Saffran Forces a Fold From Zizka

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante

Robert Saffran opened to 1,300 from the hijack and was three-bet to 3,600 by Zdenek Zizka on the button. Action folded back around to Saffran, who four-bet to 7,800. Zizka called.

The flop came J1010 and Saffran quickly shoved, which was enough to put Zizka all in for his last 13,000. Zizka let his hand go and Saffran dragged the pot.

Kneitinger Wins Race to Eliminate Sitbon

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Daniel Kneitinger opened to 1,300 from the cutoff and just behind him, Julien Sitbon shoved for around 10,000 on the button. Action folded back around to Kneitinger, who called to put Sitbon at risk.

Julien Sitbon: 88
Daniel Kneitinger: AQ

It was a virtual coin flip, but the QJ745 runout left Kneitinger best with a pair of queens — eliminating Sitbon from contention.

Two in a Row for Algeri

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Samantha Algeri
Samantha Algeri

With three players seeing a board of 86105 and just over 15,000 already in the middle, Samantha Algeri bet 5,400 from early position and received calls from Jakub Koleckar from middle position and Ilija Savevski in the cutoff.

All three players checked the Q river. Algeri showed down 109 for second pair and seemed surprised when both of her opponents mucked.

The next hand saw Algeri open to 1,100 from early position and receive calls from Stephan Kribben on the button, Dragoljub Martinovic in the small blind and Jan Tichacek in the big blind.

The flop came KJ10 and action checked around to Algeri who fired a 2,200 continuation bet. Kribben folded, Martinovic called and Tichacek folded.

On the 3 turn Algeri bet again when checked to for 4,400 and this time Martinovic opted to fold.

Sabatino Pays Pedersen Off

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Heads up on a 6109 flop with several thousand already in the middle, Vincent Pedersen checked from middle position to Leonardo Sabatino, who bet 2,600 from the hijack. Pedersen called.

Both players checked on the 4 turn and then Pedersen bet 6,000 when the 7 completed the board. Sabatino tanked for a bit, but eventually decided to call.

Pedersen tabled QQ for an overpair, which got a muck from Sabatino to send Pedersen the pot.
