Lots of Jamming; No Calling

Christian Zetzsche

Level 21 : 30,000/60,000, 7,500 ante

Timothy "Tim0thee" Adams earned three pots without showdown to push his stack to more than 1.4 million and Bert "girafganger7" Stevens raise-folded against the three-bet-shove of chip leader Matthias "iambest2" Eibinger.

One hand later, "hello_totti" raised to 124,800 on the button, and Mikita "fish2013" Badziakouski three-bet all-in for more than 1.9 million, which brought no further resistance.

Daniel "SmilleThHero" Smiljkovic repeated his button jam into two shorter stacks of the previous period to get through with it and Mike "SirWatts" Watson then jammed his button to scoop the blinds and antes.

Fast forward to the next hand, Adams raised the button to 132,000 and now it was up to Stevens to jam the small blind. Once again, no call followed.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 21 : 30,000/60,000, 7,500 ante

The UK's Conor "1_conor_b_1" Beresford was first to act and raised to 180,000 with fewer than that behind.

Beresford called and the cards were turned over.

More for Smiljkovic Against "hello_totti"

Christian Zetzsche

Level 20 : 25,000/50,000, 6,000 ante

From under the gun, "hello_totti" raised to 104,000 and was called only by Daniel "SmilleThHero" Smiljkovic from two seats over. The duo checked the flop and "hello_totti" tested the waters on the turn with a bet of 100,000. Smiljkovic was having none of it and raised to 400,000, which won the pot right there.

Beresford Even Shorter

Christian Zetzsche

Level 20 : 25,000/50,000, 6,000 ante

Table short stack Conor "1_conor_b_1" Beresford min-raised to 100,000 and "hello_totti" in the cutoff three-bet to 175,000, which Beresford called after some consideration. The Brit checked the flop and bet of 95,800 by "hello_totti" shut down any further resistance of Beresford.

One hand later, Daniel "SmilleThHero" Smiljkovic simply open-jammed his button into two shorter stacks and claimed the blinds and ante. He would do so again the next hand and Beresford forfeited his big blind to drop to fewer than seven big blinds.
