After unknown preflop action, Ates Hikmet bet 125,000 on the ?? flop out of the small blind and initial preflop aggressor Mehmet Sinan Ogan now made it 275,000 to go. Hikmet gave it some consideration but eventually mucked the ? for everybody to see.
There was no major action as of lately and many small and medium-sized pots were traded back and forth. Serhat Cetiner was on the wrong end for some of them and dropped some, increasing the gap to chip leader Ates Hikmet.
Joining the action on the ??? turn, Mehmet Sinan Ogan bet 86,000 from the hijack and was called by Yevgeniy Dudos from one seat over to see the on the river. Ogan made a final bet of 133,000 and that proved to be too much for Dudos.
Mehmet Sinan Ogan raised from the button and called the 91,000-three-bet of Ates Hikmet out of the big blind. On the ?? flop, Hikmet fired 155,000 and was called before moving all in when the appeared on the turn. Hikmet immediately moved all in and Ogan shook his head in disgust. A few more seconds of consideration followed and he tossed the cards into the muck.
In a battle of the blinds, Sergey Minaev raised preflop from the small blind and then called the 100,000-three-bet of Mehmet Sinan Ogan from one seat over. Minaev check-raised all in after a flop of ?? and Ogan snap-called after his bet of 75,000.
Minaev: ?
Ogan: ?
Neither the turn nor the river changed anything and Minaev was sent to the payout desk in order to collect �5,120 for his efforts. In the meanwhile, Ogan is back to his bigger stack after losing two all ins against short stacks in the last level.
In back-to-back hands, Marko Banovic ran out of chips. The first hand saw a raising war with Banovic all in and he put Serhat Cetiner at risk for slightly less chips out of the big blind. Cetiner had a coin flip for his last 461,000 chips with ? and faced the ? of Banovic.
The ?? flop changed nothing whatsoever, but Banovic got there with the on the turn. The dealer then burned and turned the for a two outer and Cetiner doubled up.
Banovic was all in for his last 26,000 chips the very next hand and got called by Cetiner and Sergey Minaev in the big blind, who had called blind without seeing his cards. Cetiner and Minaev checked through the ???? board and Banovic showed the ? for top pair. Cetiner couldn't beat that with ? but Minaev then glanced at his cards and flipped over ? for a straight.
