Two Leftover Hands from Level 22
Nível 23
: 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
Level 22 recently ticked down, and there were two hands that unfolded near the end that we want to share.
Hand #1: Action folded to John Juanda in the hijack and he moved all in for 229,000. Philipp Gruissem called from the button, and both blinds got out of the way. Juanda tabled the 
, a hand lucky in Asian culture, and then Gruissem said, "I got the luckiest hand in Germany." He then rolled over the 
.
The "luckiest hand in Germany" proved not to be too lucky though as the board ran out a dry 
and Juanda was pushed the pot.
Hand #2: Stephen Chidwick opened for 55,000 under the gun and Martin Finger called from the button. The 
flop saw Finger call a bet of 75,000 from Chidwick, who then checked the 
turn. Finger took the opportunity to bet 120,000, Chidwick called, and then both players checked the 
river.

Action Continues
Nível 23
: 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
No big pots recently but some interesting dynamics nonetheless.
Davidi Kitai opened for 30,000 and then called a three-bet of 140,000 from Philipp Gruissem. The blinds folded and they saw a flop of 
Kitai checked and a continuation bet from Gruissem won the pot.
Scott Seiver opened for 65,000 and Martin Finger three-bet him to 140,000. A four bet of 350,000 from Seiver saw Finger quickly flick his cards away.
A rare open from Byron Kaverman for 60,000 saw Chenxiang Miao move all in and Kaverman fold when he got the count.
Seiver limed on the button and Finger checked his option in the big blind. They saw a flop of 
and Finger check-called a bet of 35,000 from Seiver. The turn was the 
and again Finger checked. This time he folded to a bet of 120,000 from Seiver.
Seiver raised to 70,000 from the cutoff and his only caller was Philipp Gruissem in the big blind. The flop was . Gruissem check-called a bet of 70,000 from Seiver and they both checked the turn 
and river

BK Can't Have It His Way
Nível 23
: 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
Byron Kaverman opened for 65,000 only to have Scott Seiver three-bet him to 200,000 from the small blind. Kaverman made the call and then folded to a bet of 260,000 on the 
flop.
In the next hand, Kaverman repeated his preflop action and Davidi Kitai decided to three-bet him from the cutoff, this time to 135,000. Kaverman made the call and then check-called a bet of 88,000 on the 
flop.
Kaverman checked for a second time on the 
turn, and Kitai fired out 255,000. It did the trick as Kaverman released his hand.
