Xiao Jiang

Xiao Jiang pushed from the hijack for 116,000 and behind him, Victor Ruiz Melgar in the cutoff and Amit Aroch in the small blind also went all-in.

Xiao Jiang: {j-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
Victor Ruiz Melgar: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Amit Aroch: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

Jiang shook his head and said in Spanish "I have nothing," yet he had two live cards against two opponents. Ruiz was calling for clubs and his wish was granted on a spectacular run out of {10-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}{k-Clubs}{7-Clubs}.

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Carlos Marina was just gifted a big pot that left several players at the table with a surprised expression on the face. Marina's opponent check-called a bet of 30,000 with a double gutshot and then jammed the river of a {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{3-Spades}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} board when he missed. Marina snap-called with {j-Clubs}{j-Spades} for the full house and had his opponent covered.

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Dominik Nitsche
Dominik Nitsche

Dominik Nitsche and Petros Theodosiou had clashed not long ago with the better end for the latter but this time the tides changed in favor of Nitsche. The 888poker ambassador three-bet and quickly called the shove of Theodosiou for the last 114,000.

Dominik Nitsche: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}
Petros Theodosiou: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

The board came {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades} and that sent Theodosiou back to a short stack.
