Hicks Four-Bets From The Blinds

The action folded around to Joe Ebanks in late position and he opened the betting with a raise to 6,500. One player folded and Senal Egziabher made it 15,000 to play from the hijack. The button and small blind folded an after Kenny Hicks double checked Ebanks' stack he four-bet to 31,600.

Ebanks instantly got out of the way, as did Egziabher albeit after 20 seconds of deliberation.

Stelmak Eliminates Two Players in One Hand, Almost

Vanders-missen
Vanders-missen

Peter Jepsen was eliminated and Kevin Vandesrmissen was all but eliminated in a three-way pre flop showdown.

Dmitry Stelmak was the villain in this piece. The Russian opened to 6,000 from mid position and watched as Jepsen shoved for 30,800 from the hijack and Vandersmissen shoved for 87,200 from the button. Stelmak tanked for a few minutes and made the call all-in. Before Stelmak opened his hand Vandermissen said, "You should've folded jacks!"

Showdown:

Stelmak: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Jepsen: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}
Vandersmissen: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

The board ran {6-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{k-Spades}{a-Diamonds} to hand the pot Stelmak.

After a count down Vandermissen had 1,100 chips left. They went it the next hand and it was Stelmak that fisnished him off.

Dos Santos Destroys Aledmir

Andre Dos Santos won a battle of the short stacks against Koray Aledmir and now has over 100,000 chips

Koray Aledmir open-shoved for 38,200 from under the gun and although he queried how much it was to call Joe Ebanks folded. Bryan Piciolli followed suit before Dos Santos re-shoved for 57,400 in total. Next to act was Koen De Visscher and asked for counts of both stacks but came to the conclusion he was not receiving the proper odds and his holecards hit the muck and when the remaining players folded the cards of the all-in players were revealed.

Aledmir: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Dos Santos: {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}

The {9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} flop kept Dos Santos' queens in front and the {2-Spades} turn changed nothing at all. The river was the {7-Hearts}, completing the hand and eliminating Aledmir.

Kilickeser Happy on TV

Table 5 have been moved to the TV table for level 15, but before they went a crazy hand went down that lasted long into the recent break, and saw a flabbergasted Bahadir Kilickeser double-up. We approached the table as 365,000 chips were being passed to him but the basics were filled in for us.

There was a button raise and three-bet from Paul Vas Nunes in the small blind before Kilickeser four-bet in big blind. Vas Nunes called and led for 60,000 on the {q-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop. Kilickeser called before both players checked the {2-Clubs} turn.

The river fell {8-Hearts} and Vas Nunes moved all-in. Kilickeser snap called with {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} for a full house. What did the Brit have? Just {3-Diamonds}{4-Spades} for the nut low!
