Kings for Mortensen

After Lucille Cailly, who finished runner-up in the 2012 PokerStars and Monte-Carlo® Casino EPT Grand Final back in April, opened only to have a short-stacked Morten Mortensen three-bet all in for 160,000. Cailly made the call and the cards were turned up.

Showdown
Mortensen: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Cailly: {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}

The {2-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} flop gave Cailly a pair of queens, but she needed a little more help in order to eliminate Mortensen. She didn't find it on the {10-Spades} turn, and the {9-Spades} wasn't of any use either. With that, Mortensen doubled to 345,000 while Cailly was left with just 230,000.

Eddie Tasbas
Eddie Tasbas

Duda Eliminates Weigel

Antonin Duda
Antonin Duda

Jens Weigel from Germany shoved all in from the small blind and the chip leader going into the day, Czech Antonin Duda made a cheap call. Weigel was in front when his {A-Spades} {J-Clubs} paired on the {J-Spades} {4-Hearts} {8-Clubs} flop while Duda holding {4-Spades} {5-Spades} needed another five or a four to bust his opponent.

The turn bricked {K-Clubs}, but the {5-Hearts} on the river made all the difference and Weigel was eliminated from the tournament cashing €24,650.

Fernandez Fails to Make a Comeback

Ole Schemion opened from the cutoff only to have Roberto Fernandez shove for around 100,000 from the big blind. Schemion made the call and discovered he was in the lead.

Showdown
Schemion: {K-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}
Fernandez: {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}

Fernandez didn't say much when the {J-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} flop gave him the lead, and maybe that's because he had a feeling the {K-Spades} turn was coming to give it back to Fernandez. The {8-Clubs} river was of no consequence, and Fernandez exited in 27th place.

That means we need to lose just two more players before reaching the final three tables.

Boujenah Getting Short

Ilan Boujenah has a ten big blind stack after he doubled up Farid Chati in a battle of the blinds. All the chips went in pre flop and the cards were exposed.

Boujenah: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Chati: {a-Spades}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades}{6-Hearts}.

A player at the table asked for an eight on the turn so he could have fun sweat. Boujenah, very politely, put him in his place.

She's Back!

Lucille Cailly
Lucille Cailly

Lucille Cailly was having a pretty bad day, but she just doubled and will be feeling a lot happier now after doubling up.

Anaras Alekberovas opened to 35,000 before Ibon Merino three-bet to 79,000 from the button and Cailly shoved from the small blind. Alekberovas folded and Merino made the call.

Merino: {q-Spades}{10-Spades}
Cailly: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

The board ran {5-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades}{k-Hearts}{9-Hearts} to safely see her hand home.

Anaras Beats Aku

Anaras Alekberovas
Anaras Alekberovas

With around 81,000 already in the pot and {8-Clubs} {K-Spades} {8-Diamonds} on the board Lithuanian player Anaras Alekberovas bet 25,000 on the button and the Finn Aku Joentausta check-called from the small blind.

The dealer opened {2-Diamonds} on the turn and Joentausta lead for 41,000 and the Lithuanian made the call. The {7-Hearts} on the river was followed by the 100,000 bet from Joentausta and after thinking about it for a while, Alekberovas made the call.

The Lithuanian flipped {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs} for a pair of kings, ace kicker and that was enough to beat Joentausta's {K-} {J-}.
