Frank Visser

Level 7 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Daniel Tordjman in the hijack checked to Samuel Welbourne on the button on a flop of 9♦2♣7♠. Welbourne then bet 1,300 chips, which Tordjman raised to 4,000.

Welbourne tossed in a call and did so too when Tordjman continued fo 7,200 on the 2♥ turn. The 8♣ river saw Tordjman complete his triple barrel with an all-in bet of 14,100, and Welbourne snap called with the covering stack.

Tordjman tabled Q♦J♦ for queen-high, while Welbourne raked in the pot with 7♥7♦ for a full house.

Mamut Gets Lucky to Eliminate Wrafter

Frank Visser

Level 8 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Nikolai Mamut raised to 2,000 from middle position and received a call from David Docherty on the button. Joseph Wrafter then pushed all in from the small blind for 22,000, which only Mamut called.

Joseph Wrafter: A♦K♣ All in
Nikolai Mamut: A♠10♠

Wrafter had the dominating hand, but that changed once Mamut paired on the 4♥2♥10♦ flop. Neither the 9♥ turn nor J♦ river saw Wrafter improve, resulting in his departure from the table.

Three-Way All-In Triples L'Huillier, Busts Romanovs

Frank Visser

Level 8 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

On a flop of 6♥J♣5♥, with 16,000 chips in the middle, Raitis Romanovs made a bet from the big blind. Thomas Garment called in middle position before Jean L'Huillier jammed all in for 22,000 in the hijack.

Romanovs then rejammed for 43,500, and Garment made the call to put them both at risk.

Jean L'Huillier: A♥10♥ All in
Raitis Romanovs: Q♠Q♥ All in
Thomas Garment: 6♦6♣

Garment's set remained ahead when the turn fell the 10♣, but the 4♥ river gave L'Huillier a flush to triple up. Meanwhile, Romanovs lost the side pot and was eliminated by Garment as a consequence.

Roovers Puts Pressure on Mahonen

Frank Visser

Level 9 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Mark Roovers raised to 2,000 from early position and Jari Mahonen called in the small blind. Mario Nicoforo defended the big blind and the three went off to a flop of J♣A♣2♥, which got checked through.

Mahonen then fired 2,500 on the 7♦ turn, which only Roovers called. On the 7♥ river, Mahonen sized up to 7,500, but Roovers upped the ante even more with a raise to 22,400.

Mahonen spent some time in the tank before forfeiting his cards and thus the pot to Roovers.
