Zawadzki Survives; Gordillo and Guilbert Bust

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Mikolaj Zawadzki pushed all in from the button. It was 146,000, and Martin Kabrhel came over the top all in to offer Johan Guilbert a chance to risk his stack of 250,000 or so. Guilbert decided to call.

Guilbert: {a-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Kabrhel: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Zawadzki: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Guilbert saw a beautiful {9-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} hit the felt, and he seemed poised to nearly triple up. On the {k-Spades} turn, he stayed best with two pair, but the {j-Spades} river busted him and allowed Zawadzki to survive with the chop.

At another table, Pablo Gordillo went bust.

Ramos Gets a Sweat

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Felipe Ramos
Felipe Ramos

Dick Postel raised to 33,000 in middle position, and Felipe Ramos shoved all in from the small blind. Postel thought awhile and seemed pained but decided to call for his 305,000.

Postel: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
Ramos: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}

It was a brutal spot for Postel but he found a shot on the {2-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{3-Spades} flop.

"Please," he pleaded with the dealer.

It wasn't to be, as an {8-Diamonds} turn was followed by a {9-Hearts} river.

Maxim Lykov Eliminated With Snowmen

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Maxim Lykov
Maxim Lykov

Maxim Lykov's hopes for a second EPT Main Event title were recently dashed. Back in 2009, the Russian poker player won the EPT 6 Kiev Main Event during the tour's only stop to Ukraine for €330,000.

Konstantin Uspenskiy opened the action from early position before deep stacked Apostolos Bechrakis three-bet and Maxim Lykov declared himself to be all in. Uspenskiy got out of the way and Bechrakis quickly called.

Lykov: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}
Bechrakis: {A-Hearts}{10-Spades}

Lykov was ahead on the {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop, however, Bechrakis picked up more outs with a queen appearing on the turn or river able to complete a straight. The {7-Hearts} on the turn was another safe card for Lykov, however, he was eliminated from the tournament after the {q-Hearts} completed the board on the river giving Bechrakis a straight.

Bechrakis was hovering around 2 million chips after the last break, however, lost a hand before this one and just rebounded in this hand back up to 1,750,000.

Charette on the Ropes

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Gang Wang got his last 308,000 in and was at risk against Simon Charette, holding {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} against Charette's {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}. Wang flopped two pair as {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{k-Clubs} hit the felt, and Charette was in need of a whole lot of help. Bricks on the turn and river reduced him to a few big blinds and he's now in desperation mode.

Zawadzi Eliminates Tedeschi

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Mikolaj Zawadzki pushed all in under the gun for 217,000, and Paul Tedeschi tanked awhile with his last 46,000 before someone called a clock. Tedeschi called with 10 seconds left. Everyone else folded.

Tedeschi: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
Zawadzki: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

Tedeschi got a sweat when the first four came {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Spades}, but a {4-Diamonds} neither gave him a boat nor a straight.

Bonavena Wins a Race

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Salvatore Bonavena got his last 158,000 in with {a-Spades}{k-Hearts} and needed improvement against the {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} of big blind Kyosti Isberg. The flop was a big one for Bonavena: {q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}. The straight found a small amount of danger when a {q-Clubs} turned, but a {6-Diamonds} was a blank and Bonavena celebrated.

Gierse Takes Out Soulier and Manole

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Fabrice Soulier
Fabrice Soulier

Mihai Manole jammed all-in for his short-stack of 264,000 and Marius Gierse flat called. Fabrice Soulier went in over the top and also declared himself to be all-in for 550,000 before Gierse called him as well.

Manole: {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}
Soulier: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Gierse: {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

Gierse had the lead before the flop and never looked back as the board ran out {Q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} to eliminate both Manole and Soulier in the same hand. Meanwhile, Gierse's stack soared to 2,100,000.

Charette Finished

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Simon Charette didn't have even two big blinds left, and he got them in with {a-Clubs}{5-Clubs}. An opponent picked up {a-}{k-} and busted him after Charette couldn't chop or win on a {j-}{j-}{8-} flop.
