Up And Down for Gulseven

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Erdal Gulseven won a pot off Gab Yong Kim soon after returning from the break but lost the profit soon after when he was involved in a hand with Vlastimil Pustina. The latter had raised the hijack and Gulseven called on the button, they were the only ones left after a {9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop on which Pustina check-called a bet of 55,000 by Gulseven.

Both opted to check the {q-Hearts} turn and Pustina bet the {6-Spades} river for 145,000. Gulseven reluctantly called and mucked after he was shown the {q-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for a pair of queens.

Lee Doubles Up; Sootla Eliminated Shortly Thereafter

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Ranno Sootla
Ranno Sootla

Luigi Shehadeh opened to 45,000 and Ranno Sootla three-bet all in for around 300,000. Wing Sang Lee called and Shehadeh folded.

Sootla held {6-}{6-} against the {j-}{j-} of Lee and failed to overcome his opponent's bigger pocket pair, and he was left with just three big blinds.

He got them in on the very next hand with {j-}{9-} against the {q-}{q-} of Livshitz. The board came {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{8-Spades} board and he was eliminated in 29th place.

Michot and Kisacikoglu Get Short

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Laurent Michot was involved in a hand with Erdal Gulseven in which he bet the {q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{9-Spades}{3-Clubs} turn for 225,000 only for Gulseven to move all in over the top. Michot shook his head and elected to fold.

Orpen Kisacikoglu was moved tables to balance the field and defended his big blind against a button raise to 50,000 by Luigi Shehadeh. Kisacikoglu let his shot clock run down to one second to check the {a-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop, Shehadeh bet 30,000 and that won the pot right there.

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Hossein Ensan
Hossein Ensan

Luke Marsh found {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} in the early position and raised to 45,000. Action folded to Hossein Ensan in the big blind who had {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds} who defended.

The flop came {9-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for Marsh to pick up the flush and straight draw. Ensan checked and Marsh continued with a bet of 45,000. Ensan went along.

The turn was the {j-Hearts} for Ensan to hit a pair of jacks but Marsh hit a straight. Ensan checked again and Marsh fired a 85,000 bet into the pot. Ensan counted out his stack and then decided to raise to 185,000 after using a time bank card. Marsh looked at the bet and called.

The river completed the board with the {8-Spades}, Ensan shoved for 335,000 and Marsh snap-called with the better hand to eliminate the World Champion in 28th place.
