Grochulski Eliminated; Katz and Shafikov Double

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

An open seat was announced over on table one and Grzegorz Grochulski left the tournament area. According to Gary Hasson, Grochulski had defended out of the blinds and flopped two pair only for Hasson to look up his check-shove on the turn with an unbeatable set of jacks.

A similar big pot was played on table four on which Denys Shafikov scored a big double through Niklas Astedt. Shafikov flopped two pair on {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} out the big blind with {2-Hearts}{6-Hearts} against the overpair of Astedt, who held {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}. The {K-Diamonds} turn and the {2-Spades} river changed nothing anymore and Shafikov doubled with a full house.

Last but not least, Cary Katz was all in with the {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts} and table neighbor Bahram Chobineh looked him up with {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. There was an ace on the flop, but a queen followed on the turn.
