Lunkin Runs Out of Chips

Vitaly Lunkin (on Day 1a) - out
Vitaly Lunkin (on Day 1a) - out

In a battle of the blinds, Vitaly Lunkin went to war with his {A-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} and his stack of about 260,000 chips. Mads Wissing called Lunkin's four-bet shove with {6-Diamonds} {6-Clubs}, and the race was on.

Lunkin shot out to an early lead on the {A-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {2-Hearts}, but his edge was short-lived. The {6-Hearts} turned to leave him dead right there, and the {K-Clubs} river is the last card Lunkin will see today.

Moorman Gives Streletskiy a Wave

Under the gun, Konstantin Streletskiy shoved his last 83,000 chips into the middle. Right next door, Chris Moorman reshoved for his full stack of 230,000, and that scared everyone else out of the pot. Streletskiy was heads-up and at risk, and the news was not good.

Showdown
Streletskiy: {J-Hearts} {J-Clubs}
Moorman: {Q-Spades} {Q-Clubs}

The board ran out {A-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {A-Spades} {9-Hearts} {8-Spades}, and Moorman's overpair held strong to earn him the knockout.

The Swede is Coming

Things are going rather well for Dennis Bejedal here in this level, and we've just seen him send another player to the rail. It happened to be Rupert Elder, and he was the initial preflop raiser. Eli Heath three-bet in position, and Bejedal made a cold four-bet to 74,000 total. Elder shoved for about 280,000 total, Heath folded, and Bejedal made the quick call with his covering stack and the best hand.

Showdown
Elder: {9-Clubs} {9-Spades}
Bejedal: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}

Elder looked pretty bummed out, and he failed to catch up as the {4-Clubs} {J-Spades} {J-Hearts} {5-Spades} {K-Clubs} board sent him off to the payout desk.

Chris Moorman
Chris Moorman

From the button, Chris Moorman raised to 13,500. Vojtech Ruzicka called out of the big blind and the flop came down {9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}. Ruzicka checked and Moorman fired 18,500. Ruzicka called.

The turn brought the {5-Diamonds} and Ruzicka checked again. Moorman fired 50,500 and Ruzicka check-raised to 103,500. Moorman flatted.

The river was the {10-Diamonds} and Ruzicka slid all of his chips forward for an all-in bet worth 208,000. Moorman took some time and then called.

Ruzicka tabled the {A-Spades}{10-Hearts} for a rivered pair of tens. Moorman angrily tabled the {9-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and a pair of nines and lost the pot. He was crushed back to 235,000, while Ruzicka moved to nearly 700,000.

Timex Doubles Back

Mike McDonald got the last ~145,000 of his chips into the middle with {9-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}, but he ran his pair into the overpair {J-Spades} {J-Hearts} of Nicolas Leger.

We missed the board, but we know there was a life-saving nine-ball on the river for McDonald, and he's found a lucky double to get back to the chip average.
