Abrahamsson & Raffoul Get Banksy Out

Partilhar no Twitter Partilhar no Facebook

Nível 3 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

A rough two hands saw Banksy's stack plummet to zero as both Daniel Abrahamsson and Edgard Raffoul benefitted.

First, Banksy made it 2,000 to go on the button and then called the 10,000-chip three-bet from Abrahamsson, who was in the big blind.

On the 8♣8♠J♥ flop, Banksy called a bet of 5,500 from Abrahamsson and both watched the 3♦ peel off on the turn. Again Abrahamsson bet, this time for 14,500, which again Banksy called.

Both then knuckled the table on the 10♦ river, and Abrahamsson's 10♠9♠ was good for the pot with a rivered pair of tens.

Shortly after, Banksy had his remaining stack of just under 30,000 in the middle and was put at risk by Edgard Raffoul.

Banksy: Q♠Q♦
Edgard Raffoul: A♦K♠

The pocket queens looked good for a double-up on the 10♠10♥2♥4♠ board, but the A♥ on the river gave Raffoul a pair of aces and left Banksy out of chips.

Nível 3 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Banksy made it 1,700 to go from under the gun and the button called. Boris Kolev was in the small blind and made a three-bet to 10,000, which only Banksy called.

On he 10♠6♦4♣ flop, a chunky continuation-bet of 16,000 got the job done from Kolev as Banksy quickly laid his cards down.

Nível 2 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

On a board of 3♠2♠8♥4♣, there were around 20,000 chips in the pot when Eimantas Adomavicius checked from early position and Gerard Carbo Santamaria bet 13,500 from the button. Adomavicius called.

An 8♠ on the river changed the texture of the board as the flush draw came in and also put a pair out there. Adomavicius checked again, then Santamaria went for a smaller sizing of 15,000. Adomavicius took some time to think about it but eventually folded, and Santamaria took down the pot.

Nível 2 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Daniel Kraus made it 1,200 from middle position and Nerses Sargsian called in the hijack. Ege Guven called in the cutoff before Grigorii Rodin bumped it up to 12,000 from the big blind. Kraus and Sargsian folded, and Guven called.

On the 4♦4♠10♦ flop, Rodin put out a continuation-bet of 6,400, which Guven called to see the J♠ roll off on the turn. Without much hesitation, Rodin shoved 80,000 into the middle, and after a short time deliberating, Guven folded with around 40,000 behind.

Rodin finished seventh in the Warm Up at the 2025 Western Series, and will be looking to use that momentum to make another deep run here.

Nível 1 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

There were already around 20,000 chips in the middle on a board of 8♠K♥5♠6♥7♣ when Nerses Sargsian put out an overbet of 26,000 from the hijack. Ege Guven was in the cutoff and was deciding how best to proceed for some time before he eventually announced a call.

Sargsian then showed a straight with 9♠9♦, and Guven's cards went into the muck.

Nível 1 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Miroslav Forman just took down a decent-sized pot to get his tournament underway.

In a pot with around 2,000 in the middle on a 3♥J♣8♦ board, it checked around to Mario Menicanin on the button, who fired out 500. The small blind called, then Miroslav Forman made it 5,300 from the big blind. A player in early position called, and the other two players folded.

A 9♠ on the turn saw Forman continue his aggression with a bet of 16,500, which once again his opponent called to the 4♥ river. Forman didn't need to think for too long before he shoved for around 75,000, and his opponent quickly folded.
