Analysis: Bystrenin Dictating the Tempo

Level 29 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
888poker LIVE Madrid Main Event Final Table
888poker LIVE Madrid Main Event Final Table

It's been a tentative start at the final table for pretty much everyone apart from Oleg Bystrenin and perhaps Tom Orpaz. Even though Adrian Garcia was responsible for the only elimination so far, Bystrenin has been opening regularly from various positions on the table to try and dictate the tempo with such a big stack and commanding chip lead.

And he could have eliminated Jonas Ten Cate as a result of this aggression, were it not for an ace on the river to save the Dutchman.

Meanwhile, Orpaz is looking to regain the chip lead he lost to Bystrenin prior to the final table, and has overtaken Saam Pishvaie to occupy second in the chip counts.

888poker's Lucia Navarro and Ricardo Mateus had been pretty quiet, until just now went Navarro doubled up Jaime Pedraza, but there's still a long way to go with eight remaining in the 888poker LIVE Madrid Main Event.

Garcia Folds to Orpaz Raise

Level 29 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Adrian Garcia opened to 400,000 from under the gun with {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Tom Orpaz defended his big blind with {a-Clubs}{4-Spades}

The flop came {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and Orpaz checked. Garcia continued for 375,000 and Orpaz check-raised to 1,100,000.

Garcia quickly folded.

Ten Cate Dodges Disaster to Double Through Bystrenin

Level 29 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Oleg Bystrenin opened to 400,000 in the hijack. Jonas Ten Cate was in the big blind and three-bet all in for 1,300,000. Bystrenin glanced at the clock and asked for a count before eventually calling.

Jonas Ten Cate: {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Oleg Bystrenin: {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

Bystrenin didn't look pleased at having to make the call, and was dominated by his opponent. However, there was an eight in the window of a {10-Spades}{8-Spades}{5-Clubs} flop.

However, the turn {a-Diamonds} instantly turned things around for Ten Cate as the {j-Hearts} completed the board and the Dutchman doubled up.
