Rojas Lays Down Big Slick

Dan O'Hair

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Marcos Diego raised to 40,000 from the hijack and was three-bet to 140,000 by Marin Rojas on the button. Action folded back around to Diego and he four-bet to 350,000. Rojas thought for a bit and decided to call.

The flop came 8♥6♠8♠ and Diego bet 275,000. Rojas turned over A♠K♣ and sent it into the muck — conceding the pot to Diego.

Irles Fades Everything

Connor Richards

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Abtin Heiratiasbagh opened to 50,000 from early position and Francisco Irles three-bet jammed a stack of around 300,000 from the hijack. Heiratiasbagh called with a bigger stack.

Francisco Irles: K♠K♣
Abtin Heiratiasbagh: A♣10♠

The flop of 10♣5♣3♣ gave Heiratiasbagh the nut flush draw and the 2♥ turn gave him a gutshot to a wheel. However, the 3♦ was safe for Irles' kings and he doubled up.

Abtin Heiratiasbagh	225,000 225,000	225,000

Connolly Finds a Much-Needed Double up

Dan O'Hair

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action folded around to Aidan Connolly in the small blind, who shoved for his last 135,000. Nabil Benchaouch verified the count and stuck in a call after a bit of deliberation.

Aidan Connolly: A♠5♥
Nabil Benchaouch: J♦3♠

Connolly held the lead, and the 5♦5♣2♣8♦7♣ runout left Connolly with trip fives, which was good for the double up.

Marco Regonaschi opened to 45,000 from middle position and Nabil Benchaouch three-bet to 215,000 from the hijack. Regonaschi four-bet jammed for around 425,000 as the action got around and Benchaouch called with a bigger stack.

Marco Regonaschi: J♣J♠

Morillo Wins Race to Send Reichenstein Out

Dan O'Hair

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Bart Lybaert opened to 40,000 from under the gun and just behind him, Uri Reichenstein shoved for his last 230,000. Sebastian Morillo called cold from the hijack to put Reichenstein at risk and everyone else folded.

Uri Reichenstein: A♦Q♥
Sebastian Morillo: 9♠9♣

Morillo held a slight lead with his nines, and the 6♥J♠3♥2♥5♠ runout failed to improve Reichenstein — eliminating him from contention.
