GTL

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Arian Ghofrani Far just doubled up Sebastian Pauli which left him with just 56,000 chips. The board showed {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{7-Spades} when Pauli checked to Far who bet 40,000. Pauli moved all in for 118,000 and Far called after tanking for quite some time.

Arian Ghofrani Far: {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}
Sebastian Pauli: {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

The board ran out {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and Pauli secured a big double up. He's now back up around the average stack while Far needs a double up quickly to stay alive in this event.

Terry Takes His Leave

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

We found Todd Terry all in before the flop for what looked like around 90,000. Terry held {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs} but was in need of some help against Sascha Goldbaum's {J-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}.

The flop came down {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and gave Terry some chop outs with an eight. The turn was the {5-Hearts} and the river the {2-Diamonds}, though, and Terry was eliminated in 102nd place.

Who the Man? Aku Again!

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Aku Joentausta has extended his lead at the top and is approaching the magic million chip mark. His latest pot came after he eliminated Recep Dursen.

Both players flopped top pair before the rest of the chips went in when the board read {7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}.

Dursen opened {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and lost out to Joentausta's {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} after the river came {10-Hearts}. The pot was worth around half a million.
