A Flurry of All In and Calls

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Last level of the night and the short stacks don’t have time to wait around.

Sebastian Von Toperczer was back from the break and not looking particularly happy with his 70,000 stack. He’d had to fold his small blind and had a little less. When Mike Watson opened for 17,000 though he found a hand he liked and shoved. He got a call from Watson and turned over his {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades} but was up against the {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}. Von Toperczer would have to come from a long way behind and he did as the cards fell {10-Spades}{9-Spades}{2-Spades}{a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}. Watson’s set of aces beaten by the flush of Von Toperczer.

Seconds later at another table Walid Bou-Habib was all in with {k-Spades}{q-Spades} and got a call from Madis Müür holding {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}. No help for Habib though who bust out when the cards ran out {6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

To another table where at risk and all in Pawel Brzeski liked the look of his {a-Spades}{k-Spades} but he didn’t like it much when he say the {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} of Andrey Danilyuk. Brzeski even used his “One time.” but it was to no avail. {q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and that was it for the Polish PokerStars qualifier.

Dikovic Dejan checked the {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop over to Kevin Iacofano. Iacofano fired 22,000, and Dejan came back with a check-raise to 51,000. Iacofano called.

The turn was the {K-Diamonds}, and Dejan led for 62,000. Iacofano made the call, and the {3-Hearts} landed on the river. Both players checked.

Dejan showed the {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}, but Iacofano's {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} was the winner, and the pot was pushed his way,

Ace-King for Sormunen

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

From under the gun, Jamila Von Perger raised to 16,000. In the big blind, Pasi Sormunen made the call, and the flop came down {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. Sormunen checked, Von Perger bet 17,000, and Sormunen called.

The turn was the {9-Hearts}, and both players checked to see the {5-Diamonds} land on the river. Sormunen and Von Perger both checked again.

Sormunen showed the {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} for top pair, and Von Perger mucked her hand.

Komarov Eliminated

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Three players took a flop of {10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{q-Spades}, and a bunch of raising resulted in Anton Komarov being all in for 147,000, Michel Pecheux calling and Valentino Konakchiev folding (we arrived just before the turn was put out).

Pecheux: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}
Komarov: {q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

Komarov had flopped top pair, but it was still behind the pocket rockets of Pecheux. The {K-Spades} turn gave Komarov an open-ended straight draw, but the {3-Diamonds} river would be of no consequence. With that, Komarov hit the rail.

Conte Culls Colome

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Over at the secondary feature table, Marc Colome got his stack of 193,000 all in preflop holding the {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} and was up against the {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} of Francesco Conte. It was a classic flip, and Colome looked good through both the {10-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop and {5-Clubs} turn.

Just when it looked like a double was in store, the {Q-Spades} spiked on the river to give Conte a pair of queens. Conte clapped his hands together in celebration while a dejected Colome made his way to the payout desk.

Here's a look at the counts from the secondary feature table:
