Cimbolas' Cowboys Prove No Match to Kanit's Rockets

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 150 ante

Mustapha Kanit opened for 2,200 from under the gun before he called a three-bet by Matas Cimbolas to 9,900 from the small blind.

Cimbolas fired out for 15,500 on the {q-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts} flop and got a call. Cimbolas jammed for 69,340 on the {7-Spades} turn and once again was called.

Matas Cimbolas: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Mustapha Kanit: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

It was a huge cooler for Cimbolas running cowboys into rockets and the {q-Diamonds} river pairing the board provided no relief. Kanit collected his first bounty of the tournament while Cimbolas is onto his third bullet just before the start of Level 3.

Reeves Ousts Satubayev

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 150 ante

Lucas Reeves opened for 6,323 from the cutoff before they called a three-bet by Shyngis Satubayev in the small blind to 16,600.

Satubayev check-called a bet of 9,313 on the {j-Spades}{9-Spades}{j-Diamonds} flop before both players checked the {6-Hearts} turn.

Satubayev jammed the {3-Diamonds} river for 44,907 and got some bad news after Reeves quickly called. Satubayev had a nice hand with {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} but Reeves flopped the goods with {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for a full house to eliminate Satubayev and collect his bounty. Satubayev didn't stay on the rail long and immediately re-entered after the hand.

Holz Chips Up

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 150 ante

Ramiro Petrone opened to 2,000 from the hijack. Fedor Holz three-bet to 9,625 from the big blind and Petrone called.

Holz fired out for 7,285 on the {5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop and got a call. The same pattern emerged on the {8-Hearts} turn with Holz betting 10,656 this time and Petrone once again calling.

The {j-Diamonds} completed the board on the river. Holz used a bit of his time bank before he bet 17,050. Petrone used some of his clock before he folded to give Holz the pot.

Vieira Collects First Bounty

Level 1 : 400/800, 120 ante

"kle888" opened for 2,000 from the button. Joao Vieira three-bet to 10,000 from the big blind. "kle888" used some of his clock before he four-bet to 28,400.

Vieira then used some of his time bank before jamming for 119,160. "kle888" called off for 86,880 in total and the players turned over their cards.

kle888: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Joao Vieira: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}

The {k-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} board gave "kle888" a pair but they were ousted as this wasn't good enough to beat Vieira's rockets.

Vieira became the first player to collect a bounty of $2,500, half of which goes straight to his GGPoker account and the other half increasing his personal bounty.
