Rabstov and Maglio Butt Heads

Level 24 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Kirill Rabstov opened the action by raising to 40,000 on the button. Vincent Maglio opted to reraise from the big blind to 79,000. Rabstov called.

The flop came down {2-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and Maglio led for 82,000. Rabstov called. The turn was the {5-Diamonds} and both players checked to the {Q-Spades} on the river, where both players checked again.

Maglio showed {9-}{7-} for an air ball and Rabstov took down the pot with his {A-Hearts}{10-Spades} for a pair of tens.

Level 24 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Chris Karambinis - 15th Place
Chris Karambinis - 15th Place

Chris Karambinis got all in against Vincent Maglio preflop.

Karambinis: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Maglio: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

We appeared to be headed for a chop, but a {2-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{k-Clubs} flop gave Maglio a four-flush. The dealer wasted no time completing the draw, as an {8-Hearts} fell on the turn, eliminating Karambinis in 15th.

Silvestri Doubles Through Crowe

Level 24 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Mario Silvestri opened shoved from early middle position and action folded all the way around to Owen Crowe in the big blind. Crowe called quickly.

Silvestri: {J-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Crowe: {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

The flop came down {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}{9-Spades} almost leaving Crowe drawing dead. When the {9-Diamonds} came on the turn, Crowe was dead and that guaranteed a double up for Silvestri. The river was a meaningless {7-Hearts} and with that, Crowe was forced to send over 237,000 chips to Silvestri.

Ricardo Fasanaro Eliminated in 13th Place ($32,977)

Level 25 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Ricardo Fasanaro
Ricardo Fasanaro

From under the gun Alex Dovzhenko moved all in. Action folded all the way around to Ricard Fasanaro in the big blind. He tanked for about two minutes before finally announcing a call.

Fasanaro: {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
Dovzhenko: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Fasanaro had the best hand before the flop came down, and it would stay that way when it came {7-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}. The turn was the {9-Clubs} though, giving Dovzhenko the lead with a pair of nines. Fasanaro could still catch up with a five, or a four on the river for a straight, but unfortunately, it was the {2-Clubs} and he hit the rail in twelfth place.

Mario Silvestri Eliminated in 12th Place ($41,784)

Level 25 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Mario Silvestri - 12th Place
Mario Silvestri - 12th Place

Vincent Maglio raised to 48,000 under the gun, and Mario Silvestri pushed all in from his immediate left for over 400,000. On the button, Nicolas Faure jammed his 1.2 million stack in. Maglio tossed {a-}{q-} face-up into the middle.

Faure: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Silvestri: {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}

We had a classic race on our hands, and a board of {3-Clubs}{k-Spades}{2-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} meant Faure had won it with a pair of kings. Silvestri exited the tournament with a 12th-place finish.

"Play bad one time and call," lamented Maglio, who would have made a straight.

Teichert Bests Arieh

Level 25 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Josh Arieh made it 52,000 to go from under the gun and only Nikolaus Teichert, the big blind, made the call. The flop came {k-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{9-Hearts} and both players checked. Teichert checked the {10-Clubs} turn and Arieh bet 76,000. Teichert decided to come along and the {8-Clubs} came down on the river.

Teichert moved all in for 300,000 and Arieh was put to the test. He was muttering that he was 1,000 (not 100 but 1,000) percent sure he was good. He then even went on to call the clock on himself because he could sit there for 20 minutes. In the end, he ended up folding and Teichert showed {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

Faure Frustrated

Level 25 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Nicolas Faure, in the small blind, checked the river with the board reading {10-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. Sebastien Comel, on the button, bet 290,000.

"I call," Faure said after about 30 seconds. Comel showed him {10-Spades}{8-Clubs} for trip tens, and Faure slammed his chips together in frustration.
