Steen's Chips Gobbled Up by Geilich

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Yngve Steen
Yngve Steen

Action folded to Ludovic Geilich on the button and he opened for 24,000. Yngve Steen was in the small blind and opted to commit his last 206,000, which prompted the big blind to fold. Geilich clearly didn't have a hand he was fond of and tanked for nearly three minutes before making the call.

Steen: {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Geilich: {k-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

Steen got it in good, but Geilich was drawing to two live cards. That made it a 60/40 situation, and Steen's position only got stronger as the {q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop failed to help Geilich. The dealer then burned and turned the {K-Spades}, which was a dagger through Steen's heart. Geilich paired his king and left Steen in need of either an ace or ten on the river to stay alive.

The dealer burned one last time and put out the {3-Spades}, the last card Steen would see in the EPT10 London Main Event before exiting in 23rd place.

Stray Katz

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

On a flop of {10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} Nicky Katz checked to Andy Moseley who bet 22,000. Tudor Purice called but then Katz check-raised to 60,000 from the big blind.

Moseley folded but Purice called to see the {8-Spades} turn. Katz now bet 76,000 but Purice called once more to see the {A-Hearts} on the river.

This time Katz bet 108,000 and Purice called. Katz showed {10-Spades}{2-Hearts} but found himself outkicked when Purice flipped {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for a better kicker.

Lucky Sevens for Yan Send Warburton Home in 22nd

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

A short-stacked Steven Warburton shoved all in from the cutoff for 213,000 and [Removed:17] looked him up from the small blind.

Warburton: {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Yan: {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}

It was a flip, but not after the flop came down {10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}. Yan flopped a set and left Warburton drawing to running cards. The {A-Diamonds} turn paired Warburton, but it actually left him drawing dead. The inconsequential {K-Spades} was run out on the river for good measure and Yan was pushed the pot.

Warburton, who bubbled this very event last year, finished in 22nd place.

Lucky Ace on the River Saves Villa-Lobos

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Action folded to Nicolau Villa-Lobos on the button and he shoved for 160,000. The small blind folded and Georgios Karakousis made a quick call from the big.

Villa-Lobos: {a-Spades}{3-Hearts}
Karakousis: {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The {A-Hearts} in the window looked good for Villa-Lobos, but the {K-Hearts} and {K-Clubs} that followed it on the flop did not. Karakousis flopped trips and left Villa-Lobos in need of an ace. The {4-Clubs} turn was not it, but as you can tell from the title of this post, the river was; in fact, it was the {A-Clubs}!

Tudor Check-Raise Fails

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Robin Ylitalo
Robin Ylitalo

Heads-up on a {K-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Clubs} board and Tudor Purice fired out a bet of 57,000. Robin Ylitalo made the call to see the {A-Hearts} on the turn.

Purice now checked and the Swede fired out a bet of 102,000 before Purice check-raised to 256,000. Ylitalo carefully considered his options and then made the call.

Both players then checked the {3-Diamonds} on the river. Ylitalo turned over {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, a flush draw that had made top pair and that was enough to win the pot.

Yan Discovers the Joy of Six

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Steve Watts
Steve Watts

[Removed:17] opened preflop on the button to 24,000 and Steven Watts moved all in from the big blind. Yan thought for a minute then made the call.

Yan: {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}
Watts: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}

The flop was {3-Spades}{10-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} and Watts picked up a gutshot, the {4-Hearts} turn changed nothing and the {Q-Hearts} river meant that Watts was eliminated.

Katz Runs Out of Lives

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

We're not sure of the preflop action, but we do know that Nicky Katz, who had been grinding a short stack all day, got his last 160,000 all in preflop holding the {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} and was up against the {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts} of Candido Goncalves. It was a flip, but in this instance Katz would come up empty handed as the board ran out a dry {j-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{8-Spades}.

Katz smiled, shook hands with Goncalves, and then made his way to the payout desk in 20th place.

Moseley Flushed by Kozlov

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Andy Moseley
Andy Moseley

A big hand just took place at the outer table. By the time we arrived action had completed and Andy Moseley was exiting the tournament floor.

From what we could piece together he called off his last 270,000 or so on the river with a board reading {k-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{10-Clubs}. Moseley, a well-known cash game player in London and Macau, had the {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts} out in front of him. Unfortunately for him, Martin Kozlov held the {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts} for a bigger flush.

Mosely, who you can read more about by clicking here, was eliminated in 19th place.
