Soika Busts to Jensen

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Ihar Soika open-shoved for his last 13,100 chips from the hijack and Frederik Jensen called from one seat over, all the other players behind them folded. Soika showed {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and Jensen had the {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, immediately finding help on the {A-Spades}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop. The one remaining eight in the deck didn't come, instead the {J-Hearts} turn and {10-Clubs} river filled up the board.

Muehloecker Raises the Flop

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

On a flop of {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} we saw both blinds check to Alen Bilic who sat under the gun and bet 3,200. Thomas Muehloecker on the button raised to 8,000 and bot blinds folded. Bilic made the call and both players checked the {2-Spades} on the turn. The {10-Hearts} completed the board and Bilic fired 7,700. Muehloecker called after giving it some thoughts, and his {Q-Spades}{9-Spades} turned out to be good against Bilic's {A-Spades}{K-Spades}.

De Meulder Ships the River

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Just before the level went up, Team PokerStars Pro Matthias De Meulder raised from the hijack, how much we're not sure, and Andrey Kotelnikov called from the big blind to see a flop of {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Clubs}. Kotelnikov check-called a bet of 2,500 and then opted to lead out for 3,000 on the {9-Hearts} turn.

De Meulder made the call and then moved all in for his last 10,400 after Kotelnikov had checked the {3-Spades} river. It did the trick as Kotelnikov gave up on the hand.

Jorgensen Eliminated

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We ran into Theo Jørgensen in the hall ways and asked him (very politely) what had happened. He told us action folded to him in the small blind and he limped in with {K-}{K-}. The big blind bumped it up to 2,800 and Jørgensen three bet to 7,000. The big blind clicked it back to 11,000 and Jørgensen moved in for around 30,000. The big blind called and had aces, crushing Jørgensen. Five community cards later Jørgensen left the tournament room.

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

After the under-the-gun player opened for 2,000, Preben Stokkan moved all in for roughly 17,000. Filippo Lazzaretto called off for 8,000 from the small blind, and the original raiser got out of the way.

Stokkan: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Lazzaretto: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}

The board ran out {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and Lazzaretto more than doubled.

Knoppers is Toppers

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Luigi Knoppers moved all in under the gun for his last 9,100 and actin folded to Carole Segoura, who moved all in over the top from the hijack. The rest of the players folded and it was off to the races.

Segoura: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Knoppers: {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}

Knoppers was looking for his lowly deuces to hold, and that's just what they did after the board ran out a clean {4-Hearts}{5-Spades}{j-Hearts}{9-Spades}{6-Clubs}.
