Two in a Row for Sikora
With the board reading 9♣J♣10♦5♥ and about 4,000 already in the middle, Narciso Burlo checked and Mateusz Sikora bet 3,000, receiving a call from his opponent.
Both players checked the 9♥ river. Burlo tabled 5♣3♣ for a pair of fives and missed flush draw while Sikora tabled J♦6♦ for a flopped top pair to take the pot.
The very next hand at the same table, Sikora opened to 500 from middle position and Paul Vincent three-bet to 2,500 from the cutoff. Sikora put in a four-bet to 7,500 and Vincent made the call.
The flop came J♣9♣9♦. Sikora bet 5,000 and was called by Vincent.
Both players checked through the 3♠ turn leading to the 7♦ river. Sikora moved all in, covering his opponent's remaining stack of about 28,000. After some brief consideration Vincent folded 10♥10♦ face up and Sikora took down a sizable pot without having to go to showdown.
