Berggren C-Bet Takes Down Pot

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Sotirios Koutoupas was first to act on the button and he wasted no time in opening to 50,000. Sweden's Andreas Berggren was in the small blind and he three-bet, a bet that was called.

The flop came down {7-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Berggren lead out with a 157,000 bet into the 330,000 pot and after a little "Hollywooding" Koutoupas folded.

Dany Parlafes Eliminated in 15th Place (€29,000)

Dany Parlafes

Dany Parlafes has just been sent to the rail in 15th place after losing a huge coinflip with Sotirios Koutoupas.

Parlafes was under the gun and he raised to 50,000. To his immediate left was Koutoupas and he three-bet to 125,000. Koutoupas has been playing tightly and his rare three-bet forced folds from everyone at the table except Parlafes who went deep into the tank.

Parlafes stayed in the tank for almost 90 seconds before moving all-in for 958,000. Koutoupas called and put his Romanian opponent at risk.

Koutoupas: {A-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Parlafes: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}

The {10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop was safe for Parlafes' queens, as was the {6-Clubs} turn. The {k-Diamonds} river certainly wasn't safe because it improved Koutoupas to a hand-winning pair of king and eliminated Parlafes.

Gonzalez Is Putting On A Show

Diego Gomez Gonzalez
Diego Gomez Gonzalez

Ben Warrington opened for 50,000 from early position and received a call from Aleh Plauski in the cutoff. "Raise," Diego Gomez Gonzalez said with gusto when action reached him in the small blind. He then made it 162,000 to go, both his opponents called, and it was three-way action to the {3-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop.

The bespectacled Gonzalez wasted little time in firing out a bet of 188,000, Warrington folded, and Plauski made the call. "All in," Gonzalez loudly announced after the dealer had burned and turned the {J-Spades}. This time it was enough as Plauski send his cards to the muck.

Herm Staying Agressive

Mark Herm is a very aggressive player. Maybe his opponents have picked up on this as some of his many opens have been three-bet forcing him to fold. He did just win a pot though without showdown.

He defended his big blind after a raise from Aleh Plauski. The flop fell {j-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and Herm led out for 52,000. Call. Both players checked the {q-Hearts} turn before the American led out again, for 52,000, on the {k-Clubs} river. Plauski let him have it and folded.

Feature Table Slows Down

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Since the redraw for the final two tables was made, the action seems to have dried up, especially on the feature table. Most pots are being settled preflop, and hands that do make it to the flop are being won with a standard continuation bet.

Team PokerStars Pro Johnny Lodden is by far the most active player at the table though; he is splashing around and trying to make something happen. Fifteen players remain.
