Farid Jattin Falls

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

The player under the gun opened for 9,000 and two positions down it was Farid Jattin who shoved his 84,000 in. Fabiano Kovalski in the big blind seemed interested, and asked for a count. He then called, and the initial raiser folded.

Fabiano Kovalski: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}
Farid Jattin: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

It was an unfair match up and Jattin had literally already left the tournament area by the time the turn was on the table: {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{10-Spades}. Down to 97, two from the money.

Schemion Running Over Marigliano

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Not long ago we saw Ole Schemion square off against Italy's Marcello Marigliano. The former ended up six-bet shoving, which inspired Marigliano to fold. The two recently butted heads again.

With around 120,000 in the pot and a flop of {6-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, Schemion bet 44,000 and Marigliano raised to 88,000 from the button. Schemion responded with a three-bet to 144,000, and Marigliano tanked for a long time before folding yet again.

Also, here's a look at the chip counts from the entire table:

Aouine the Penultimate Bubble Boy

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

France's Akim Aouine shoved all in for his last 23,000 and Sebastian Bredthauer called from the button.

Aouine: {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Bredthauer: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}

It was a bad spot for Aouine, and he needed some major help. The {7-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop gave him a gutshot straight draw, but neither the {9-Diamonds} turn nor {Q-Hearts} river would fill it. Aouine was eliminated in in 97th place which means we're now on the money bubble and hand-for-hand play has been initiated.

All In and a Call

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Team PokerStars Pro David Williams raised under the gun only to have Emil Patel three-bet all in for 43,500 from the button. The blinds folded, and Williams, who has a €2,000 side bet with Noah Boeken that the bubble will burst in this level, made the call.

Patel: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}
Williams: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

The {q-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop made things interesting by pairing Williams' queen, but he was left wanting as the {7-Clubs} blanked on the turn followed by the {5-Hearts} on the river.
