Set Over Set For Panetti

Livello 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

In a pot that was bloated to well over 40,000, the board read Q♥A♦8♥K♠ and Christophe Panetti placed a bet of 18,400. His opponent thought for quite some time before he called.

Action slowed when a third heart presented itself on the river in the form of the 4♥ and both players checked.

Panetti turned over the K♥K♦ for top set and his opponent nodded knowingly, showing the Q♦Q♠.

"I was hoping you had ace king..."

Sturm Steered Elsewhere

Livello 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Leon Sturm, recent high roller bracelet winner, raised before the flop and faced the jam of Ian Hirasa. He didn't wait long before quietly announcing call and turning his hand face up.

Leon Sturm: Q♥Q♣
Ian Hirasa: K♥K♣

The dealer flopped A♦7♦3♦ but no player had a diamond so it wasn't a sweat. The 8♣ and 4♠ were no help to Sturm and his pair of queens were thwarted by the kings of Hirasa.

Players do have a reentry available to them so only time will tell if Sturm steps back into battle.

Peters Plays Strong from the Big Blind

Livello 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

There was a raise to 900 from the cutoff which was called by the button and David Peters in the big blind. The flop came K♠Q♠10♣ and the cutoff continued with a bet of 1,600 which the button called. Peters check-raised to 5,800 and only the cutoff called.

The turn was the J♠ and Peters led out with a bet of 5,500. His opponent still called and the 2♠ landed on the river. Peters thought for over a minute before sliding out a bet of 8,500. His opponent also took some time in the tank but finally decided to fold.

A Chance is Only a Chance

Livello 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Chance Kornuth, who had been nursing a short stack, could be heard rooting for a certain card as he said, "I have 80% of a royal! Let's go 80% of the royal!". He was all in, but not exactly at risk and his opponent, who was slightly annoyed said, "You're already winning..."

The players had clearly gotten the chips in already and the flop read A♦10♦9♦.

Chance Kornuth: Q♦J♦
Opponent: A♥K♣

The 10♠ wasn't the turn that Kornuth wished for and Kornuth said, "I don't care about you losing the hand, I care about making a royal!" but he was unable to add insult to injury when the 7♣ completed the board.

Kornuth's flopped flush held, but he was still left with a short stack despite the double. This goes to show, no matter how many titles are won, or how many hands someone plays - everyone loves to sweat a royal flush draw.
