Dan O'Hair

Level 3 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Hen Rosilio opened to 1,800 first-to-act and was called by Aaron Duczak from middle position, James Chen on the button, Hoai Nguyen in the small blind and Jerry Oedeen in the big blind for a five-way pot.

Everyone checked to Chen on the Q♣2♠8♠ flop and he bet 5,000. Only Oedeen called.

Both players checked on the Q♥ turn, but Oedeen fired 16,500 into the middle when the 5♦ completed the board. Chen decided to look him up and Oedeen tabled Q♣J♣8x4x for queens-full of eights. Chen sent his hand into the muck and Oedeen collected the pot.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Samuel Albeck and Niklas Astedt were heads-up on a 3♦2♣Q♣ flop with several thousand already in the middle.

Albeck bet enough to put Astedt all in for around 50,000 from the small blind and Astedt called off the rest of his chips from the big blind.

Niklas Astedt: A♠K♥Q♦J♥
Samuel Albeck: K♣Q♠8♣7♦

Astedt held the lead, but would need to fade a bevy of outs to double up.

The 10♥ turn was safe for Astedt, but the A♣ river filled Albeck’s flush draw and Astedt was sent to re-enter.

Daniel Birkmose opened to 1,500 from the hijack and Niklas Astedt, now on his second bullet, three-bet to 5,000 from the cutoff. Birkmose made the call.

Both players checked the 10♥8♥7♠ flop leading to the K♣ turn. Birkmose check-called an 8,000 bet from Astedt.

Birkmose checked again on the 2♠ turn and Astedt bet 25,000 which was enough to force a fold from his opponent.

With two players seeing a board of Q♥A♥Q♦8♥ and roughly 33,000 already in the middle, Omar Eljach bet 30,400 from the small blind and Arturo Paduano called in the cutoff.

The river came the 3♣ and Eljach bet again for 81,000. Paduano thought for roughly one minute before making the call.

Hen Rosilio opened to 1,600 from middle position and was called by Aaron Duczak in the hijack and Oliver Bolwerk in the big blind.

All three players checked on the 8♥K♥7♣ flop and then Bolwerk bet 3,500 on the A♣ turn. Only Rosilio called.

Bolwerk put 7,000 into the middle when the 2♠ completed the board, which got a fold from Rosilio after a bit of thought.

Elsewhere, Ren Lin was seen taking his seat.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Hok Lee raised to 1,500 on the button and was called by Kalle Persson in the big blind.

Persson checked to Lee on the K♠Q♠K♣ flop and he continued for 1,000. Persson then check-raised to 3,000 and Lee called.

The J♥ fell on the turn and Persson checked to Lee, who bet 5,000. Persson called.

Both players opted to check on the Q♦ river and Persson tabled what appeared to be trip kings with an ace kicker. Lee showed 10♣10♠9♠2♣ for a straight and was sent the pot.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Alexander Norden opened to 2,000 from the hijack and Ren Lin defended from the big blind.

The flop came A♥7♣5♦ and Lin check-called a 4,900 continuation bet from Norden.

Lin check-called another bet from Norden on the 10♥ turn, this time for 14,700.

On the Q♣ river Lin changed gears, leading out with a bet of 44,100 which sent Norden into the tank.

After approximately three minutes Norden flicked in the call. Lin tabled A♦4♠4♣3♠ for top pair turned into a bluff while Norden showed down A♠K♣10♠7♥ for two pair to take down a sizable pot.
