Stephen Chidwick: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

The pocket pair remained ahead throughout the {j-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} board and just like that, Muehloecker was sent to the rail.

Bujtas Pains Grafton

Level 8 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Sam Grafton made it 10,000 to go and was called by Laszlo Bujtas, who came along out of the big blind. The {k-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop was checked through by both players and Bujtas then bet the {8-Diamonds} turn for 18,000, which Grafton called.

The board completed with the {10-Diamonds} river and Bujtas bet 55,000 to send Grafton into the tank. More than half a minute passed as Grafton used a time bank extension and he then opted to fold.

Bujtas Eliminated; Re-Enters Immediately

Level 8 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Laszlo Bujtas was all in for 280,000 on a {5-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flop against Daniel Dvoress.

Laszlo Bujtas: {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Daniel Dvoress: {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Bujtas had flopped two pair against the pair and a flush draw of Dvoress. The turn {10-Hearts} improved Dvoress to a flush, and the river was the {j-Spades} to add insult to injury and send Bujtas to the re-entry desk.

Karhel Clicks Buttons

Level 8 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Martin Kabrhel
Martin Kabrhel

The action reached Yuri Dzivielevski on the button and he made it 11,000 to go. Martin Kabrhel then three-bet to large 52,000 in the small blind soon after sitting down for his third bullet.

Dzivielevski wasted little time before moving all-in and Kabrhel motioned with his hand to ask for a count. Before the dealer could reach for the chips, Dzivielevski did the deed to cut out 262,000. That proved to be too much for Kabrhel, who folded without any small talk.

Timbus Doubles Through Kanit

Level 8 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Cosmin Timbus
Cosmin Timbus

Following an open raise by Mustapha Kanit, both Cosmin Timbus in the small blind and Saar Wilf in the big blind called. The {k-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds} flop was checked to Kanit, who bet 11,000 and received a call from Timbus and Wilf. The shove by the Romanian followed on the {10-Diamonds} turn for 109,000 total and Wilf folded while Kanit asked for a count and called.

Cosmin Timbus: {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}
Mustapha Kanit: {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}

The {q-Clubs} river was too little too late for Kanit as Timbus had the check mark with his set of fives already.

Royal Flush for Vogelsang

Level 8 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Timothy Adams opened to 11,000 and called a three-bet from Tom Vogelsang in the blinds.

The flop was {j-Spades}{k-Hearts}{q-Spades} and Vogelsang checked. Adams bet 30,000 and Vogelsang called.

The turn was the {10-Spades} and both players checked.

The river was the {4-Spades} and both players checked.

Vogelsang turned over his cards revealing first the {a-Spades} then moving it to one side to reveal the {k-Spades} as well for a Royal Flush.

Adams checked and re-checked his cards as the table burst into laughter.

Grafton Felted by Adams

Level 8 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Sam Grafton
Sam Grafton

In a battle of the blinds, Timothy Adams and Sam Grafton had both already invested 60,000 chips each leading up to the {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} flop. Adams eyeballed the stack of his table neighbour and then moved all-in. Grafton sigh-called within a few seconds for what appeared to be around 205,000 in chips.

Sam Grafton: {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Timothy Adams: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Both players had a straight draw and Adams was in the lead. The {k-Diamonds} turn improved Adams to broadway and the {9-Spades} river was not enough to keep Grafton in contention, who instantly left the tournament area with a very loud sigh.
