Akkari Can't Trap Chidwick

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Stephen Chidwick
Stephen Chidwick

Stephen Chidwick opened to 50,000 from the hijack and Andre Akkari defended from the big blind.

Akkari checked on the flop of {7-Clubs}{a-Spades}{6-Clubs} and Chidwick bet a big 75,000. Akkari called. Akkari checked again on the {10-Spades} turn and Chidwick checked back.

Akkari checked a third time on the {5-Clubs} river and Chidwick quickly checked back. Akkari was probably hoping his opponent would fire a bet as he turned over {9-Clubs}{4-Clubs} to win the pot.

Papadopoulos Piling It On

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

With approximately 400,000 in the pot on a completed board of {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{a-Spades}{2-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, Kyriakos Papadopoulos bet 120,000 from the big blind.

Matias Meran called on the button and Andrew Wilson folded in the small blind.

Papadopoulos showed {5-Spades}{3-Spades} for a flush draw on the flop that turned into a rivered wheel for the win.

Chidwick Wounded After Doubling [Removed:555]

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

[Removed:554] opened in middle position before Arthur Conan three-bet jammed a stack of about 150,000 from the button. Stephen Chidwick thren three-bet jammed out of the big blind and [Removed:555] called off with 560,000

Arthur Conan: {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
[Removed:554]: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Stephen Chidwick: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

[Removed:555]'s queens stayed ahead as the board ran out {5-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{2-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for the Dutchman to more than double, send Conan to the rail and take a chunk out of Chidwick's recently acquired stack.

At the next table over, Saar Wilf was eliminated after running queens into the kings of Daewoong Song in what seems to be a recurring trend today.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Ehsan Amiri
Ehsan Amiri

Ehsan Amiri raised to 50,000 under the gun and was three-bet to 170,000 by Pauli Ayras in the small blind.

Amiri called and the flop came {2-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs}.

Ayras bet 100,000 and Amiri called, then on the {9-Hearts} turn Ayras moved all in for his last 385,000.

Amiri used a pair of time banks before making the call to put Ayras at risk.

Pauli Ayras: {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Ehsan Amiri: {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}

Amiri's sevens were ahead, and remained so with the {6-Hearts} on the river to send Ayras to the rail, while becoming the first player over two million.

Full Circle as Martirosian Runs Queens Into Kings

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Artur Martirosian
Artur Martirosian

Philippe Narboni opened from the cutoff and Artur Martirosian three-bet jammed a stack of 350,000 from the small blind. Narboni snap-called with 300,000 when the action got around.

Philippe Narboni: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Artur Martirosian: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

It was full circle as earlier in the night Martirosian had kings to bust Leonard Maue with queens on the money bubble. The flop of {k-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Hearts} gave Narboni a set to have the Russian drawing nearly dead before the runout of {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} that improved Narboni to a full house.

Martirosian thought he might be covered but ended up sitting back down when he realized he had two big blinds left.

Here Comes Chidwick!

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Stephen Chidwick

Stephen Chidwick has bided his time in the middle of the pack most of the day, but in the last couple of levels he's built up his stack and is now using it to his advantage.

After Yannick Cardot opened under the gun to 40,000, Chidwick three-bet to 125,000 from the cutoff.

Cardot came back with a five-bet to 300,000, but Chidwick then six-bet all in and Cardot quickly folded, as Chidwick becomes the latest player to cross the million chip mark.
