Another Double Elimination

Level 6 : 200/500, 500 ante

Zhiping Zeng busted for the second time in rather quick succession and another three-way all in reduced the field by two as Vlad Tatu sent Riad Chahaf and Kfir Ivgi to the rail in the dying minutes of the level. The chips had gone in preflop with all three players turning over pocket pairs, and Tatu had the best of it on his second bullet for the day.

Riad Chahaf: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Kfir Ivgi: {3-Hearts}{3-Spades}
Vlad Tatu: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

Both Chahaf and Ivgi picked up straight outs but came up blank with a board of {5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{4-Spades}.

Cuza Busts Farcas and Toma

Level 6 : 200/500, 500 ante

Leontin Iancu has been eliminated and he was joined on the rail by Florin Farcas and Stefan Toma. It was a three-way all in that decided over the fate of Farcas and Toma, who got their stacks into the middle with the turn showing {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{10-Spades}, with Mihail Cuza making the call as the biggest stack in the showdown.

Florin Farcas: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Stefan Toma: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Mihail Cuza: {2-Clubs}{2-Spades}

The {k-Diamonds} fell on the river to pair the board and give Cuza a winning full house, sending both opponents to the rail in spectacular fashion.

Iancovici Doubles Through Toderita

Level 6 : 200/500, 500 ante

On a {q-Spades}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop, the action escalated between Raoul Ianvocivi and Liviu Catalin Toderita with the latter check-raising from 5,800 to 20,000. Iancovici only had 20,700 in total and moved all in, Toderita called.

Raoul Iancovici: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Liviu Catalin Toderita: {j-Spades}{10-Spades}

Once again, Toderita had a player at risk with a pair and flush draw versus overpair, but this time the {9-Diamonds} turn and {6-Clubs} river kept the player at risk in contention. Iancovici doubled and Toderita dropped back to the starting stack.

Chisu and Zeng Re-Enter

Level 6 : 200/500, 500 ante
Vasil Giliazetdinov
Vasil Giliazetdinov

Vasil Giliazetdinov has been among the most recent casualties and Zhiping Zeng lasted all but a few minutes before sending his stack over to Andre Marques Moreira. Zeng and Danut Chisu subsequently re-entered and Moreira lost a small pot against Alexandru Gavrilut.

With the completed board showing {10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{k-Spades}, Gavrilut checked and called a bet of 2,700 by Marques Moreira, who was caught bluffing with the {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}. Gavrilut showed his {j-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for a pair of tens and the Portuguese tapped the table.

Chisu Eliminated

Level 6 : 200/500, 500 ante
Danut Chisu
Danut Chisu

The king-high board was all but rushed away and Danut Chisu, who was a big stack not long ago, departed while his {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} were still showing. His chips were sent over to Eusebiu Jalba, who had faded the diamonds and one overcard with {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts} to sent Chisu to the rail on his first attempt.

Liviu Catalin Toderita

On the [Ks7c3dc] flop, Kfir Ivgi bet 5,200 and Radu Simionescu raised to 15,000 with very few chips behind. Liviu Catalin Toderita moved all in for 22,400 to force a fold from Ivgi and Simionescu called it off.

Radu Simionescu: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Liviu Catalin Toderita: {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

Instead of hitting the flush, Toderita went runner-runner full with the {q-Spades} turn and {k-Diamonds} river to eliminate Simionescu.
