Livello 28 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

In heads-up play, the flop was A♠4♣8♦ when Faraz Jaka checked and called a bet of 20,000 from Gustavo Andre Mastelotto.

On the 2♥ turn, Jaka checked again and Mastelotto sent 200,000 in the middle. Jaka tanked for a minute and called.

The river was the 10♠ and Jaka checked. Mastelotto thought about his move for some time and jammed. Jaka snap-folded.

Roller Coaster for Iermolcheva

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 28 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action folded to Simeon Spasov in the small blind, who asked for a count of Olga Iermolcheva's chips in the big blind.

After a moment of thought he went all in. Iermolcheva only took a moment to check her cards and called.

Olga Iermolcheva: A♥9♠
Simeon Spasov: J♦2♦

The full board ran out 9♦7♣6♣A♠A♦ and Iermolcheva would get the double.

The very next hand she would put another short stack in the same spot, blind versus blind, but unfortunately she would lose half her stack in the process.

The next hand after that she opened on the button and got a call from the big blind.

The 7♥6♠8♠ flop landed and her opponent opted to lead. Iermolcheva called and they saw a 2♥ turn. Her opponent led again for 80,000 and Iermolcheva quickly ripped it all in. Her opponent tanked for almost four minutes but eventually laid it down and Iermolcheva would be back up to a workable stack.

Simeon Spasov	875,000 65,000	65,000

Mingzhe Li limped in on the button. Yuri Dzivielevski raised to 60,000 from the big blind. Li called.

The Q♦9♥4♥ flop hit the felt and Dzivielevski continued for 65,000. Li then raised to 160,000, and Dzivielevski called.

The 2♦ turn slowed things down and action checked through to a 5♠ river.

Dzivielevski then took the opportunity to lead four or 125,000. Li thought it over but eventually decided to lay it down and Dzivielevski scooped, giving him a massive chip lead heads up.
