Seidel Shows His Class to Best Carter

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

On a {5-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds} board, Erik Seidel checked out of the big blind and Simon Carter bet 9,000. Seidel called and checked the {j-Spades} river to Carter.

Carter bet 16,000 and after some more thought, Seidel called. Carter opened {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades} for ace-high and Seidel picked up the pot with {10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

"Wow!" said Carter. "I thought I would make a five fold there! What would I have had to make it? 40?"

Seidel remained quiet as he raked in the pot.

"That's the difference between me and Eric," continued Carter. "I'm a five and he's a ten."

Pekarek Peels Aces, Finds Good Action

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Jeremy Pekarek was all in preflop for 38,800 and he was up against two players with inferior pocket pairs. Mikita Badziakouski had Pekarek covered an he tabled {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} while the other player had the shortest stack as well as the worst starting hand: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}.

Pekarek faded any bad card on the {k-Clubs}{7-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Hearts} runout and took down the whole pot, improving to 110,000 or so. Badziakouski dropped to 45,000 and the other player left the tournament area.

Three Barrels By Aldemir

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Koray Aldemir was the initial raiser and picked up a caller in the blinds. Aldemir fired three barrels on a board of {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} and the final one was worth 42,400, which represented the remainder of his stack. While his opponent tanked, it would be no threat for the German High Roller regular as the pot was pushed to him shortly after without any showdown.

Yan Loses Flip to Del Vecchio

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Mike Del Vecchio raised and four-bet jammed into David Yan, which resulted in a classic race for the tournament life of Yan.

Mike Del Vecchio: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
David Yan: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

On a board of {q-Hearts}{7-Spades}{5-Spades}{j-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, Del Vecchio turned a set to leave Yan empty-handed.

"I think you got me," Yan immediately said and the stacks were counted. Del Vecchio had 88,400 at his disposal and Yan was covered with a stack of around 83,000.

Graham Can't Improve

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Connie Graham
Connie Graham

Connie Graham defended out of the blinds against a raise by Maxwell Young in early position and they got it in after a {9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop with Graham at risk. She tabled {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for the open-ender and flush draw, while Young had {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} for the overpair.

The {9-Diamonds} turn and {4-Spades} river were both blanks and that spelled the end for Graham.

At almost the same time, Yunye Lu had to forfeit the remainder of his stack to Fabian Quoss and Sylvain Loosli also departed.
