Mustafov Triples, Kronwitter Busts in Massive Three-Way All In

David Salituro

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Fahredin Mustafov, Dmitrij Fadeev, and Jonas Kronwitter went three-handed to a flop of 2♣J♥6♦ when Mustafov moved all in for around 95,000 in the big blind, Fadeev reshoved in the small blind, and Kronwitter tanked for several minutes before calling off his last 400,000.

Fahredin Mustafov: K♠Q♠Q♦7♠
Jonas Kronwitter: 6♣5♣4♦3♠
Dmitrij Fadeev: Q♥J♣10♥7♣

"Wow, wow, wow. Sick spot," tablemate Ryan Oliver said upon seeing the cards. Mustafov was ahead with his pair of queens, Fadeev had a pair of jacks, while Kronwitter had straight draws.

The board ran out A♠2♦ and Mustafov's queens were enough to earn him a triple up. Kronwitter missed his draws and was sent to the rail by Fadeev in the side pot.

"Nice hand, both of you guys. That was massive," Oliver added.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Heads-up on a flop of Q♥K♦J♠, Lautaro Guerra bet 50,000 from middle position and Joao Estanislau called in the small blind.

The turn came the 7♥ and Guerra bet another 80,000. Estanislau again called and both players checked the 8♦ river.

Estanislau turned over K♠K♥J♦5♦ for a set of kings and Guerra mucked.

A few hands earlier, Estanislau was heads-up with Martin Kabrhel on a board of Q♦7♣Q♣10♣8♠ and already more than 250,000 in the middle.

Estanislau put out a bet of 275,000 and Kabrhel folded. "Queens? You never bluff," Kabrhel asked him after the hand.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Shenghe Yang and Juergen Pollack had just played a pot at this table where Pollack shoved for 253,000 on the flop and Yang called, but both players finished with kings and fours to split the pot.

Shortly afterward, August Schlegl and Holger Jakubowski went to the turn on a board of 9♣4♣5♦K♠ where Schlegl bet 50,000 in the small blind. Jakubowski then moved all in for 213,000 in middle position and Schlegl called with Q♣J♥10♠9♦.

Jakubowski had A♥K♥K♦2♥ for a set, but the Q♦ river gave Schlegl a straight and the bustout.

"Bye, bye," Jakubowski said to the table as he made his exit.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Three ways to the Q♦J♦5♣ flop, Vasileios Chatzilazarou and Fabian Riebau-Schmithals checked. Only the former then called a bet worth 75,000 by Mustafa Biz and jammed the 4♠ turn, Biz called for the 140,000 he had behind.

Mustafa Biz: J♣J♠10♦9♥
Vasileios Chatzilazarou: K♦K♥3♦2♥

Chatzilazarou had straight and flush outs at his disposal but the 5♠ river only improved Biz to a full house.

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Marco Di Persio recalled a hand in which he boosted his stack significantly. According to the Italian, he opened to 15,000 with A♦KxJ♦9x and Denis Vladimirov three-bet to 45,000 on the button for Di Persio to call.

He then check-called three barrels for 55,000 on the AxKx9x flop, 145,000 on the 2♦ turn and 300,000 on the 6♥ river. Vladimirov showed QxQ♥8♥7♥ for air and lost a lot of his chips.

On the neighbouring table, Vasyl Pidhrushnyi showed proof that he had used his one time against Thanh Trung Tran in a preflop all-in. Pidhrushnyi got it in with the A♥Q♣J♣7♥ on the button and Tran held the K♦K♠9♠7♠ in the cutoff.

The board ran out A♣K♣10♥A♦A♠ and the roller coaster runout gave Pidhrushnyi quads.

On the same table, Emily Perrinjaquet was all-in for 100,000 with the Q♦Q♥10♥2♣ on the K♠J♣9♠ flop. Benjamin Alacam had the K♦K♥J♠6♦ for top set but bricked the 7♥ turn and 10♠ river.

Alacam was then all-in preflop, and so was Tran as both were looked up by Thiago Silva De Morgado.

Benjamin Alacam: K♦10♠5♥4♥
Thanh Trung Tran: A♣K♠10♥6♥
Thiago Silva De Morgado: 9♦8♥6♠4♠

The 8♠7♦6♦7♣J♠ board gave Alacam a straight for the triple up while Tran was eliminated in the side pot.

Marek Uharcek: 9♥7♠6♦5♦
Joao Estanislau: 10♥8♣7♥5♥

Uharcek was ahead with two pair while Estanislau was on a straight draw. The 10♦ turn gave Estanislau a better two pair and the lead heading to the 4♣ river, which moved Uharcek back in front with a straight and secured him a double up.

Samuel Fuller: A♥K♥5♦3♦
Christoph Helmers: 10♥10♣6♣6♥

Fuller needed diamonds, hearts or an ace to survive but the 2♠ river was a blank to send the Canadian to the rail.
