Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Dragoljub Martinovic
Dragoljub Martinovic

Nicolas Cottin raised under the gun to 250,000 and was met by a three-bet jam from Dragoljub Martinovic in the small blind for a bit over two million. Cottin happily called and turned over the goods.

Dragoljub Martinovic: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Nicolas Cottin: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

The board came {q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{2-Spades}{q-Spades} and Cottin's aces held over Martinovic's nines. The players stacks were counted down and Cottin barely had Martinovic covered to earn a virtual double up and eliminate Martinovic.

Jakub Koleckar raised to 240,000 in middle position, Alejandro Lococo called in the small blind, and Petr Kubenka moved all-in from the big blind for about 1.85 million.

Koleckar folded and Lococo called to put Kubenka at risk.

Petr Kubenka: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Alejandro Lococo: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}

The {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Spades} flop gave Lococo a set of nines, and the {q-Diamonds} turn and {5-Clubs} river sealed Kubenka's fate, giving a big pot to the PokerStars Ambassador.

The board ran out {6-Hearts}{9-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{k-Clubs} and the jacks held to knock Palma out of the tournament. Konopka dragged the pot to get moving back in the right direction after his previous setback.
