Martin Kabrhel opened the action and Yuhei Sanada moved all in for just over 66,000.
Kabrhel gave his opponent his customary staredown and chatter and, although it wasn’t clear how much Sanada from Japan understood, he told Kabrhel that he had aces. Kabrhel nevertheless called.
Sanada:
Kabrhel:
The board ran out and Sanada had his double-up.
“He said he had aces. He lied to me,” Kabrhel said in mock outrage.
“I am a bluffer.” Sanada replied.
“Biggest bluffer from Japan eh? Bluffing machine,”
Russell Crane raised to 5,000 and he was raised to 37,000 from Kenny Hallaert who left himself with 800 behind. Crane announced call, threw out chips, and flipped his hand, showing and not seeing the 800 Hallaert had left.

Martin Kabrhel loves to talk incessantly at the poker table. Some people love it, others hate it.
John Esposito has just joined the table and for the moment he is the subject of Kabrhel’s attention and Esposito is currently giving as good as he gets.
It looks as if neither knows who the other player is or their reputations although they seem to be determined to get into pots with each other while the talk flows between hands. They have similar stacks so this could be an interesting battle.
