Flynn Flips to Double

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Jamie Flynn
Jamie Flynn

Jamie Flynn was all-in from the small blind for his 252,000 chips and was at risk against Paul Fontan Castrillon in the cutoff.

Jamie Flynn: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Paul Fontan Castrillon: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}

It was a flip, and the {9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} flop kept the tens ahead. The {6-Clubs} turn left Castrillon needing an ace or queen, but the {9-Diamonds} completed the board to secure the double for Flynn.

Martin Jacobson
Martin Jacobson

Benjamin Pollak opened to 25,000 from under the gun and found two callers in Martin Jacobson on the button and Nicolas Vayssieres in the small blind.

Pollak and Vayssieres checked the {10-Clubs}{9-Spades}{7-Spades} flop, with Jacobson firing 33,000. Vayssieres called while Pollak folded, leaving the hand heads up to the {6-Diamonds} turn. Both players then checked to the {8-Diamonds} river, where Vayssieres led out for 101,000.

Jacobson took a moment before announcing a raise to 350,000, representing more than half of his remaining stack. Vayssieres then raised the rest, putting the decision back on Jacobson with a straight on the board.

After using all three of his remaining time banks, Jacobson tossed in the call and turned over {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for a jack-high straight. Vayssieres quickly revealed {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} for a queen-high straight, and Jacobson wished everyone good luck on his way to the payout desk.

Wayne Heung

On the feature table Danut Chisu opened from under the gun to 25,000 and was met by a reraise to 180.000 by Wayne Heung. Action folded to Aleem Kanji, on the button, holding who reraised all in for 522,000.

Heung had only left himself 8,000 behind so made the call and was at risk.

Wayne Heung: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Aleem Kanji: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}

The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and we lost Heung in 29th place.

Cooler Freezes Liperis

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Yiannis Liperis
Yiannis Liperis

In a three-way pot on a flop of {10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{a-Hearts}, Yiannis Liperis checked and Julien Sitbon also checked, while Daewoong Song song bet 35,000.

Liperis check-raised all in for around 200,000 and Sitbon asked the dealer for a count but folded before he could provide one. Song called without needing a count.

Yiannis Liperis: {a-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Daewoong Song: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}

Liperis was on the wrong end of the cooler with two pair against the set of Song. He needed to hit an ace to stay alive and couldn't do so as the board finished out {7-Clubs}{9-Spades}.

Sitbon told the table he folded pocket jacks.

Song Spikes to Triple

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Daewoong Song
Daewoong Song

Yiannis Liperis opened to 24,000 from under the gun, Daewoong Song three-bet in the cutoff, and Thomas Hueber called on the button. Liperis got his 230,000 chips in, Song got his 127,000 chips in, and Hueber called.

Daewoong Song: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Yiannis Liperis: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Thomas Hueber: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

It was a huge cooler with Liperis likely to be on the right side of it, but the {k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop vaulted Song into the lead. The {2-Hearts} and {2-Spades} completed the board to secure the fortunate triple for the South Korean player, while Liperis took the side pot and only lost a small amount.
