Sikora Doubles Through Newey

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Keith Johnson wasn't called on his first shove, but now he was looked up by. The cards of the opponent were already in the muck, as the Brit had made a set of sixes with {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} on a board of {J-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{A-Spades}.

Jaroslaw Sikora shoved his short stack of 11,500 from the cutoff and Paul Newey reshoved from the small blind.

Sikora: {K-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Newey: {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

The {K-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop improved Sikora and he stayed ahead thanks to the {8-Spades} turn and {9-Spades} river.

Negreanu Likes Sixty-Nine

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

Daniel Negreanu, who busted earlier but bought back in, was first to act and made it 2,700 under the gun. Action folded to Ihar Soika, who won the €10,000 High Roller in EPT Barcelona back in 2014, and he tossed in 7,000 while verbalizing the three-bet was to 6,900.

"Sixty nine huh?" said Negreanu with a big smile, "Haha, I get it. That's a sex number!"

"I like Sixty-Nine haha!"

Negreanu eyed Soika's stack and said "You have a lot of money? Ah, you don't have a lot. But I still try to get it!"

Negreanu called and the flop came {5-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}. Negreanu check called a bet of 6,200 before they both checked the {3-Clubs} on the turn. The {4-Clubs} completed the board and Negreanu's bet of 11,500 forced Soika to fold.

Fedor No More

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Fedor Holz raised to 3,000 and Sergey Lebedev, who had just reentered not long ago, then squeezed to 8,000 from one seat over. Holz shoved for just over starting stack and Lebedev quickly called.

Holz: {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}
Lebedev: {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {Q-Spades}{10-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs} and Holz exited the tournament area. He won't be coming back today or tomorrow either, as this was his second bullet.

Boeree and Dayan Split

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

From under the gun, there was a raise to 3,500 by David Dayan and Liv Boeree on the button as well as Julian Stuer in the small blind called. On the {Q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop, Stuer checked and subsequently folded while Dayan bet 4,500 and Boeree called.

Dayan fired a second bet worth 7,500 on the {6-Hearts} turn and was called before making it 9,500 on the {A-Clubs} river. Boeree raised to what looked like 30,000, but it didn't matter much as Dayan snap-called and both tabled ace-queen. Boeree had the {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}, Dayan the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}.

Kenney Doubles Through Mantel

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Bryn Kenney opened to 2,700 and was called by Ariel Mantel in the big blind. On the {8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop, Mantel check-raised from 3,300 to 9,000 and Kenney called to see the {J-Clubs} appear on the turn. Mantel now fired a bet worth 11,500 and Kenney called before his opponent shoved the {10-Hearts} river.

Kenney had exactly 50,000 chips behind and was covered by 5,000 chips. After some consideration, he called with {10-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for the straight and Mantel tapped the table with his {5-Hearts}{4-Spades}. "Nice call," he said and was left with a mere dust.
