Marsh Loses a Big Pot

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Around 135,000 were in the middle as the flop showed {9-Spades}{7-Hearts}{3-Spades} and Alessio Di Cesare ended up all-in and at risk for 324,000 against big stack Luke Marsh.

Alessio Di Cesare: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Luke Marsh: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

Di Cesare had the best of it heading into the showdown and held up on the {6-Diamonds} turn and {6-Hearts} river to put a dent into the big stack of Marsh.

Hlavacek Doubles Through Kenney

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

After a raise and a call, Bryn Kenney three-bet to 41,000 in the small blind. Petr Hlavacek four-bet shoved his last 105,000 from the big blind, the two other players folded, and Kenney quickly called.

Petr Hlavacek: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Bryn Kenney: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

The {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{5-Spades} board remained low for Hlavacek, who collected some much-needed chips.

Shortly after, at another table, Vitaly Karayvan lost his final chips to Stefan Egermann to leave the field with 115.

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Vojtech Ruzicka
Vojtech Ruzicka

Giuseppe Zarbo opened the action with a raise to 12,000 and he was called by Sorin Flutur from one seat over. Vojtech Ruzicka moved all in for 63,000 and was called both ways. On the {k-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop both remaining active players checked to see the {4-Hearts} turn on which Zarbo check-folded to a bet.

Vojtech Ruzicka: {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Sorin Flutur: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}

Ruzicka had two overcards and the flush draw but the {j-Hearts} river was not what he was looking for.

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Xiaqing Ji
Xiaqing Ji

Earlier on the stream, both Orpen Kisacikoglu {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and Xiaqing Ji {j-Spades}{9-Spades} saw a flop of {a-Spades}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs}. Kisacikoglu checked and Ji bet 15,000. The Turk check-raised to 45,000 and Ji then re-raised to 125,000.

Kisacikoglu tanked before shoving for 427,000 and Ji eventually folded.

A short while later, Ionut Voinea opened {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} to 11,000 and Kisacikoglu {5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} called on the button. Ji was in the big blind with {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds} and opted to three-bet to 45,000.

Voinea four-bet all in for 132,000 and Ji called.

The {q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} flop improved Voinea to a set and there were no worries on the {6-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} runout as Voinea doubled up.

Shehadeh on Half a Million; Tso Gone

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

The cards of Wei Tso were already in the muck and the table confirmed that he had turned a flush with {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs} on a board of {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. However, Luigi Shehadeh had the best of it with {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} for aces full and boosted his stack to more than half a million.

Zeiter Can't Hold With Aces

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Diego Zeiter was spotted all-in and at risk with the {a-Spades}{a-Hearts} and Alessio Di Cesare had him covered, but tabled the inferior pocket pair in {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}.

The board came {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and the six on the flop propelled Di Cesare in the lead, which he kept until the end.

End of the Road for Azor

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

A short-stacked Ran Azor was preflop called by both Roman Herold and Vasileios Tsaknis. The active pair checked it down postflop during the {8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{7-Spades} rundown.

All three players tabled high cards on showdown: {a-Spades}{9-Spades} for Herold, {k-Spades}{q-Clubs} for Azor and {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}, the winner, for Tsaknis who celebrated the win with a loud "Yes!".

Last PokerStars Ambassador Kalidou Sow Eliminated by Koleno

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Kalidou Sow
Kalidou Sow

Kalidou Sow got his short stack of around 60,000 in from the button and Stanislav Koleno made the call in the big blind.

Sow's {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs} faced the {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades} of Koleno and he picked up some equity on the {7-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop. However, the {5-Hearts} turn and {4-Spades} river brought no help to the PokerStars ambassador and he was eliminated in the first level of the day.
