Jiang Tangles With Kitai

Level 23 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Davidi Kitai raised to 55,000 on the button and was called by Honglin Jiang in the big blind. On the flop of {K-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}, Jiang check-called a bet of 55,000 and then bet the {4-Hearts} turn for 90,000, Kitai called.

The {8-Clubs} fell on the river and Jiang made it 225,000 to go. Kitai called for almost half of his remaining stack and Jiang tapped the table with a "nice call" before turning over {Q-Hearts}{6-Clubs} for a busted straight and flush draw. Kitai had {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for two pair and jumped above one million.

Kitai then opened to 55,000 from the cutoff and Jiang in the small blind three-bet to 210,000 in order to force a fold.

Davor Lanini: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}
Ole Schemion: {J-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

Lanini needed one of the two remaining aces to survive but the river was the {9-Clubs} to seal his fate. He made his way to the rail in 14th place to collect €35,500.

Dumont Doubles Through Jiang

Level 23 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

David Peters raised to 60,000 and Nicolas Dumont called in the big blind. The duo checked the {Q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flop and the {5-Spades} turn. On the {10-Spades} river, Dumont checked and called a bet of Peters for 75,000, then mucked when he was shown {10-Clubs}{8-Spades} for two pair.

Two hands later, Dumont shoved on the button for 290,000 and Honglin Jiang in the small blind asked for a count, then also asked Stefan Huber in the big blind for the stack size before moving all in over the top to isolate successfully.

Nicolas Dumont: {A-Spades}{J-Spades}
Honglin Jiang: {A-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}

The board ran out {J-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{K-Spades}{6-Clubs} and Dumont doubled.

Level 23 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Davor Lanini bumped his stack above one million over on the feature table when he turned a straight with the {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and called Ole Schemion's bet of 140,000. Schemion with {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} then checked behind the {5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades}{J-Hearts} river and dropped some chips.

Soon after, Schemion opened the action with the {Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and Adrian Mateos in the small blind three-bet to 200,000 with {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}. Tomas Jozonis four-bet to 2,475,000 with the {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds} and forced a fold.

Gin for Jozonis

Tomas Jozonis
Tomas Jozonis

Javier Fernandez raised to 55,000 on the button with {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} and Tomas Jozonis defended his big blind with {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}. The {Q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop paired Fernandez up and Jozonis check-called a bet of 65,000.

Everything changed with the {6-Diamonds} on the turn, giving Jozonis a set and the checkmark. He opted to lead out for 165,000 and Fernandez called.

To make things even worse for Fernandez, the {Q-Diamonds} rolled off on the river to improve him to an inferior trip queens. Jozonis fired out a hefty bet of 550,000 and Fernandez paid it off after using one time bank.

Peters Regains Control of Outer Table

Level 23 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

In a limped pot to the {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop, David Peters bet 25,000 and Josip Simunic called before the duo checked the {10-Hearts} turn and {Q-Clubs} river. Peters briefly showed his cards, but couldn't beat the {A-Spades}{3-Diamonds} of Simunic.

Honglin Jiang opened to 60,000 and Peters called in the cutoff. On a flop of {J-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{5-Spades}, Jiang checked nad folded to a bet of 80,000. Jiang also defended his big blind next to a raise to 60,000 by Peters, but check-folded the {7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop.

Stefan Huber limped in from the small blind and Peters raised to 75,000. Huber called and checked the {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop, Peters bet 60,000 and that ended the hand right there. Peters open-shoved into short stack Simunic in the big blind next and claimed the big blind and ante.

In the last hand of the level, Huber called an under-the-gun raise to 60,000 by Peters and check-folded the {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades} flop to drop to 10 big blinds.
