Fifteen Minutes of Calm

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

The frenzy of elimination which has characterised this level has been paused for what is probably going to be the last break of the night.

Caught Puching Above His Weight

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

After both Konstantin Puchkov and Anton Morgenstern checked the turn of a {5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{6-Hearts} board, the former quickly fired out 100,000 on the {10-Spades} river with around 250,000 in the pot already.

Morgenstern tanked before making the call and Puchkov turned over {8-Clubs}{7-Spades} for a missed straight draw, his Russian compatriot winning with a paltry {a-Clubs}{2-Hearts}.

Puchkov is now very short.

Guiglini Gutted

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante
Aurelien Guiglini
Aurelien Guiglini

Jonas Gutteck shoved for a little over 200,000 from the small blind, and Aurelien Guiglini called all in from the big blind for around 165,000. On their backs.

Guiglini: {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
Gutteck: {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Board: {q-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Ouch. Gutteck rivered a gutshot straight to send the plucky young Frenchman to the rail. Gutteck is now in considerably better shape than he was, on 370,000.

KOlosov

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

Maksim Kolosov is no more. A hand simply snowballed right out of control when a threeway flop of {J-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades} saw a bet out from Daniel-Gai Pidun (57k), raise from Robin Ylitalo (112k) and then shove from Kolosov for over 300,000! This was met by a quick shove in response from Pidun and the first flop raiser got out of the way like a squirrel crossing a dual carriageway at rush hour.

Kolosov: {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Pidun: {J-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}

The turn and river: {5-Hearts}{3-Spades}. Pidun 1,000,000+.

Pantalaces

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante
Giuseppe Pantaleo back on Day 2, before we had the feature table
Giuseppe Pantaleo back on Day 2, before we had the feature table

Up at the feature table Giuseppe Pantaleo was shouting, and a moment later he was celebrating with a hug from recent bustee Timo Pfützenreuter at the rail. It's really terribly difficult to see anything that's going on up there, but we're pretty sure that it was aces against kings to double the extremely short-stacked Pantaleo up to a slightly less desperate stack.

Konstantin Will Not Be Puched Around

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante
Konstantin Puchkov
Konstantin Puchkov

We only caught the very end of the hand, which consisted of the dealer assessing Konstantin Puchkov's stack and then Ben Wilinofsky paying up, but the cards were still helpfully on the felt. Wilinofsky was in the cutoff and Puchkov on the button.

Wilinofsky: {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Puchkov: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Board: {8-}{4-}{2-}{a-}{j-}

Puchkov doubled to a respectable 460,000. Wilinofsky is still up there with the big boys - he's at roughly 1.45 million after that.

Danzing in the Streets

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante
George 'No longer a tiny' Danzer
George 'No longer a tiny' Danzer

Team PokerStars Pro George Danzer is back in the fight after doubling up his 293,000 stack by finding {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} at exactly the right time that Mario Adinolfi found {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}.

The board came out a slightly scary {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Danzer doubled up to 600,000. Adinolfi dropped to 650,000.
