Matt Warburton

Adinolfo Eliminated by Tous Rosich

Christian Zetzsche

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Bernard Mendy raised to 11,000 from under the gun and earned two callers in David Tous Rosich from the next seat and Alessandro Adinolfo.

The flop came 5♦3♥2♦ and it checked to Adinolfo, who bet 15,000. Mendy called only for Tous Rosich to check-shove for around 150,000. Adinolfo then also called all-in and Mendy vaulted out of his chair, exclaiming "ah putain," then folding.

Alessandro Adinolfo: 4♥4♠
David Tous Rosich: Q♥Q♠

The 8♦ turn and K♠ river completed the board for Adinolfo to bust.

"You win?" Tous Rosich asked and Mendy replied "of course I win, king-high flush draw."

Lewis Sent Packing

Tyler Foran

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Romain Lewis jammed for about 44,000 in early position, and the action folded around to Mats Ullereng in the big blind as he dropped a chip to make the call.

Romain Lewis: J♥10♥
Mats Ullereng: A♦K♥

Lewis was a small underdog but the Q♠10♠6♥ flop gave him the lead with a pair of tens. It was short-lived though as the A♥ fell on the turn, and Lewis couldn't complete his flush draw as the Q♣ paired the board on the river.

Tyler Foran

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jaume Niell Alomar: K♥Q♣
Dara O'Kearney: K♦9♦

The K♠6♦2♣ flop was looking promising for Alomar but the 9♣ turn gave O'Kearney two pair to take the lead. The 8♠ river was a brick as Alomar tapped the table and said good luck to the players.

On a flop of K♥Q♠3♦, Vincent Daynes bet 6,000 and subsequently called a check-raise to 18,000 by Andrea Zigrossi in the blinds. They checked the J♠ on the turn and the 7♦ fell on the river. Zigrossi bet 30,000 after some consideration and Daynes folded his A♥J♥ face-up.

The same table also features Sho Homma, who appears to be one of the biggest stacks in the room right now.

The following hand, Fort opened again and called when Renji Mao jammed for around 70,000.

Fort had A♣K♣ and was up against 10♠10♣. Fort became the favorite after the K♥3♠6♣ flop and held out to scoop in consecutive pots after the 7♠ turn and A♦ river.
