Greenwood's Bluff Fails

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

In the very last hand before the break, Sam Greenwood and Paul Newey were involved in a battle of the blinds with more than 80,000 chips in the pot. The board was reading {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and Newey checked, Greenwood fired a bet worth 108,000 and was called to reveal {10-Spades}{4-Spades} for a bluff. Newey had the {J-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for trips jacks and scooped the big pot.

Luca Busts Dvoress

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Daniel Dvoress
Daniel Dvoress

From the cutoff it was Mustapha Kanit making it 4,500. On the button Daniel Dvoress three bet to 14,500 and big blind Ivan Luca cold four bet to 44,500. Kanit folded but Dvoress five bet to 94,500. Luca six bet to 144,500 and Dvoress shoved all in. For how much more that shove was, we don't know, as Luca instantly called and showed his {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}.

Dvoress had the {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} and the board blanked out: {6-Hearts}{5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{J-Hearts}. Exit for Dvoress who made his way to the cage buying back in. Luca is the runaway chip leader of the tournament after 4 levels of play.

Shak Doubles Through Quoss

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Dan Shak limped in from the small blind for 2,000 and Dario Sammartino squeezed to 6,500 before quickly folding to the shove of Shak. One hand later, it was Shak at it again and he raised to 5,000 from the button. Fabian Quoss in the big blind made it 15,000 to go and Shak shoved, picking up a call from the German:

Shak: {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}
Quoss: {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{9-Spades}{2-Spades} and Shak's stack of 64,300 found some company.

Old McDonald Had The Nines

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Shorty Mike McDonald got it on on a {9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{a-Hearts} board with {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} against Dario Sammartino's {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}.

The river bricked, and since a set beats two pair all day, McDonald doubled and Sammartino lost more than what he's made so far to fall below starting.

Chidwick Busts to Petrangelo

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

On the three-way turn {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}, Stephen Chidwick bet 30,000 and Patrik Antonius folded while Nick Petrangelo check-called. The dealer then burned and turned the {2-Clubs} river. Chidwick shoved and Petrangelo asked for a count before calling the 94,900 and seeing the Brit only turn over {Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}.

Petrangelo had the {Q-Spades}{J-Spades} for a straight and boosted his stack to more than half a million.

The Usual High Roller Suspects

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Mustapha Kanit and Thomas Muehloecker had both been seated for a few minutes already and then PokerStars Team Pro Daniel Negreanu showed up near the entrance of the Super High Roller tournament area to get his seat. "Where is my money? My chips? Who wants to play with me?"

Ultimately, Negreanu was drawn to table three and Tobias Reinkemeier showed up at almost the same time as well.

Raouf Harpooned

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Ibrahim Raouf
Ibrahim Raouf

Ibrahim Raouf just busted and didn't seem all too bothered by it.

Within a half hour of sitting down, he lost heaps to Vladimir Troyanovskiy, who made Broadway against him and got a check-raise paid off.

Moments later, another sizable chunk went to David Peters, who made a queen-high flush, and Raouf finally sent the last of it over to Charlie Carrel, who had top pair over his second pair.
