Tsouloftas Loses Lead After Bluffing Into Schuh

Level 38 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Michal Schuh
Michal Schuh

Michal Schuh limped in from the small blind and Georgios Tsouloftas checked in the big blind. Schuh continued for 600,000 on the 7?K?3? flop, which Tsouloftas raised to 1,800,000.

Schuh then three-bet to 4,700,000 and Tsouloftas called with his gutshot. The Q? saw Schuh slow down with a check. This signaled Tsouloftas to bet 5,000,000, which Schuh called after some thinking time.

The 3? river completed the board, prompting Schuh to check again. Tsouloftas checked back this time, and Schuh tabled K?7? for two pair.

He dragged the pot as Tsouloftas had been bluffing with his 6?4?, solidifying a chip lead over the other two players.

Tsouloftas Leads Into Better Hand

Level 38 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Michal Schuh raised his button to 1,300,000 and saw Georgios Tsouloftas defend in the big blind. Tsouloftas checked to Schuh on the 3?J?7? flop, after which the latter continued for 1,500,000.

Tsouloftos called to the 10? turn, where he led out for 1,800,000. Schuh was not going anywhere and stuck in a call, after which Tsoulofates bet the minmum of 600,000 on the river.

Schuh snap called. Tsouloftas tabled K?10? for a pair of tens but was outkicked by Schuh's A?10?. Tsouloftas lost the first significant pot of his final table, seeing Schuh inch closer to him in the counts.

Level 38 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Georgios Tsouloftas limped in from under the gun and Michal Schuh called from the small blind. Paul Runcan was in the big blind with 200,000 behind, and checked.

Paul Runcan: Q?4? All in
Michal Schuh: 9?2?
