Heads-Up Action Underway

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

Andras Balogh and Lukas Pazma returned to their seats and the first few hands of heads-up play brought no major action. A limped pot led to the K?5?4? flop on which button limper Balogh bet 600,000 with the J?2?, Pazma check-called with 8?7?.

The 9? turn saw Pazma check again and Balogh bet 1,800,000, earning the pot without resistance.

Lukas Pazma kept the pressure high and jammed several times, while the two short stacks Stanislav Koleno and Andras Balogh were fighting for their survival. The inevitable clash of the latter two followed when Koleno jammed out of the small blind and Balogh called.

Stanislav Koleno: Q?9?
Lukas Pazma: Q?10?

The narrow kicker advantage was crucial despite a sweat on the J?7?4?K?3? runout, as Koleno bowed out in third place for �48,000. Both Balogh and Pazma will now go on a short break prior to the heads-up duel for the WSOP gold bracelet.

Stanislav Koleno pushed all-in from the small blind and Andras Balogh called for the seven million he had behind, fewer than 12 big blinds at that stage.

Pazma Gets River Value From Koleno

Level 37 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Lukas Pazma opened to 1,100,000 with the A?5? on the button and Stanislav Koleno called in the big blind with 5?4?. The J?6?4? flop gave Koleno the lead and he check-called a bet worth 1,200,000. On the J? turn, the action went check, check, and the 3? river restored the preflop order.

Koleno checked again and Pazma bet 2,500,000 to send his fellow countryman into the tank. The curious call followed and Pazma cemented his lead with four players remaining.
