Simon Four-Bets Again; Trey Good for Dato
Level 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Gilles Simon opened to 200,000 from the cutoff before Priit Parmasto made it 550,000 from the button. Gilles used a time bank before making it 1,300,000 and then Parmasto opted to fold after using a time bank of his own.
"That one, I could not play friendly," commented Simon.
The following hand, Bjorn Kozenkai opened to 200,000 from the button and called when Andrea Dato made it 775,000 from the big blind.
Kozenkai called for 350,000 on the 9♠9♦3♦ flop before the 7♥ turn and J♣ river checked through to showdown.
Dato tabled K♠3♥ for nines and treys. Kozenkai couldn't beat that and dejectedly mucked his cards.
