De Wolfe's Kings

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Roland de Wolfe raised from under the gun to 45,000. Jonathan Karamalikis made the call from the cutoff and the flop came down {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}. De Wolfe checked, opting not to fire a continuation bet and Karamalikis checked behind.

The turn brought the {9-Spades} and both players checked again to see the {2-Clubs} fall on the river. De Wolfe fired 60,000, but Karamalikis folded. De Wolfe flashed the {K-Clubs}{K-Spades} and pushed his stack to 900,000 in chips.

Queens for Hansimikali

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Benjamin McLean opened to 100,000 preflop only to have Manuel Hansimikali move all in from the small blind for 277,000.

McLean made the call tabling his {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts} to have Hansimikali needing to hold with his {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}.

The board ran out {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} to see Hansimikali double to 580,000 as McLean was left with just 150,000 in chips.

Sabat Makes Big River Call

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

From the button, Peco Stojanovski limped in and Eddy Sabat and Reza Vakili completed and checked their options respectively to see a {A-Spades}{6-Spades}{10-Spades} flop fall.

Stojanovski fired out 25,000 and Sabat was the lone caller to see the {8-Spades} land on the turn as both players checked it through.

The river landed the {Q-Clubs}, and following a Sabat check, Stojanovski fired out 85,000.

Sabat deliberated for many moments before making the call tabling his {A-Clubs}{2-Hearts} to best Stojanovski's {9-Clubs}{6-Clubs} as he moved to 425,000 in chips.

Amourette Cracks Aces

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

On a flop of {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} Tom Rafferty fired out a bet of 115,000 and Antoine Amourette made the call to see the {5-Diamonds} land on the turn.

Rafferty checked and Amourette fired out 160,000 only to have Rafferty move all in. Amourette instantly made the call for roughly his last 600,000.

Rafferty: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}
Amourette: {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}

With Amourette in great shape to double if he was to fade an ace, nine or diamond, he would successfully see the {J-Spades} land on the river to double well over the 1,200,000-chip mark.

De Wolfe Doubles to One Milli

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Reza Vakili opened to 50,000 from the hijack and Roland de Wolfe made the call to see a {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{A-Spades} flop fall.

Vakili fired out a continuation-bet of 80,000 with de Wolfe making the call before both players checked the {K-Clubs} on the turn.

With the {6-Clubs} spiking on the river, Vakili responded by moving all in, only to have de Wolfe immediately snap-call for his last 385,000.

Vakili tabled his {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a complete bluff as de Wolfe's {A-Hearts}{J-Spades} would see him collect the pot to move to 1,060,000 while Vakili slipped to 605,000 in chips.
