Matei Lupascu
Matei Lupascu

Matei Lupascu on the button and Boris Kuzmanovic in the small blind had created a pot of 61,500 when they went to a flop of 683. Kuzmanovic bet 30,000 and Lupascu called.

The K turn slowed down Kuzmanovic as he checked to Lupascu. Lupascu fired a small bet of 28,000, being called by Kuzmanovic.

Kuzmanovic checked to Lupascu once more on the K river, after which the rather shoved all in for 313,000, around double the size of the pot and barely covering Kuzmanovic.

Kuzmanovic asked for a count and tanked for a couple of minutes before reluctantly folding.

"Do you want to see?" Lupascu asked as he dragged in the big pot. He then showed 63 for a counterfeit two pair which he had turned into a bluff.

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Abdulaziz Al Dosari
Abdulaziz Al Dosari

Abdulaziz Al Dosari min-raised to 5,000 from under the gun and Niclas Thumm three-bet from the next seat to 15,000. When it got back to Al Dosari, he shoved for 33,000, and Thumm called.

Abdulaziz Al Dosari: KK All in
Niclas Thumm: KK

This pot looked destined for a chop but Al Dosari was delighted to see the 876 flop, as he was freerolling for the pot. A J on the turn changed nothing, but the 3 on the river completed the flush for Al Dosari, and doubled him up.
