[KarmaDope]

Blind on blind, Andros Spyrou completed from the SB and BB Piotr Majewski checked. The flop was an action-inducing and unsurprisingly, both checked. The turn was the and Andros led out for 105k, only to be met by a quick all in from Piotr, 700k total. Andros looked visibly pained as he asked for a count before folding after a dwell-up.

Piotr showed one card, the !

Andrew Couldridge has used aggression well in 2 consecutive hands to add 650k to his stack in blind on blind confontations.

Firstly, he called a 135k raise from Piotr in the SB and on the flop, he raised Piotr's c-bet of 140k to 380k confidently. Piotr mucked pretty quickly.

On the very next hand, he limped the SB only to see Owen Robinson make it 140k. He flatted this and checked the flop. Owen c-bet 210 k only to see Andrew check-raise confidently to 500k. Again, Owen folded quickly.

Owen is down to 800k today, whilst Andrew has approx 1.8m.

Ta.

There's a break in about 15 mins, I'll try and get some then for you.

Piotr Majewski has doubled through Graham Giles.

Piotr open-shoved for 705k from the cutoff and it folded round to Graham in the BB who went deep into the tank. He kept checking his cards, his chips, and staring down Piotr before making a decision and calling. Piotr turned over and Graham's read was correct, he was ahead with his .

The flop was , which left Piotr wth 6 outs to stay in the tournament. One of those duly hit on the turn, the dealer popping out the , meaning Graham had 3 cards to hit on the river to knock Piotr out. Graham did hit the river, but it was the , which wasn't enough and sent the 1.5m pot over to Piotr, knocking Graham down to about 1m.

6 is now 5...

Piotr Makewski raised to 180k from the button, only to see Andrew Couldridge move all in from the SB. After 3-4 minutes in the tank, Piotr folded.

On the very next hand, Piotr again raised to 180k, this time from the cutoff. And again, the SB moved all in, this time Owen Robinson. The only difference was that this time Piotr tank-called.

Piotr showed against Owen's , and we were off to the races.

Flop: - giving Owen 15 outs on the turn and river. The turn duly delivered, the , sending Piotr to the rail in 6th place, taking home £13,200.

Andrew Couldridge has moved in preflop 3 times in the last 2 rounds, taking the not so substantial 145k in blinds and antes. He then moved in for a fourth time, and chip leader Ollie Schaffmann decided he had a good enough hand, and made the call.

Andrew:
Ollie:

The flop came and Andrew was still ahead. The turn gave Ollie more outs, the , but the river was the , pairing the board and sending the 2m pot over to Andrew. Ollie now drops back into the pack as Andrew ascends to the chipleaders.
