Garaway Takes From Muehloecker

Level 6 : 300/500, 500 ante

Antoine Saout and Thomas Muehloecker were among those to register in the current or last level, and they ended up at the same table.

Muehloecker just lost a pot when paying off the 5,000 bet by Glen Garaway on the {10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} river. Garaway showed the {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and that was good enough to win the pot.

Pregowski Eliminated

Level 6 : 300/500, 500 ante

Kfir Ivgi jammed up his stack when he three-bet all in for around 20,000, facing a raise to 1,300 and two calls.

Krzysztof Pregowski, who had started well into Day 1b, has seen his stack get reduced to only 12,000 lately and he just ended up all in with {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts} on the {K-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop. Ramlal Basdeo looked him up with {A-Spades}{K-Clubs} and two blanks later Pregowski was eliminated.

The same table now also features Tuomo Niskanen, who three-bet an open raise by Olabode Akinnugba from 1,300 to 3,700. Akinnugba called and checked the [Qd7h3h| flop, but quickly folded when Niskanen continued for 3,300.

Jordon Back in Action

Level 6 : 300/500, 500 ante

Carlos Sanchez Diaz once again used his overbetting to get value from an opponent and had a suited king for two pair to get pair off. The river showed {K-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts} and Sanchez Diaz faced a bet of 3,000. He raised to 15,000 and was called, revealing {K-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for two pair, his opponent mucked {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades} in disgust.

Last but not least, Terry Jordon had two players at risk on the {K-Spades}{J-Hearts}{6-Spades}{A-Spades} turn. His two opponents held {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs} and {Q-Clubs}{10-Spades}, prompting Jordon to call for a spade with his {J-Spades}{10-Hearts}. Sure enough, the {Q-Spades} came on the river to improve Jordon and he scored the double knockout.
