Abbasov skips turn, still wins pot

Level 13: 2,000 / 4,000 ante: 4,000

Khayal Abbasov

Khayal Abbasov of Azerbaijan raises it to 8,000 from utg+2 and manages to draw two callers.

The flop comes T♥ 8♣ A♠ as the caller from the bb checks. Abbasov CBets 10,000 and gets a call from Lithuania’s Simas Karaliunas in the cutoff. The bb caller folds. It is heads-up to the turn which brings out the T♣ as this time. Both remaining players check. The river is the 5♠ as the Azerbaijani—after choosing to skip the turn—fires a river vet of 32,000. Karaliunas opts to fold.

Heavy shelling between Karaliunas and Kumpumäki

Level 9: 800 / 1,600 ante: 1,600

Simas Karaliunas

With the action folded to the hijack position of Finland’s Ari Kumpumäki, he raises it to 3,200. However, Simas Karaliunas of Lithuania had other plans as he 3-bets it to 10,000. Kumpumäki makes the call.

The flop is 7♣ 5♥ 5♦ as Karaliunas CBets to 10,000 anew. The answer from the Finnish player is to raise it to 25,000. It didn’t take long for Karaliunas to declare that he is all-in on a 3-bet shove. Kumpumäki’s next move is to perform a quick fold.

With a huge pot of 23,000 brewing and a board of J♦ 3♦ 9♥ 7♠ , Finland’s Tommi Krankka shoves his remaining stack of 56,300 and gets called by Lithuanian foe Simas Karaliunas.
