Dario Sammartino opened for 18,000 from the hijack and was met by a three-bet to 60,000 by Dominik Nitsche in the small blind. Ole Schemion then put in a four-bet to 123,000 from the big, Sammartino folded, and Nitsche thought for a bit before five-betting all in for approximately 320,000. Schemion made the call.
"Ace-king," Nitsche said. "Three ways to play them."
Nitsche:
Schemion:
It was a flip, but Nitsche was the one that needed to improve to stay alive. The flop didn't do it, and neither did the turn. Nitsche snapped his fingers together and pointed at the board — a gesture designed to will his card — but the dealer did not obey and instead put out the useless .
With that, Nitsche hit the rail and Schemion chipped up to 1.1 million.
Day 2 of the 2015 PokerStars.com EPT Season 12 Prague €50,000 Super High Roller is structured to be a bit fluid. First, and unlike Day 1, there will be a dinner break, which will take place after Level 14 and last for 75 minutes.
Second, the day will finish either after 10 levels have been played (AKA after Level 18) or when the final table of eight is reached (which is also the money bubble). Only time will tell which will come first, but we'll be here every step of the way.
Dario Sammartino opened to 18,000 from the hijack and Vladimir Troyanovskiy in the big blind was the only caller. Troyanovskiy check called a bet of 12,000 on and checked again on the turn. Sammartino checked behind and the popped up on the river. Troyanovskiy bet out 28,000 and Sammartino reluctantly called. Troyanovskiy showed the and Sammartino mucked.
Daniel Dvoress checked on the flop and then called the 20,000 bet from Frenchman Sylvain Loosli from his seat in the cutoff.
There was similar action on the turn, where Dvoress check-called a 52,000 bet from Loosli. Dvoress checked for a third time on the river and faced a 90,000 bet. After 90-seconds or so of deliberation, Dvoress put his calling chips over the line.
Loosli: for nothing
Dvoress: for a pair of queens and the pot.
The action was on Timothy Adams in middle position and he bet his 123,000 stack. The active players folded in turn, leaving Adams to win the blinds and antes.
David Peters raised from the cutoff to 18,000 and Fedor Holz called from his direct left after which Alexandr Denisov called in the big blind. The flop came down and Denisov checked to Peters who bet 33,000 and only Holz called.
The turn brought the and Peters fired another 70,000, which was called by his German opponent.
On the river the hit and now Peters checked to Holz, who put him all in. Peters snap-called for 251,000 total, and Holz showed his before Peters quickly claimed the pot with for the nuts.
The action folded to Andres Munoz in the small blind, and the Spanish pro raised enough to put Argentinian Ivan Luca all in in the big blind. Luca tanked for several minutes, but ultimately he made the call.
