Hand #36: Thomas Bichon raised from the button to 60,000 and Vladimir Krastev called from the big blind. The flop came down 8Q4 and Krastev check-called 65,000.

The turn was the A and Krastev check-called another 130,000. On the river the T hit and Krastev check-called 175,000. Bichon showed A4 for two pair and Krastev mucked leaving himself with just 280,000 chips.

Hand #37: Konstantinos Nanos raised from the button to 60,000 and Thomas Bichon three-bet to 160,000 from the big blind.

Nanos called and the flop brought out 78J and Bichon checked to Nanos who bet 185,000. Bichon folded and asked, “Can you beat ace-queen?”.

“I had a very good hand, yes,” Nanos replied before raking in another pot.

Hand #38: Nanos received a walk.
