Bukara's Back

Perica Bukara
Perica Bukara

Arnaud Mattern was only in the lead for a hand or two before across the room Perica Bukara lurched ahead of him.

The flop read {5-Hearts}{10-Spades}{j-Diamonds} when Michal Polchlopek got his whole stack in. The cards looked like so:

Polchlopek: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Bukara: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The turn and river came the {9-Spades} and {3-Spades} respectively, meaning that Polchlopek did not improve and his whole 400,000+ stack became the property of Bukara. "Ja!" cried Bukara before rising to shake hands with the now-busted Polchlopek.

With that, Bukara is back in the lead on 1.2 million.

Pessed Off

And it's like dominoes on Perica Bukara's table. As soon as Terrazas was out, Jean-Daniel Pessina fell in the very next hand he held {A-} {J-} against {J-} {10-} of Kevin Stani. Stani though managed to flop trip {10-}'s and that was enough to send Pessina (playing his first ever live tournament) to the rail.

Kärkkäinen Hits the Jackpot

Seppo Parkkinen
Seppo Parkkinen

Antti Kärkkäinen was all in for 157,000 and really didn't expect to get two callers. Seppo Parkkinen moved all in over top, and Attilio Donato had both players covered. Kärkkäinen had to like what he saw at showdown.

Kärkkäinen: {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Parkkinen: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Donato: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

The board fell {j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{5-Spades}{8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}, and Kärkkäinen spiked a set on the river just for fun. He is now in possession of 540,000 while Parkkinen was left with 155,000 and Donato with 270,000.

Weekes Takes Seconds...

Chady Merhej opened preflop to 29,000 and Jonathan Weekes reraised behind to 75,000 only for Mattias Jorstedt to push all-in from the blinds. Merhej folded but Weekes made the call.

Weekes: {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts}
Jorstedt: {J-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}

Board: {5-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {8-Diamonds}

With that big pot, Jonathan Weekes moves up among the chip leaders once more while Jorstedt is out.

Heinz Meanz Outz

Heinz Kamutzki pushed all-in over the top of Anatoli Jevtejev's huge raise, the Russian taking a long time before making the call. But the call, he did make.

Kamutzki: {K-Diamonds} {10-Hearts}
Jevtejev: {A-Spades} {7-Spades}

The flop was {K-Spades} {J-Spades} {7-Diamonds}, also known as something for everyone. But the {5-Spades} turn meant Kamutzki was drawing dead and he was eliminated after the {J-Hearts} river.

Konstantin Bilyaver WIns Huge Three-Way All-in

Steven van Zadelhoff - very depressed.
Steven van Zadelhoff - very depressed.

With the board reading {10-Clubs} {A-Hearts} {9-Spades} in a three-way pot between Konstantin Bilyaver, Chady Merhej and Steven van Zadelhoff, it was checked to the Dutchman who bet 52,000.

Bilyaver then check/raised to 135,000 and suddenly Merhej moved all-in! Van Zadelhoff briefly now thought and also pushed all-in and suddenly the onus was back on Bilyaver who stood up in disbelief at what he was seeing. After about 20 seconds, he also made the call as the rest of the table, including Arnaud Mattern and Luca Pagano could only exclaim, "Wow!" at what they were seeing.

Van Zadelhoff: {A-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}
Bilyaver: {10-Diamonds} {10-Clubs}
Merhej: {9-Hearts} {9-Clubs}

Unbelievably, Merhej was drawing dead, while Bilyaver only had to avoid one of two case aces to nearly triple up. The {2-Diamonds} turn was a blank, as was the {Q-Hearts} river. Van Zadelhoff and Merhej both looked very disappointed, the latter eliminated.

Van Zadelhoff dropped to around 300,000 while Bilyaver's all-in was for about 420,000 meaning he is probably now at the 1.2 million level now and nearly the very top of the pile.
