Sychov Hero Calls Hulme

Frank Visser

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

A completed board of 9♦5♦J♣Q♣2♥ was spread on the table when Andrew Hulme shoved his stack of 54,300 in the middle from the small blind.

His opponent was Artur Sychov in early position, who asked the dealer to spread the 65,000 chip pot to get a better look at it. Shortly thereafter, the clock was called, but Sychov stuck in a call before the floor arrived at the table.

Hulme showed down J♥9♥ for two pair while Sychov was forced to show his 10♥10♦ for a pair of tens. Hulme doubled his already healthy stack to almost 150 big blinds, grabbing a significant chip lead on his table.

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

In a blind versus blind confrontation, the pot stood at approximately 13,200, with two players looking at a board of 10♠7♠A♦10♥.

Gergo Szabo, in the small blind, bet out for what looked to be 1,500. Maksym Filipovskyi, in the big blind, raised to 3,500 and Szabo made the call.

The 9♠ river checked to a showdown. Szabo tabled A♠Q♣ for two pair; good enough to see Filipovskyi's cards into the muck.

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Patrick Berger was all in preflop for 31,000 against Yossi Eluz, who had him well covered as players flipped their cards.

Patrick Berger: A♥Q♥
Yossi Eluz: A♣J♣

The board ran out K♠5♥6♣2♥5♣. Neither player improved on the board, so both were playing the pair of fives with their ace high kicker. Berger had the queen kicker along with it to win the pot and double his stack, leaving Eluz short with just 4,000 behind.

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Marco Meisser opened to 2,500 from under the gun, receiving a call from Emmanouil Asgoudakis, in the small blind.

The 6♦8♠9♣ flop checked through to the 3♦ on the turn. Asgoudakis bet out for 3,000 and Meisser made the call.

The river landed the 4♣ and the hand checked to a showdown. Asgoudakis tabled 10♣9♠ for top pair, good enough to win this pot.

Mustafov's Double-Up Leaves Two Players Short

Frank Visser

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Fahredin Mustafov was down to just 6,000 chips, which he pushed in from the hijack. Fehim Hajdari was the only caller, on the button, and the pair showed down.

Fahredin Mustafov: J♥J♦
Fehim Hajdari: A♠6♠

"Good luck," Hajdari wished his opponent.

"Good luck to you, not to me," Mustafov responded.

Mustafov indeed did not need luck to hold on the 10♥Q♣7♠3♠4♦ board, doubling him up to roughly 12 big blinds, while Hajdari was left with a little less than that.

Player	Chips	Progress
Fahredin Mustafov	15,000
