Late Chip Changes

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

There's a group of half a dozen players that might end up as the chip leader for Day 1d while several others are struggling and have been eliminated or lost a lot of chips. Only some 90 hopefuls remain right now.

Del Piero Nearing the Average

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Enzo Del Piero had been as short as 20,000 but doubled and just now busted an opponent when his {k-Clubs}{k-Spades} was way ahead versus {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}. On a board of {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{4-Hearts}, the kings hit top set and that dealt the final blow.

Del Piero was then getting involved in table chat with Edward Overall and both nearly agreed to get it in blind if there was no other action from other players. That didn't happen, as no heads-up pot between them emerged.

Andreou Holds With Aces

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

On the heads-up turn of {7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades}, Anthony Andreou faced the shove of the player on the button for 22,100 and as his shot clock ran down, he eventually made the call with two seconds remaining.

The button turned over {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} and Andreou was ahead with the {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}. A blank {7-Hearts} on the river and Andreou raked in the pot.

Allen Vanishes; Lee Climbs

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Kevin Allen was spotted on his way out and Nicholas Lee raked in the pot.

Lee was kind enough to provide the details as he raised and called the three-bet shove with king-queen to face the ace-queen of Allen for 17,000. A king appeared to send the Brit to the rail.

Ersoy Felted in Big Pot

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Serkan Ersoy
Serkan Ersoy

Serkan Ersoy had run up his stack to 90,000 after he was down to around 40,000 and just now called a raise and then four-bet shoved when facing a three-bet by big stack Nikolay Ponomarev. The latter eventually called and the initial raiser folded.

Serkan Ersoy: {6-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Nikolay Ponomarev: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

The board came {j-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and Ersoy was sent to the rail while Ponomarev became a contender for the Day 1d lead.

Counts and Bustouts

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Grummitt Busts to Demetriou

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Paul Grummitt was all in for a mere 10,100 and he picked up a call by George Demetriou.

Grummitt with the {a-Spades}{5-Spades} and Demetriou with the {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} both tabled ace-rags and the {k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} board ensured that the kicker played.

Kellett Loses a Big Pot

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Richard Kellett
Richard Kellett

In the last hand of the previous level that lasted several minutes into the break, a very big pot played out on table 12 and Richard Kellett was left with crumbs.

In a battle hijack versus cutoff, Kellett raised to 2,200 and called a three-bet to 7,000 by Maxime Chilaud. On the {7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop, Kellett checked and called a bet worth 5,000 to then check-call another 17,000 on the {a-Spades} turn. That created a pot of 60,500 and Kellett checked the {7-Spades} on the river.

Chilaud jammed for 58,800 and Kellett used one time bank before making the call.

Chilaud tabled {a-Hearts}{q-Spades} and Kellett nodded, tried to muck his cards but the {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} were revealed as per all-in showdown rule.
