Kanit Left Short

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Picking up the action on the {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{5-Clubs} turn, Sylvain Loosli bet 6,700 out of the big blind and Mustapha Kanit called from under the gun. The {A-Spades} river saw the Frenchman with a bet worth 16,500 and Kanit called only to muck once he was shown the {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs} by Loosli.

Stern Down; Mercier Continues to Thrive

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Ariel Celestino opened and then called a three-bet for 15,300 by Jason Mercier from one seat over. The flop fell {10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Celestino quickly check-folded to a continuation bet. The table also features Samuel Panzica and Zvi Stern with the latter being down significantly.

Ghassan Gets Under Their Skin

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Ibrahim Ghassan shoved into Steve O'Dwyer not long ago and enforced a fold while Mustapha Kanit now tried to take on the Lebanese. He fired the streets of a board {A-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} with a bet of 25,000 on the river and Ghassan moved all in for 40,500. Kanit tanked for quite some time and then let go!

Goryachev Short

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Alex Difelice has been eliminated and Viacheslav Goryachev may very well be the next on the list. Emil Patel raised to 5,500 and Goryachev three-bet to 13,000 from the button. Patel asked to see his stack and the dealer moved the T-5,000 chips over to the other side of the table, getting chuckles from Anthony Zinno. "That's a first," he said.

Patel then called and checked the flop {9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}. Goryachev bet 11,300 with 22,800 behind and folded to the check-raise all in by Patel.

Jason Mercier into Chip Lead

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
Jason Mercier
Jason Mercier

On a flop of {j-Spades}{10-Spades}{4-Hearts}, Jason Mercier check-raised a bet from his opponent Pedro Padilha, and Padilha made the call. On the turn card, which was the {10-Hearts}, Mercier lead out before being shoved on by his opponent. Mercier called and tabled {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, for a turned full house, with his opponent Padilha holding {7-Spades}{8-Spades}, with just one out to stay alive.

Unfortunately for him the river was the {a-Hearts} and Padilha headed to the exit

Six Seat Open

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

The media tickets of Nick Petrangelo, Antonio Ferreira, Bryn Kenney and Mariano Martiradonna were all waiting to be picked up when returning to the tournament area and Kelvin Kerber as well as Daniel Dvoress busted at the same time.

Dvoress had tangled a few times with table neighbor Arne Coulier and then got his short stack in after a flop of {10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}. Or Hadad looked him up with the slightly worse hand:

Dvoress: {K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Hadad: {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The {J-Clubs} turn improved the player from Israel and the {Q-Hearts} river was a blank to bust Dvoress.
