Watson Pushes Petrangelo Out

Level 14 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Nick Petrangelo
Nick Petrangelo

The board read {2-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{10-Spades} with just over 100,000 in the middle.

Nick Petrangelo had checked his cutoff for Mike Watson to bet 50,000 from the button. Petrangelo took some time and then made the call.

The {k-Clubs} completed the board and Petrangelo checked for the final time. Watson put in a stack of chips to put Petrangelo all-in who called for the 95,000 or so he had behind. Watson tabled the {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for Broadway for Petrangelo to flip over his {a-Spades}{a-Hearts} for the flopped set and get up from his seat to make his way out of the tournament area.

Bujtas Doubles Through Nemeth

Level 13 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Laszlo Bujtas
Laszlo Bujtas

Laszlo Bujtas got his 55,000 chips in on the button and was at risk against Andras Nemeth in the cutoff.

Laszlo Bujtas: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Andras Nemeth: {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

The {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop changed nothing, as Nemeth put his king forward to try to summon one from the deck, and the {k-Diamonds} indeed appeared on the turn. Bujtas then moved his ace forward, and the {a-Clubs} spiked the river as the table laughed and Bujtas stayed alive.

Adams Calls Big Bujtas Bet

Level 13 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Timothy Adams opened to 17,000 from the cutoff, Pascal Lefrancois called on the button, and Laszlo Bujtas called in the big blind.

The flop came {8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and action checked to Lefrancois who bet 16,000. Both opponents continued.

The trio checked the {10-Hearts} turn to the {k-Spades} river and Bujtas led for 110,000. Adams used a couple of time extension and ultimately called, while Lefrancois folded.

Bujtas showed {6-Hearts}{5-Spades}, while Adams tabled {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs} to take the pot.
