Giudice Runs into Big Slick

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Giovanni Giudice was all in for 230,000 from the cutoff. Juuso Luokkanen put in his last 190,000 from the small blind for the cards to go on their backs.

Juuso Luokkanen: AK
Giovanni Giudice: Q10

Neither player connected on the [7s7g5hjd4c] runout so Luokkanen's ace-high was good enough to take in the pot.

Stroke Gives Agalliu a Lesson on How to Win Tournaments

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Shawn Stroke
Shawn Stroke

Three players went to the turn on a board of K3Q8 with around 120,000 in the middle when Adriatik Agalliu bet 75,000 from the big blind.

Shawn Stroke called on the button, while Iman Ghashayar folded in the small blind. The river came the 9 and Agalliu checked over to Stroke.

Stroke then tossed in a handful of the new white 100,000 chips, enough to put Agalliu all in, and Agalliu quickly called for his last 125,000. Stroke then turned over J10 for the rivered straight and Agalliu slammed his cards down on the table before making his exit.

"Nice river. That's how you win tournaments," Stroke said as he stacked up the pot.

Guengoer Doubles Through Herzog

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Goekhan Guengoer on the button found himself at risk for 90,000 chips against Tal Herzog in early position.

Goekhan Guengoer: 66
Tal Herzog: KQ

On a board of 310QJ2, Guengoer stood up and was ready to leave as Herzog hit top pair on the turn. But the other players at the table called him back, because he didn't see he had a flush on the river to double up.

Runout Stuns Tsang

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Anson Tsang
Anson Tsang

Anson Tsang opened to 30,000 from middle position and was called by Patrick Boernicke from the cutoff. Christodoulos Agioploudis, the big stack, raised enough to put both players all in. Tsang, who had around 375,000, called for his tournament life before Boernicke folded.

Anson Tsang: 9x9x
Christodoulos Agioploudis: 8x8x

Tsang was the huge favorite and it remained that way after the K66 flop. The 6 turn changed nothing, but the 6 river gave both players quads with a king kicker.

Tsang shook his head in disbelief as he was denied a double up.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Yehuda Cohen: A5
Hyun Kim: A9
