Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
Kent Lundmark
Kent Lundmark

Kent Lundmark moved all in from the small blind for 316,000. Dominik Panka asked for a count then made the call.

Lundmark: {Q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}
Panka: {K-Spades}{7-Diamonds}

The flop came {10-Spades}{Q-Spades}{K-Clubs} and both players flopped a pair, the {A-Spades} turn offered some chop outs but also presented Panka with a Royal Flush draw. The river was the {2-Hearts} and Lundmark was knocked out in third place.

It'll be Panka against Albert Daher for the title.

Albert Daher opened for 60,000 and Dominik Pańka raised to 280,000. Daher made the call in position and they saw a flop of {6-Spades}{3-Hearts}{5-Clubs}. Pańka bet 240,000 and Daher raised him to 550,000. Pańka sat as still as a rock for several minutes before he announced he was all in. Daher threw his cards away.

The way these two aggressive players are going at it there could be a big confrontation soon.

The preflop betting got to 190,000 with Dominik Pańka the aggressor out of position. Albert called and they saw a flop of {9-Clubs}{q-Spades}{k-Hearts}. Both players checked. The turn card was {5-Clubs} and Pańka, as is his style, took his time and bet 160,000. Daher called and the river was the {6-Diamonds}. Pańka bet 380,000 and Daher rested his head in one hand, thought about in a short while and folded. He said across the table to Pańka that he’d laid down a big hand.
