Bhatia Left With Crumbs

Level 27 : 400,000/800,000, 80,000 ante

Alan "TheCockroach" Schein chipped up by forcing a fold from Kunal "Alex_52" Bhatia and it came even worse soon after for Bhatia who jammed the button and Wenhao "pwhwin" Peng called all-in for less than 9 million in the small blind.

Wenhao "pwhwin" Peng: {a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Kunal "Alex_52" Bhatia: {a-Spades}{5-Clubs}

The board came {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and the kicker played.

One hand later, Luis "Xapilskinha" Assuncao Garla raised to 1.6 million and Bhatia was all-in for 1,681,178, which was also called by Alexandros "THE Sheriff" Theologis in the big blind. Theologis check-folded the {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop and Bhatia revealed the {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}, which was trailing the {a-Clubs}{8-Hearts} of Assuncao Garla.

However, the {5-Diamonds} turn and {7-Diamonds} river brought a flush on the board and they chopped it.

Theologis On the Rise

Level 27 : 400,000/800,000, 80,000 ante

Alexandros "THE Sheriff" Theologis raised to 1.6 million first to act and was called by Kunal "Alex_52" Bhatia on the button. The duo opted to check the {7-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop and Theologis checked the {8-Clubs} turn. Bhatia bet the pot for 4.8 million and folded to a shove for 9,413,569 total.

Wenhao "pwhwin" Peng then raised from the button to 1.6 million and Theologis came along out of the big blind. Theologis check-called 1.32 million on the {k-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} flop, the {a-Diamonds} turn and {3-Hearts} river provided no action.

Peng had missed a flushdraw with {q-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and Theologis won the pot with {k-Spades}{2-Hearts} for a pair of kings.
