Like Father, Like Son

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Goran Mandic opened to 4,200 from the cutoff, Andrey Gulyy three-bet to 11,000 out of the small blind, and Mandic responded with a four-bet to 25,700.

While Gulyy was in the tank, his father Yury wandered over from an adjacent table to sweat his son.

"All in," Andrey said, grabbing all of his blue T5,000 chips.

Mandic snap-mucked, and the younger Gulyy shipped the pot.

Kamel Can't Catch

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Tamer Kamel's stack has mostly followed an upward trajectory today, but he just hit a downward section.

He was heads-up to the turn of a {6-Spades}{j-Spades}{q-Spades}{9-Clubs} board and around 50,000 had migrated to the warm patch in the centre of the table. His opponent in the hand was Mohamed Mamouni and he moved all in for 59,600 from the button.

Kamel tanked for several minutes before he called with {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} for two pair. He was in deep trouble though as Mamouni had flopped a flush with {7-Spades}{9-Spades}. The {a-Clubs} river failed to come to the Brit's rescue.

Fox: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Latz: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}

The board ran {2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} failing to find a three-outer for Fox.

Gavriilidis and Torelli Tangle Twice

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Panagiotis Gavriilidis opened to 4,200 from the hijack seat, Alec Torelli three-bet to 11,100 on the button, and Gavriilidis called. The flop fell {5-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}, Gavriilidis checked, and Torelli fired out 9,000. Gavriilidis called.

The turn was the {7-Hearts}, both players checked, and the {4-Hearts} completed the board. The two checked again, and Torelli announced that he had a seven. Gavriilidis mucked, and Torelli showed {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}.

The very next hand, Gavriilidis opened to 4,200, and Torelli called. The dealer fanned {q-Spades}{10-Spades}{k-Hearts}, Gavriilidis continued for 6,000, and Torelli folded.
