Frohli Scoops a Huge Pot Against Bezhanyan

Kai Cocklin

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

The action was picked up with Aren Bezhanyan having a reraise of 82,000 in front of him from early position, which Andreas Frohli called from the cutoff.

On the flop of 5♣6♥6♠, Bezhanyan made a bet of 28,000, which Frohli called.

A 9♦ dropped on the turn and Bezhanyan slowed down with a check after around a minute of thinking, then Frohli fired 49,000. Bezhanyan went back into the tank then announced that he was all in, which gave Frohli a decision for his 90,000 behind. It wasn't much of a decision for Frohli as he quickly put in the call, which left him at risk.

Andreas Frohli: Q♠Q♦ All in
Aren Bezhanyan: A♠K♥

Bezhanyan surely was pleased to know he had outs, but he only had one shot to hit them. The table remained silent as the 2♣ rolled off on the river, which earned Frohli a huge double-up as the tournament edged closer to the bubble.

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Joseph Mouawad got his final 18,000 in preflop from middle position. Zhendong Li shoved from the small blind holding the covering stack with only Ildar Tashliyev to get through in the big blind. After looking at his cards, Tashliyev called for his last 55,000.

Joseph Mouawad: A♥K♠ All in
Ildar Tashliyev: 10♠10♥ All in
Zhendong Li: A♠4♦

Li needed a miracle to send both to the rail. However, the board ran out Q♦8♠J♣J♠5♣ keeping Tashliyev's pocket tens ahead the whole way. Mouawad was out, and Tashliyev had more than doubled up.

Nemanja Lukovic raised to 8,000 from under the gun and Marte Sandberg called on the button.

The 2♦Q♠8♠ flop checked through to the K♦ turn and the 3♦ river. Lukovic made a small wager of 6,000 and Sandberg called.

Lukovic rolled over A♣8♣ for third pair, more than enough to take down this pot.

With around 65,000 in the middle, the board read 9♠10♣10♦2♥2♣. Stoyan Obreshkov was in the big blind and put out a bet of 57,500. Andrei Spataru, who was seated on the button thought it over for a while before reluctantly making the call.

Obreshkov turned over K♣10♠ for a full house, tens full of deuces, and Spataru mucked his cards.

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Samuel Dray was all-in for his 70,000 from early position with Rosen Apostolov making the call to try and bust him near to the money.

Samuel Dray: A♥Q♥ All in
Rosen Apostolov: Q♠Q♦

Dray asked the dealer for an ace, but instead they put out the flop of 5♥4♣6♥ to give Dray a flush draw. The 7♥ came on the turn to have Apostolove drawing dead to Dray's flush as an inconsequential A♠ hit the river.
