Ribeiro Doubles; Ederoua Busts

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Darko Svesko
Darko Svesko

Brazil's Carlos Ribeiro flipped with {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} against the {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts} of Jamil Wakil and found the required help on a board of {a-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. That showdown left Wakil with a few big blinds only right before the blinds moved up.

The next all-in showdown followed moments later when El Mostafa Ederoua was all-in versus Darko Svesko in the following contest.

El Mostafa Ederoua: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Darko Svesko: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

Neither player connected with the {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} board and ace-king high took it down.

Zhechev Eliminated by Vrakas

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

In a rare all-in showdown in which the chips didn't go in before the flop, Ivan Zhechev had defended the big blind and check-jammed the {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop with the {9-Clubs}{6-Hearts} for an open-ended straight and flush draw.

Georgios Vrakas was ahead with the {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts} for the nut flush draw and that remained to be the case on the {j-Diamonds} turn and {7-Diamonds} river runout.

Martinez Felted by Bise

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Emil Bise
Emil Bise

Jon Ander Martinez entered a coin flip against Emil Bise and was ahead but needed his pocket pair to hold against the Swiss WSOP bracelet and gold ring winner.

Jon Ander Martinez: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Emil Bise: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

The {j-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{6-Clubs} flop kept Martinez in the lead but the {a-Spades} turn improved Bise to the superior two pair. Nothing changed with the {j-Spades} river and Martinez became one of the next casualties in a very frantic opening period.

Jordon Hits Quads to Beat Dijkkamp's Full House

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Terry Jordon
Terry Jordon

In an all in confrontation that ran out in spectacular fashion, Lennart Dijkkamp made an early position raise to 16,000 and Terry Jordon shoved his stack in the middle from the button. Dijkkamp called.

Terry Jordon: {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}
Lennart Dijkkamp: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}

The flop ran out {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} to give Jordon a set of sevens and Dijkkamp a set of queens.

It looked like Jordon was all set to bust and he was stood up behind his chair before the turn came the {7-Diamonds}. That gave Jordon quad sevens and left Dijkkamp looking for a single queen to bring it back. The river was the {6-Spades} and Jordon scooped the pot for a double up.

Alexandru Papazian

Down to the last 72,000 in chips, Portugal's Joao Marques da Silva got it in preflop and received a call by table big stack Alexandru Papazian.

Joao Marques da Silva: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Alexandru Papazian: {a-Spades}{7-Spades}

The {a-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop improved Papazian to two pair and he then made a full house with the {7-Diamonds} turn. Marques Da Silva needed one of the two remaining tens in the deck but bricked the {4-Diamonds} river.

Marchetti Dents Labous

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Manuel Labous looked up the all-in of a shorter stack in Antony Marchetti but had the wrong end of a duel between two pocket pairs when the cards were revealed.

Antony Marchetti: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Manuel Labous: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

The {j-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop further cemented the lead of Marchetti, who locked up the double with the {4-Clubs} turn to make the {a-Spades} river a formality.
