Action Slows A Little

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

No further eliminations or big pots in the last while. There have been a few unanswered all ins from the short stacks and a number of raise-folds, but that's about it. There is just under an hour of play remaining today, so plenty of time for that to change.

Troyanovskiy Shoves the River

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Vladimir Troyanovskiy opened the action for 13,000 and Byron Kaverman three-bet to 33,000. Troyanovskiy thought it over and made the call.

They both checked the flop of {6-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} and saw the turn come the {10-Diamonds}. Troyanovskiy check-raised Kaverman’s 26,000 bet to 66,000 and Kaverman made the call.

The river was the {a-Diamonds} and Troyanovskiy shoved for 130,000. Kaverman had 150,000 left and thought for a long time, checking his cards several times before folding. Troyanovskiy emerged from under the hood he had been hiding in and greedily grabbed his chips back before the rest were pushed to him.

Huge Pot For Pogodin

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Sunny Jung opened the action and Konstantin Pogodin flat called before Michael Tureniec three-bet squeezed. Jun opted to fold but Pogodin moved all in and got a call from Tureniec.

Pogodin had got tricky with {q-Hearts}{q-Spades} but was up against the legitimate {a-Spades}{k-Spades} of Tureniec.

The board ran out {10-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{9-Hearts} and Pogodin scored a massive pot off the one time chip leader

Mike McDonald Eliminated in 25th Place (HK$202,000)

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Mike McDonald - 25th Place
Mike McDonald - 25th Place

Yaxi Zhu raised to 12,000 from the cutoff and found calls from Vladimir Troyanovskiy from the button and Mike McDonald from the small blind. The flop came down {4-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and McDonald checked. Zhu continued for 18,000 prompting Troyanovskiy to fold. McDonald, however, stuck around.

The {10-Clubs} hit the felt on the turn and McDonald checked for a second time. Zhu continued her aggression with a bet of 39,000. McDonald came over the top with a check-raise to 110,000 and Zhu flatted.

The {A-Hearts} finished the board and McDonald moved all in for about 240,000. Zhu snapped him off, rolling over {Q-Hearts}{J-Spades} for the nut straight. McDonald tabled {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs} before his cards were pulled into the muck. He was eliminated in 25th place and Zhu assumed the chip lead with about 940,000.
