Haxton Hits Straight Flush; Jumps Into Chip Lead

Simone Petrini raised to 16,000 from under the gun and it folded around to Isaac Haxton on the button. Haxton pushed out a three-bet to 40,000 and it went back to Petrini who called.

The two saw a spade-friendly flop - {9-Spades}{7-Spades}{6-Spades}. Petrini wasted no time with a bet of 45,000 and Haxton called. The {8-Spades} rolled off on the turn, putting four connecting spades on the board.

Petrini slowed down with a check and Haxton moved 85,000 into the middle. Petrini sat thinking for about ninety seconds before announcing that he was all in.

"I call I have a straight flush!" Haxton said in one breath. He rolled over {J-Clubs}{10-Spades} for the nuts.

Petrini showed {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for top set on the flop and shook his head at his misfortune. The {J-Spades} completed the board and Haxton was able to scoop a pot that boosts him into the chip lead.

Longobardi & Liviu Takes Their Leave

Giuseppe Ottaviani opened for 24,000 under the gun only to have Alessandro Longobardi, who was next to act, move all in for around 80,000. Action folded back around to Ottaviani and he made the call.

Showdown
Longobardi: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Ottaviani: {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}

Longobardi got it in good, but the {8-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop paired Ottaviani's ace and gave him the lead. Neither the {2-Hearts} turn nor {K-Diamonds} river would deliver salvation for Longbardi, and he exited in the last level of the night.

Meanwhile, Ignat "0Human0" Liviu has been eliminated from the tournament.

Bou-Habib Doubles Through Shkoyan

Walid Bou-Habib shoved all in before the flop for 84,000 and was called by Tolik Shkoyan. Bou-Habib showed {A-Spades} {10-Hearts} and Shkoyan flipped {A-Clubs} {K-Diamonds}. Ace king looked good, but Bou-Habib hit a ten on the {2-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} flop and took the lead. The {4-Clubs} on the turn and the {J-Diamonds} on the river bricked and Bou-Habib doubled his stack.
