Vihikainen Falls Next

Frank Visser

Level 10 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Aki Vihikainen was down to just 60,000, which he got in as first to act. It folded to Hristo Bogdanov in the cutoff, who was the only interested party and flicked in a call.

Aki Vihikainen: A♥A♠10♠10♦ All in
Hristo Bogdanov: K♥K♦9♦3♦

Vihikainen had found a monster with his last chips, but it mattered little as Bogdanov made trip nines on the 2♠6♥9♣9♥2♣ board to knock the Finn out anyway.

Curiosity Does Not Get the Best of Montagnolli

Level 11 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Daniel Montagnolli in the big blind and "Diego Armando" in the hijack checked through a turn of 10♠2♣A♣Q♣. Montagnolli checked the 2♦ river as well before "Diego Armando" fired a pot-sized bet of 150,000.

Montagnolli spent quite some time in the tank but ultimately decided to fold.

"It's so hard to fold after four time banks, I'm so curious," Montagnolli admitted as the pot was shipped to his opponent.

Level 11 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Sonny Franco had raised in the hijack before he called the three-bet to 144,000 by Nikolaos Lampropoulos on the button.

Franco committed his stack of 124,000 on the 4♥K♣3♣ flop and was snapped off by Lampropoulos.

Sonny Franco: K♥Q♠10♠4♦ All in
Nikolaos Lampropoulos: A♠A♥6♥3♦

Franco had flopped two pair and made a full house on the 4♣ turn to take a commanding lead. Lampropoulos had just two outs in the deck, but he hit one on the A♦ river to send the Frenchman to the rail.

Level 11 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Youness Barakat had raised to 42,000 under the gun and was called by Cesar Garcia in the hijack and Shamil Patel on the button.

Barakat shoved in his stack of 105,000 on the 7♥2♦9♥ flop and Garcia committed his 180,000 chips as well. Patel called with the covering stack as the trio showed down.

Youness Barakat: A♥A♣J♣6♠ All in
Cesar Garcia: A♠10♣9♣7♠ All in
Shamil Patel: A♦J♥9♦5♥

Patel made a flush on the K♦3♥ river to scoop the pot, sending Garcia and Barakat to the rail.

Bedell Busts to Ertural

Frank Visser

Level 11 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

The action was caught on a flop of 5♠Q♠9♥. Tom-Aksel Bedell checked from the big blind to Harun Ertural on the button, who bet 35,000. Bedell then raised to 125,000, after which Ertural put him all-in for 350,000.

Bedell let out a big sigh but called a few moments later.

Tom-Aksel Bedell: K♠K♥J♦8♠ All in
Harun Ertural: Q♦J♠6♦2♠

Bedell was ahead with his kings and remained so on the 7♥ turn. The 6♥ river made Ertural two pair, however, and sent the Norwegian to the rail shortly before the break.

At another table, Alex Livingston was seen with a huge stack of nearly two million.
