Fortunate Double for Demosthenous

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Demos Demosthenous
Demos Demosthenous

Demos Demosthenous got his stack in preflop with the {k-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and Peter Jaksland looked him up from the button with the {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}. The board came {k-Hearts}{9-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{q-Spades} to give Demosthenous a full house and Jaksland was left short.

However, the Dane doubled right after with ace-king versus sixes and hit a full house himself to remain in contention.

Ivanov and Harush Eliminated

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

On the {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} flop, Simeon Ivanov got his stack in and received an instant call from Darius Neagoe. Ivanov showed {q-Spades}{q-Hearts} for middle set, but Neagoe had flopped a straight with the {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. The [9h6 turn and {3-Spades} river provided no help for Ivanov.

At almost the same time, Udi Harush three-bet all in with his short stack and tabled {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}. Cristian Tardea called with the {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds} and there was no upset on the board {10-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}.

Hatipoglu Eliminated by Rablou

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Bahadir Hatipoglu
Bahadir Hatipoglu

The preflop action is unknown but on a flop of {q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, the fireworks kicked off between Vasile Rablou and Bahadir Hatipoglu. There was a raise to 32,000 in front of Rablou and Hatipoglu reraised to 85,000 out of the blinds. Rablou gave it some time and moved all in, which Hatipoglu sigh-called for a hefty 160,000.

Bahadir Hatipoglu: {q-Clubs}{5-Clubs}
Vasile Rablou: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}

Hatipoglu picked up a ton of equity with the {9-Clubs} turn, but the {j-Diamonds} river ended the roller coaster ride of Hatipoglu with a big bang.

Parlafes Eliminated by Virlanuta

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Dany Parlafes
Dany Parlafes

Dany Parlafes lost a big pot in the previous hand and dropped to fewer than 50,000. Soon after, he faced a raise to 8,000 by Mihail Cuza and a call by big stack Marian Virlanuta from one seat over. Parlafes jammed for the last 45,500 and that forced out Cuza, however, Virlanuta made the call.

Dany Parlafes: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
Marian Virlanuta: {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

Parlafes had plenty of outs and even drew to a chop via straight on the board, but ultimately came up on {10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} to become the next casualty. Virlanuta pulled ahead of Derek Reid once more, who happens to sit on the very same table.

Bleau and Naste Bow Out

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Iulian Bleau
Iulian Bleau

Iulian Bleau lost his short stack with {a-Spades}{q-Clubs} against the {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs} of Ionut Decher and the next shorter stack to fall was Bogdan Nastase. He bowed out against fellow Romanian and Bogdan, Bogdan Berinde, when the chips went in preflop.

Bogdan Nastase: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Bogdan Berinde: {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

The {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{9-Spades} flop improved Berinde to a pair of kings, and the {q-Diamonds} turn and {9-Clubs} river changed nothing whatsoever.
