Cards are in the air on Day 1a of the $1,100 Eureka Main Event.
Okan Kurumoglu on the button opened to 300, and he was only called by Svetlin Saber in the small blind.
On 2♥10♦K♣, Kurumoglu's continuation bet to 400 was called again. But the A♥ on the turn froze the action as both players checked.
The 8♣ landed on the river, and Sabev took the lead betting 1,000. Kurumoglu raised to 2,500, and made Sabev fold.

Winner of the €1,100 Estrellas Poker Tour Main Event during EPT Barcelona in August, Lucien Cohen is in the field and has already eliminated a player.
From the hijack, he opened to 300, then was raised to 1,600 by Azamat Tulepbergenov in the cutoff. Cohen called, and discovered a 6♣4♠J♣ flop.
Tulepbergenov, bet 2,000, but Cohen raised to 6,500. Then Tulepbergenov moved all in with the starting stack, and Cohen called.
Azamat Tulepbergenov: Q♣Q♥
Lucien Cohen: J♠J♦
Cohen hit a set on the flop, and it held after the turn 2♥ and the river 9♠. "I knew he had a big pair. I even thought he had aces," Cohen said, while Tulepbergenov was leaving the tournament area.
