Ihor Samonov

Simon Forster opened to 2,000 under the gun, and received two callers, before Ihor Samonov three-bet jammed from the button for 21,400.

Ihor Samonov: QQ All in
Simon Forster: AJ

Savio Jams on Grech

Level 5 : 400/800, 800 ante

Joseph Grech opened to 1,600 under the gun, and Damir Savio defended the big blind.

Savio check-called versus a bet of 1,600 from Grech on the Q74 flop, leading to the 8 turn.

Savio checked once more, and Grech quickly fired out a bet of 4,400. Savio thought for a moment, before check-raising to 12,500. Grech made the call.

The 10 hit on the river, and Savio jammed for 33,000, just covering Grech, who quickly open-folded A6, for a whole lot of missed draws.

Unorthodox Approach Works for Melitaru

Level 4 : 300/600, 600 ante

Gustaf Soderholm opened to 1,200 from middle position, and Mihai Melitaru defended the big blind.

On the A76 flop, Melitaru led out with an overbet of 5,000, which failed to shake off Soderholm.

The Q hit on the turn, and Melitaru double-barreled with the exact same bet of 5,000. Soderholm seemed confused by the hand and folded.

Straight for Burke

Level 4 : 300/600, 600 ante
Kenny Burke
Kenny Burke

Around 24,000 had made its way into the middle, in a hand between Kenny Burke in the cutoff and Sonny Dimov in the big blind.

The board read 1087A, and Dinov check-called a bet of 11,000 from Burke, to see the 8 river.

Dinov checked once more, and Burke fired out a tempting sized bet of 15,000. Dinov took some time and ultimately made the call.

Burke tabled J9 for the flopped straight and Dinov mucked. "Nice hand, I had ace-ten", claimed Dinov.

A murmur of noise went up from Table 2, and the reason became clear after Maureen Bloechlinger had tabled AK to take down a 11,500 pot with a royal flush on Q103JA.
