Danchev Marches On, Lin Not Pleased

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Celina Lin
Celina Lin

Celina Lin opened the action from under the gun, got a call from Dong Guo and then Dimitar Danchev bumped it up to 15,300. The blinds folded and when Lin called Guo mulled it over but left them to it.

The flop was {q-Spades}{k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and Lin check-called a bet of 11,100 from Danchev. The turn card was the {4-Spades} and a further bet of 25,200 saw Lin make the call to see the river card {5-Spades}. A final check from Lin saw Danchev stare at the board before betting 50,100.

The bet represented nearly half of Lin’s remaining stack but call she did and mucked upon seeing Danchev table the {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}. Lin indicated to Guo that she had {a-}{k-} and wasn’t best please about the result. Danchev just quietly stacked the chips to his ever growing pile.

Le Jossec Busts Chotikul

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

We arrived in time to see Jeffrey Chotikul all in and at risk before the flop for his last 90,000. Chotikul was up against Gabriel Le Jossec who both had him covered and dominated.

Chotikul: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Le Jossec: {K-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The board fell down {2-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{8-Hearts}{3-Hearts}, keeping Le Jossec's kings out in front. Chotikul hit the rail and Le Jossec boosted his stack to right around 400,000.

Davies Five-Bet Jams On Zhu

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Yaxi Zhu opened the betting from the button for 5,000 and Scott Davies in the big blind raised it to 15,000. Zhu went for a four-bet to 50,000. Davies wasted little time in moving all in for around 12,000.

Zhu took her time over her decision but made the fold. “I honestly thought you were going to snap call. I can’t believe you folded.” Davies told Zhu.

Cheong Busts Kim

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Joseph Cheong opened the action and then made the call when David Kim moved all in. Cheong tabled {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} and Kim had the suited {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}.

A final board of {10-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{q-Spades} and not even a sweat for Kim as he was the next player to be eliminated from the tournament.

Danchev Pays Off Jung

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Dimitar Danchev opened under the gun for 5,000 and faced a three-bet to 15,500 from Sunny Jung sat next to him as the blinds folded. Danchev elected to make it 33,000 and Jung made the call after some chip counting.

The flop was [8d 65c 5s]. Danchev bet 22,000 and Jung made the call. The turn came the {a-Clubs} and both players checked to see the river card {7-Clubs}. Danchev checked and Jung moved all in.

Danchev got a count and found out it was 69,000 to call, which he duly did but mucked when he saw the {a-Spades}{q-Spades} of Jung.
