Aldemir Eliminated by Toma

Level 8 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Koray Aldemir
Koray Aldemir

On a flop of {7-Hearts}{8-Spades}{k-Spades} Tsugunari Toma checked from the big blind before Koray Aldemir bet 25,000 from under the gun. Toma then re-raised to 51,000 sending Aldemir into the tank.

Aldemir used one of his time extensions before announcing all in for 180,000. Toma asked for a count then made the call moments later.

Tsugunari Toma: {10-Spades}{6-Spades}
Koray Aldemir: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Aldemir had the lead with top pair against Toma who was drawing to a flush.

The {j-Spades} on the turn surged Toma to the lead with a flush leaving Aldemir needing to catch another spade to take down the pot.

The {2-Hearts} on the river would not help and Aldemir was sent to the rail.

Shan Folds to Nitsche

Level 8 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

From the cutoff, Huang Shan raised to 18,000 before Dominik Nitsche three-bet next to act on the button to 56,000.

Action folded back to Shan, and he called as the flop landed {A-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}.

Shan checked and Nitsche bet 40,000.

"Should I gamble?" asked Shan.

Shan then used one of his time extension buttons, and after thinking for a little longer, he added, "Ok. I fold my ace-queen to you."

Nitsche flashed his {A-Diamonds} and collected the pot.

"What suit was your queen?" asked Michael Soyza.

"Huh?" responded Shan.

"Was it spades, hearts, diamonds ..." Soyza continued.

"I don't care about the suit. It doesn't matter. The card matters." Shan concluded.

Level 8 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Loeser Applies the Pressure on Becker

Level 8 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Manig Loeser raised to 20,000 from the button and was called by Johannes Becker in the big blind.

Both players checked the {9-Clubs}{3-Spades}{8-Diamonds} flop before the {5-Clubs} dropped on the turn.

Becker bet 32,000. Loeser called.

The {q-Clubs} completed the board and Becker bet 20,000. Loeser's 30-second time allocation ran out before he used one of his time-extension discs giving him an additional minute.

He then raised it up to 158,000, which was enough to take down the pot, after Becker mucked his hand moments later.

From the big blind, Mustapha Kanit moved all in for 119,000. Martini moved all in for 318,000 as a response, and Aldemir peeked back down at his cards and then called all in for 225,000 total.

Aldemir lost just two big blinds in the hand, while Martini dropped down to a 15-big blind chip stack.
