Nivel 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Lander Lijo opened the button to 80,000 and Andrea Dato called out of the big blind.

On the flop of 7♠4♥2♥, Dato checked it over to Lijo, who fired a continuation-bet of 145,000. Dato called.

A 3♣ dropped on the turn and after Dato checked for a second time, Lijo announced a bet of 325,000. Dato pondered for a while, then again called.

When the Q♥ landed on the river, Dato checked for a third and final time, and Lijo checked back. Dato showed 7♦6♥ for a pair of sevens, and Lijo mucked.

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

Life Outside Poker is a new podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.

In the 18th episode, Connor speaks with author and psychologist Maria Konnikova about her family leaving Russia to come to the US, writing her first story in kindergarten, being mentored by Steven Pinker at Harvard, meeting Erik Seidel for the first time and her 2020 bestseller The Biggest Bluff that explored her poker journey.

Konnikova, a PokerStars ambassador, also talked about her research for an upcoming book into cheating in poker and other games, as well as game integrity rule changes implemented at EPT Barcelona that Konnikova said needed to go even further.

"I think what PokerStars has done is amazing. I think you need to go a step further and not have any electronics anywhere on the table," said Konnikova. "Like, I think phones need to be on the floor, in your bag."

"I would actually also ban sunglasses because ... there's so much technology that (that can enable cheating)."

Chakib Mhiri raised his small blind to 105,000 with A♦8♦. Lander Lijo looked down at 7♥6♥ in the big blind and called. Mhiri bet 55,000 on the 8♠J♥5♣ flop and Lijo called. Mhiri then sized up to 150,000 on the J♠ turn.

Lijo called to the Q♥ river, where he folded his missed straight draw when Mhiri slid in another 150,000.

Bobby James opened to 60,000 from under the gun before Philip Joyce three-bet to 150,000 from middle position. The action folded back to James, who committed most of his stack, leaving a single big blind behind. Joyce snap-folded and got shown QxQx.

The following hand, Eleftherios Sinnos raised to 60,000 from the button and quickly folded when James made another effective all in.

"The younger brothers," said James as he tabled JxJx.

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

Marta Miquel Munoz raised from the button to 70,000 and Santhosh Suvarna called in the big blind.

On the 8♠4♣9♠ flop, both players checked to the 6♠ turn where Suvarna led out for 75,000, and Munoz called.

An 8♦ filled out the board and Suvarna fired a bet of 175,000 which, after using his full 30-second allowance, Munoz called.

Suvarna confidently flipped 10♣9♣ for top pair, but Munoz had rivered trips with 8♣5♦ to scoop the pot.

Artsiom Lasouski looked at K♠9♠ in middle position and made it 60,000 to go. His nemesis Georgios Tsouloftas three-bet to 180,000 with A♠8♦ on the button.

For the second hand in a row, Louski put in a four-bet, this time to 360,000. Tsouloftas opted to fold this time, giving some chips back to Lasouski.

Artsiom Lasouski saw J♦9♦ in the hijack and raised to 60,000. Georgios Tsouloftas three-bet to 210,000 in the small blind with A♦4♠ before Lasouski repopped it to 400,000.

The raising was not done yet, however, as Tsouloftas spent one time bank before shoving all in for 1,400,000. Lasouski had no option but to let his hand go as Tsouloftas took down the pot preflop.
