Both players checked the 2? river. Smith tabled J?10? for two pair but Habib showed down A?5? for trip aces to take the pot.

Joyce Doesn't Slow Down

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

There was an early position open to 14,000 before the action folded to Toby Joyce on the button who put in a cold three-bet to 42,000. It folded back to the original raiser who called and they were off to a flop heads up.

The 3?K?Q? flop landed and action checked to Joyce who continued with a bet of 30,000. His opponent called.

The 8? rolled off on the turn and it checked to Joyce again. This time he sat in the tank for about a minute before he put out a large bet of 115,000.

His opponent snap folded and Joyce scooped a solid pot with pure aggression.

Small Pair Does the Job for Karaliunas

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

With three players seeing a board of 3?6?3? and roughly 50,000 already in the middle, Simas Karaliunas checked in the big blind and Christos Leantzis checked from early position.

Dmitry Gromov bet 25,000 from the cutoff and received a call from Karaliunas while Leantzis made the call.

The two remaining players checked both the Q? turn and 2? river. Karaliunas tabled 5?5? which was good enough to take the pot.

Gulseven Puts in the Last Bet

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Erdal Gulseven opened in middle position to 16,000 before the action moved to Selahaddin Bedir on the button who called and Alisa Sibgatova defended her big blind.

The Q?3?A? flop hit the felt and the action checked to Gulseven who continued for 10,000. Both of his opponents called.

The 6? turn landed and the action slowed down and checked through to a 9? river.

Sibgatova checked and then Gulseven stepped back on the gas with a bet of 35,000. Unfortunately, if this was a value bet it would get no more action and Gulseven scooped after both of his opponents mucked.

Max Pressure from Smith

Mark Smith
Mark Smith

With three players seeing a board of J?7?6? and roughly 60,000 already in the middle, Robert Heidorn checked in the big blind and Oleg Netaliev checked from under the gun. Mark Smith bet 28,000 only for Heidorn to check-raise to 84,000. Netaliev got out of the way and Smith moved all in, covering Heidorn who with roughly 560,000 behind already had an above-average stack himself.

Heidorn took about 30 seconds before deciding to fold and Smith was awarded a sizable pot without having to see a flop.
