Floppin' sets in three-bet pots

After a raise from George Kitsios and a call from Hannes "BlackFortuna" Speiser, Patrick Leonard (on his second bullet, three-bet to 16,800 from the small blind. Rahul Byrraju cold-called from the big blind, enticing Kitsios and Speiser to peel a flop as well.

With {8-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} appearing, it was Kitsios who bet 34,320 after two checks. Speiser called, and Byrraju called as well. On the {6-Hearts} turn, Byrraju checked, Kitsios shoved for 70,240, Speiser called all in for 39,281, and Byrraju folded.

George Kitsios: {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
Hannes "BlackFortuna" Speiser: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

Speiser was drawing stone dead, making the {k-Clubs} river a mere formality.

Suited Ace Does It for Salter

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 150 ante

Samuel Vousden raised to 2,500 in the cutoff and Jack Salter three-bet to 11,500 in the small blind. Pavlo Kolinkovskyi four-bet to 28,000 in the big blind and Vousden got out of the way.

Jack Salter: {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Pavlo Kolinkovskyi: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}

Salter flopped two aces on an {a-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} flop and rivered a three for good measure to knock out Kolinkovskyi.

At the end of the first level, Patrick Leonard made it 1,760 under the gun and Scott Margereson three-bet to 5,600. Leonard called to see the {10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop fall. Leonard then check-raised a bet of 3,340 to 14,960 and Margereson called.

On the {5-Hearts} turn, Leonard bet 15,083 and Margereson called another street. The river was the {7-Diamonds} and Leonard shipped it in, only to be snap-called by Margereson with {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for almost all of his remaining stack. Leonard mucked {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades} and was left with dust.

Aces for Malinowski
Aces for Malinowski

Wiktor Malinowski has become the first player to stick 25% of the buy-in back in his pocket as he took down "Apowers1968" in the process. After a raise from Thomas Muehloecker and a three-bet from "Apowers1968", Malinowski four-bet to 13,760 and got "Apowers1968" along for a call.

The {2-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} flop saw Malinowski continue for 7,360 and "Apowers1968" call. Both players checked the {q-Clubs} on the turn to see the {6-Diamonds} river appear. Malinowski simply shipped it in and "Apowers1968" called off 66,362 with {k-Spades}{q-Spades}. Malinowski, however, had {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} to win and capture his first scalp.
