Big decisions prove costly for pair

Some big hands transpiring in the Card Casino Prague including warring big stacks and shrinking short stacks!

The biggest pot of the day inevitably featured Tibor Boros, as having gained confidence from his growing stack, Radoslav Průcha (pictured top left) challenged the Hungarian's dominance in position.

The Czech had already raised from the button and called Boros' pre-flop three-bet by the time the board came a rather innocuous 5♣2♥8♠.

He continued to show no fear post-flop, despite Tibor's reputation for having the goods in the big hands, as he raised the chip leader's c-bet.

Průcha eventually called for a clock, but it only served to speed up the 3-bet, forcing the challenger to fold and reinstate Boros dominance.

Moments earlier Průcha had been the player on the up, earning a big call from Bernd Wachter (pictured bottom right) to leave the German teetering on the brink. Radoslav's two pair, showing K9 in the hole, had Wachter's middle pair tens crushed.
