: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Konstantin Puchkov opened the betting from early position for 2,100. Jose Carlos Garcia three-bet to 4,800 but then Joao Vieira sprung a cold four-bet from the small blind. No folds here as both Puchkov, after some thought, and then Garcia put in the calling chips.
The flop was and Vieira scanned his opponents from behind his dark glasses before checking. The other players checked and the dealer put out the on the turn and again Vieira looked hard at Puchkov who did seem to visibly relax. Vieira checked and after a few moments Puchkov bet 15,000.
