From Rags to Riches

Tboss

Nível 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Carlos Ribeiro had just doubled up his 585,000 stack with pocket fours against the ace-jack of Stanislav Zegal, and he was right back in the action as he raised to 90,000 in the hijack.

Vladas Tamasauskas three-bet to 275,000 in the big blind, and after thinking for some time, Ribeiro announced an all-in for 1,130,000. Tamasauskas snap-called.

Carlos Ribeiro: A♠K♥
Vladas Tamasauskas: A♦A♣

Ribeiro was in a world of trouble, but the K♣Q♦5♥ flop gave him a couple of outs as he flopped a pair of kings. The K♠ fell on the turn, giving him trips to take the lead and the 4♠ completed the board.

Nível 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Stefan Lehner was forced all-in in the small blind after the previous hand.

On the K♦K♣4♠ flop Kuznetsov raised to 525,000 versus a bet of 140,000 from Weis. Weis called.

On the 5♥ turn Kuznetsov check-called a bet of 145,000 from Weiss.

The river brought the 6♥ and Weis put out a bet of 850,000 when Kuznetsov checked to him. Kuznetsov folded sending a big side pot to Weis.

Lehner had Q♦9♠ for queen-high while Weis had A♣A♦ for a pair of aces, sending Lehner to the exit and damaging Kuznetsov.

Kuznetsov Takes Huge Pot

Nível 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Luca Marki raised to 80,000 in the cutoff and was called by Nikita Kuznetsov on the button and Ihar Soika in the small blind.

On the A♦3♠J♠ flop Marki continued with a bet of 105,000 and was called by both of his opponents.

The turn brought the 9♦ and Marki continued to fire, putting out a bet of 275,000. Again both opponents called.

The 7♦ rolled off on the river and Marki fired out a bet of 625,000. After some thought, Kuznetsov raised to 1,250,000, leaving only 225,000 behind. Soika folded and Mark called.

Kuznetsov showed K♦Q♦ for the king-high flush and Marki hit the table in frustration as Kuznetsov raked in the pot.

Carlos Ribeiro: A♣9♠

Nível 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Enrico Camosci opened to 60,000 and Ihar Soika moved all in from the big blind with a covering stack. Camosci called to put himself at risk.

Enrico Camosci: A♥K♣
Ihar Soika: A♣Q♣

Camosci looked good for the double-up but the Q♥4♣J♣ was the worst possible flop, Soika flopping top pair and the nut flush draw.

The 10♣ rolled off on the turn to complete the flush and leave Camosci drawing dead, with the 4♠ completing the runout.

Tboss

Nível 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Badr Douch was seen all in for his last 205,000 against Luca Marki and both hands were on their backs.

Badr Douch: J♥J♣
Luca Marki: A♥3♣

Douch was in great shape, but the 5♥4♥2♣ flop gave Marki a straight. The 2♦ turn, and Q♦ river were no help for Douch as he exited in 20th place.
