Suarez Straightens Out Krueger

Level 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Anton Suarez
Anton Suarez

Klas Krueger moved all in from middle position for 1,300,000. He found a call from Anton Suarez in the cutoff, the rest of the table got out of the way.

Klas Krueger: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Anton Suarez: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Krueger wasn't happy to see the {a-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{10-Clubs} hit the flop holding the ace magnets. The turn was just what he needed in the {k-Clubs}, though, giving him the set to take back the lead.

"Jack," called Suarez, just as the dealer dropped the {j-Diamonds} on the felt, much to the roars of the table.

Suarez made the straight to send the cowboys into the much and Krueger out the door.

Sammy Truong: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Alejandro Lococo: {a-Spades}{4-Spades}

Lococo had the dominating ace, and both players paired their kicker on the runout, so Lococo's hand held up while Truong exited the tournament.

Truong Doubles With Dominated Hand

Level 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Sammy Truong moved all in from early position with about 660,000 in his stack. Krzysztof Michalik moved all in himself for slightly less. The rest of the table folded, so the two were off to a runoff.

Krzysztof Michalik: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Sammy Truong: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Dominated and looking for help, Truong saw the {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{2-Hearts} hit the flop, giving Michalik top pair, but Truong picked up a gutshot. The turn {9-Hearts} changed nothing, but the river {j-Clubs} brought the gutshot home to send Krzysztof Michalik out the door.

Tomovic Doubles Through Lococo

Level 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Alejandro Lococo opened to 160,000 from the cutoff and Aleksandar Tomovic, who had just chopped a pot after getting it in with {k-Spades}{j-Spades} against the {k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} of Robert Heidorn, three-bet jammed with just 175,000. Lococo called.

Aleksandar Tomovic: {q-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}
Alejandro Lococo: {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

Tomovic wasn't behind for long as the flop landed {q-Spades}{j-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} to give him a massive lead with trips and he held for a double as the board finished out {8-Hearts}{5-Hearts}.

Lococo, the event's defending champion, could afford the hit as he currently sits with one of the biggest stacks.
