Davies Chips Up Through Kelopuro

Level 36 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante

Several medium-sized pots emerged early in the new level without causing any major changes.

Seth Davies then raised to 240,000 and Sami Kelopuro called in the big blind. On the {8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop, Kelopuro opted to check-call for 384,000 and did so again for another 480,000 on the {k-Diamonds} turn. The {a-Spades} river was checked and Kelopuro tabled {j-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} for a pair of eights.

Davies had that beat with {q-Clubs}{q-Spades} to pull ahead of the Finn.

Nemeth and Fox Chip Up

Level 35 : 50,000/100,000, 12,500 ante

Elio Fox chipped up after he defended the big blind and then bet the {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{j-Spades} turn for 225,000.

Andras Nemeth was his opponent in that hand and raised to 210,000 once more, Sami Kelopuro filled up in the hijack. On the {q-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop, both players checked and saw the {9-Hearts} turn for free. Nemeth bet 328,750 to receive a call and the {10-Hearts} river brought no action.

Nemeth tabled {j-Clubs}{10-Spades}, which made a superior pair versus {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}.

Fox then earned three pots in a row and Davies three-bet jammed against Niklas Astedt to take it down.
