Biri Shows a Deuce

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante

On a three-way flop of {3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, Hans Westin in the small blind and Balazs Biri in the big blind checked. Stanislav Ivanov bet 800 and Westin raised to 1,700. Biri made the call and Ivanov folded.

The {4-Hearts} fell on the turn and Westin check-folded to a bet of 2,200 by Biri, who flashed a deuce.

"I had ace-five but knew you had a deuce," Ivanov said on his way out as the first break of the day just started.

[Removed:552] Arrives; Beats Kings

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante

[Removed:551] entered the field in the second level and has immediately chipped up nicely. According to the German colleagues, [Removed:552] raised to 300 and called a three-bet to 900 by Basem Hamed in the big blind. On the {j-Spades}{8-Spades}{4-Spades} flop, Hamed continued for 900 and [Removed:552] called before doing so again for 1,800 on the {6-Hearts} turn.

After the {7-Hearts} river, Hamed checked and called a bet worth 8,000 by [Removed:552] after some consideration to get shown {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for a straight and mucked his {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} face up.

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante

One hand later, Georgios Vrakas opened to 500 and Vlado Banicevic raised to 1,400, Vrakas called. The flop came {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Vrakas checked, called a bet of 1,300. On the {5-Clubs} turn, Vrakas checked once more and let go when Banicevic made it 3,000 to go.
