Fourth Time a Charm?

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

Hassan Bittar was once again down in chips and all in for his last 9,625 chips and {J-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds}. The Lebanese had caught a jack on the flop of a {J-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {3-Spades} {6-Hearts} board though and stayed alive, the cards of the opponent were already mucked.

Breaking Bad

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

The end of level six has come and all players have been sent into a 15-minute break. Three further levels will be played today and the screens currently show 40 out of 59 entries remaining.

Tedeschi and Kavrakov Bust

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Paul-Francois Tedeschi busted shortly after being reduced to a short stack and Atanas Kavrakov left his table after shipping over the remainder of his chips to Miltiadis Kyriakides. The Greek is the current chip leader from what we can tell.

Christoforou on Six Digits

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Joining the action on the {8-Spades} {8-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} turn, Paul-Francois Tedeschi check-raised out of the big blind from 2,000 to 7,000 and Andreas Christoforou called before the Frenchman checked the {3-Spades} river as well. "How much?" Christoforou asked and then bet 15,000 to put Tedeschi all in.

The Frenchman snap-folded.

One hand later, Christoforou raised from 800 to 2,000 and was called before the {3-Clubs} {A-Spades} {7-Hearts} flop got checked through. The opponent then bet 5,000 and enforced a fold.

Three Players Out

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Ahmed Mehmed Ahmed, Sevket Yildiz and Vasileios Charalampakis have all been eliminated recently. The Greek and the Bulgarian decided to re-enter straight away though, which is not possible for Yildiz as he busted the second time on Day 1b.

Saliba Busts in Three-Way Pot

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

After a raise to 700 by Khalil Tawil and a call, Toufic Saliba moved all in for 6,925 and was called by Chino Rheem as well as initial raiser Tawil. On the {2-Clubs} {4-Spades} {8-Spades} flop, Tawil was put all in for his last 7,250 by Rheem and called with {A-Hearts} {3-Hearts} for a gutshot. Rheem had pocket kings and Saliba was drawing slim with {J-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}.

The {9-Diamonds} turn was a brick, however the {5-Hearts} on the river awarded the pot to Tawil. "Nice call," Rheem said and most likely referred to the preflop one.

Fingers in the Cookie Jar

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Ates Hikmet was the preflop aggressor from the button and raised the {2-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {4-Hearts} {6-Spades} turn from 925 to 2,100. Ara Melkistian called the raise out of the big blind and then quickly check-called a bet of 3,100 within a heart beat after the {3-Diamonds} river. Hikmet showed the {2-Clubs} first and Melkistian had that beat with {K-Clubs} {4-Spades}, the LEI Main Event champion mucked.
