Lewis Wins A Big One

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Dmitry Gromov limped in from the small blind, and tossed in a single 100,000 chip extra as his neighbor Toby Lewis raised to 160,000.

Gromov check called a 150,000 bet on {2-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}, and check called another 350,000 on the {K-Hearts}-turn after some hefty thinking.

The river came the {4-Diamonds} and Gromov checked for a third time. Lewis,with about a million left, bet 600,000.

Gromov snap called by tossing in some 5,000 chips, but had to add the rest not much later as Lewis showed {A-Spades}{J-Spades}. Gromov showed the {J-Diamonds} and mucked.

"Biggest Bluff Of My Life!"

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Alexander Lakhov opened for 125,000 under the gun, and Ori Miller three-bet to 260,000 from the cutoff.

Lakhov made the call, and lead out for 275,000 on {8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. Miller made the call.

The turn brought the {5-Diamonds} to the table, and Lakhov checked. Miller bet 380,000, but had to fold to Lakhov's push.

"Biggest Bluff Of My Life!" laughed Lakhov. We'll know in a little while when the hand is broadcasted on the live stream.

Lakhov Takes a Remarkable Line

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Alexander Lakhov limped in from the button, Ori Miller folded, Nicolas Chouity checked.

Both players checked the {10-Spades}{8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} board, and the {K-Spades} fell on the turn. Chouity now bet out 90,000, and Lakhov raised it up to 275,000. Chouity called.

The river came the {8-Hearts} and Chouity checked. Lakhov bet 300,000, Chouity called after some thinking.

Lakhov opened {Q-Spades}{9-Spades} with some frustration, for the missed straight and flush draw. Chouity tabled {10-Hearts}{J-Spades} and took it down.

"I miss river" said Lakhov. "I missed a straight flush draw yesterday" said Chouity as some weird sort of consolidation.
