2024 WSOP Europe
The complete action was missed but with roughly 50,000 in the pot on a board of 8♠J♦Q♥2♦, Kazimieras Sileikis had raised to 60,000 from the cutoff over an Alex Foxen bet from early position. Foxen then three-bet to 102,000 and Sileikis went deep into the tank.
Sileikis pondered over the situation for quite some time. Eventually, he decided a fold was the best option and forfeited the pot to Foxen.
On a flop of 6♣5♦A♠, Roman Mikus had committed the last of his chips with Daniel Koloszar in pole position to score a knockout.
Roman Mikus: A♦10♣
Daniel Koloszar: A♣K♠
Mikus was in a world of trouble and got no help from the 3♦J♠ runout, which meant he was eliminated.
Nick Palma and Tamas Adamszki were heads-up on a board of 7♦7♠10♦4♦ when Palma bet 11,000 from under the gun. Adamszki called in the cutoff.
The river was the 9♥ and Palma bet 28,000. Adamszki snap-called and Palma showed A♦10♣ for two pair, tens and sevens. Adamszki, though, had 10♠9♠ for a better two pair on the river to win the pot.
"Seems like a fair river card," Palma said.
Memik Sezer raised from the cutoff to 4,500 and got called by Timur Margolin on the button, Wouter Beltz in the small blind, & Adrian State from the big blind.
On the flop of 7♦4♦8♠, Beltz checked and State led out for 4,000. Sezer folded, Margolin called, and Beltz got out of the way.
A 9♥ hit the turn and after State checked, Margolin shoved. State had around 40,000 remaining in his stack and took around two minutes before he finally decided to commit them all to the pot, which left him at risk.
Adrian State: 10♠8♣
Timur Margolin: A♦10♥
Both players had straight draws but State's pair had him in the lead, one that he would keep as the 7♥ river didn't change anything.
Arriving on a flop of 9♣8♥5♠, the action checked to Jonathan Pastore in a modest pot of 16,500. He bet 4,000 from the hijack, after which Erik van Hulst made it 11,000 in the big blind.
Not enough for Nolan Curatolo, who three-bet to 27,000. Pastore called before Van Hulst got out of the way. The J♦ saw Curatolo slow down as he checked to Pastore. Pastore bet 25,000 and Curatolo called after a minute or two.
The 3♥ river was also checked to Pastore. "This might be the worst check-back of my life," Pastore said as he knuckled the table.
Curatolo tabled 10♠7♠ for a turned straight. "Maybe not," Pastore concluded as he mucked his cards.
Fahredin Mustafov moved all in for 28,000 in the hijack and Boris Angelov called in the small blind. Peter Kusnirik reshoved for 174,000 in early position and Angelov tanked for a few minutes before folding.
Fahredin Mustafov: K♦10♦
Peter Kusnirik: K♠K♥
Mustafov was far behind Kusnirik's kings and found no miracles on the Q♥6♠7♣4♠10♥ board as he was sent to the rail.
"Did you have jacks or queens?" tablemate Michael Dick asked Angelov, who remained silent as Kusnirik took in the pot.
Abdulaziz Al Dosari raised to 4,000 from middle position and Iman Ghashayar three-bet to 11,500 from the cutoff. Al Dosari called and they headed to a flop.
Al Dosari check-called a bet of 7,000 from Ghashayar on the 2♥5♠10♥ flop.
The 3♠ turn and 2♦ river got checked down and Al Dosari turned over A♠J♦ for ace-high. which lost to the A♥5♥ for a pair of fives of Ghashayar.
Action folded to Fabian Niederreiter who limped in from the small blind. Shaun Deeb then raised to 6,000 in the big blind. Niederreiter reraised to 21,000, and Deeb called.
The flop came 9♠4♠4♥ and Niederreiter led out for 11,000. Deeb called and the K♣ fell on the turn. Niederreiter then bet 44,000 and Deeb again called.
The 10♥ fell on the river and Niederreiter bet 95,000, enough to put Deeb all in. Deeb quickly folded and Niederreiter took the pot.
