Mariam Drills Quads

Nível 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Boris Angelov opened in early position and got one call from Henok Tekle Mariam in the cutoff.

The 4♠6♥7♣ flop hit the felt and action quickly checked through to a 7♦ turn. Angelov put his foot back on the gas and bet out for 12,000. Mariam wasted little time before raising to 42,000. Angelov thought it over and put in the chips.

The A♣ river hit the felt and Angelov checked it over to Mariam who went into the tank for a few minutes before gathering enough chips to put out a 100,000 bet.

The action was back on Angelov who only thought for a few moments and then announced all in. Mariam had his chips in the middle before the words were even out of Angelov's mouth.

He didn't wait for his opponent to table 7♠7♥ for quads and the stone cold nuts. Angelov flashed 5♠6♠ for a mistimed bluff and was left with crumbs as the bubble approaches.

Khordbin Gets it in Bad at Exactly the Right Time

Nível 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Oleg Netaliev only had 4,000 remaining and opted to move in from early position. Surprisingly, it folded all the way to the small blind where Pete Chen was sitting. After only a moment he moved all in for 32,000. Hadi Khordbin was in the big blind and seemed to have a real decision on his hands. After getting a count of Chen's stack he was ready to flick in the call having both of his opponents covered.

The cards hit their backs with Chen and Netaliev all in and at risk.

Oleg Netaliev: K♥3♠
Pete Chen: K♠4♣
Hadi Khordbin: Q♥J♠

Khordbin was behind but had two live cards going to the run out. The dealer burned and then rolled over the Q♦3♦5♥ flop. Khordbin jumped into the lead and would stay there on the 7♥ turn and Q♠ river.

He earned the double knockout and a hefty pile of chips in the process.

Rabahie Gets Favorable Flop

Nível 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

The action folded to George Rabahie on the button who opened to 10,000. Parker "Tonkaaaa" Talbot was in the small blind and checked his cards, took a moment, and then announced he was all in. Rabahie went over his options, did some accounting, and then called.

The cards hit their backs with Talbot all in and at risk.

Parker Talbot: A♥2♣
George Rabahie: A♠4♣

Rabahie was ahead but only by a small margin. The two players would be chopping a large portion of the time but the dealer thought different and put out a 4♥4♦Q♠ flop. Talbot was only drawing to running aces for a chop and the help would not come on the Q♥ turn or J♦ river.

Rabahie scooped and sent Talbot to the rail after nearly flopping him dead.

Nível 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

After a few folds Alexander Ivanov moved all in for his remaining 8,500. It then folded to Andras Matrai on the button who put in a min-raise to 17,000 before the blinds folded. Ivanov was all in and at risk with the cards on their backs.

Alexander Ivanov: K♠Q♦
Andras Matrai: A♦10♠

The full board ran out 8♠Q♥6♦8♥10♣ and Ivanov would score the chips and the knockout on his way to a health stack late in the day.

Tamasauskas Wants More Chips in the Middle

Nível 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

After a few folds the action made it to Levente Szabo in middle position who raised to 6,000. It folded to Vladas Tamasauskas who is coming off of a huge series at the PokerGo Cup in Las Vegas and he opted to defend his big blind.

The 9♥6♠9♣ flop landed and Tamasauskas snap-checked it over to Szabo. He thought for a moment and then continued for 4,500. Tamasauskas went deep into thought for about two minutes before putting in a check-raise to the tune of 10,500 with only about 25,000 back.

Szabo seemed to be in a tricky spot and mulled over a call for close to two minutes. After some time he thought better of it and mucked his hand. Tamasauskas scored the pot with little resistance and got some much needed chips in the process.
