Christian Zetzsche

Level 31 : Blinds 10,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Jon Kyte raised to 300,000 and then folded when Francesco Delfoco three-bet to 2,300,000 in the small blind with some 300,000 behind.

Kyte defended his big blind next against Antony Marchetti, who had opened to 350,000 in the cutoff. The flop was checked by Kyte and he came along once Marchetti bet 175,000. Kyte then led the turn for 350,000 but folded to a shove.

That sent the Norwegian back to just ten blinds and he limped the small blind next, Hugo Bohn checked his option in the big blind. Following a flop, Kyte bet 150,000 and Bohn raised to 375,000. A reraise to 600,000 by Kyte forced out Bohn.
