Livello 8 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Nacho Barbero raised to 6,000 in the cutoff and was called by Matthew Wantman on the button and small blind Ian Bradley. Aliaksandr Shylko then three-bet to 30,000 in the big blind and only Barbero called.

Shylko continued for 15,000 on the K♣8♥8♦ flop and Barbero called. Both players then checked the 2♦ turn.

The river was the 6♣ and Shylko led out for another 11,000. Barbero then raised to 60,000 and Shylko called.

Barbero turned over K♦10♦ for two pair and Shylko mucked.

Niklas Astedt took his seat at this table while this hand was in progress. Barbero congratulated Astedt on his recent run in the WSOP Main Event as Astedt then teased him about losing to Shylko in the PSPC last year.

"He's a good guy, though," Barbero said.

"You've Got to Gamble to Win"

Livello 7 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Teun Mulder opened the hijack to 5,000, Sam Grafton three-bet to 22,000 from the small blind, and Mulder four-bet jammed as the covering stack for 115,000 effective. Grafton was uncomfortable but he shrugged as he called it off.

Sam Grafton: K♥10♥ All in
Teun Mulder: A♠K♦

"Aggressive," remarked Mulder as the 5♥4♠3♦ flop was a safe one for him as his ace-king remained in the lead.

Grafton called for a heart on the turn but he got an even better card as the 10♠ peeled off and he stayed ahead on the board-completing 9♥.

The table had a laugh at Grafton's loose call-off as he defended himself, "You've got to gamble to win."
