Hajiyev Wins Small Pot

Level 12 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Gary Hasson raised to 5,500 first to act and picked up two callers in Stephen Chidwick on the button and Ramin Hajiyev in the big blind. On the {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{3-Spades} flop, it was Hajiyev that led for 5,000 and that forced out Hasson, Chidwick called.

After the {5-Diamonds} turn, Hajiyev's second bet did the trick to claim the pot right there.

Zinno Doubles Through Kenney

Level 12 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Bryn Kenney had bet around 17,000 into a pot of close to 25,000 on the {10-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} flop, and opponent Anthony Zinno had check-raised all in for 123,000. Kenney called and tabled {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for second pair, but was behind to the {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} of Zinno for top pair.

The turn {j-Spades} gave both players straight draws, but the {j-Diamonds} ensured that Zinno doubled up, leaving Kenney with an average stack.

One Double; Two Bustouts

Level 12 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Vladimir Troyanovskiy
Vladimir Troyanovskiy

Down to his last 28,500, Piotr Nurzynski moved all in from the button and was called by Denys Shafikov in the small blind.

Piotr Nurzynski: {A-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Denys Shafikov: {A-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}

Shafikov paired his seven on the {7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop and Nurzynski already grabbed his belongings. The {7-Diamonds} turn and {A-Hearts} river improved Shafikov to a full house and Nurzynski joined the rail.

Moments later, [Removed:17] was all in for just 19,500 with the {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and big stack Niklas Astedt called out of the big blind with the {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}. The board came {10-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and Yan doubled will a full house.

Last but not least, Vladimir Troyanovskiy got his stack in preflop with ace-queen and Luc Greenwood looked him up with the {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}. The {K-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} flop was bad news for Troyanovskiy and a blank on the turn sealed his fate.

Boeree Chips Up; Muradov Short

Level 12 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
