Hardcastle Overbet Shoves Turn

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

There was approximately 130,000 in the pot. Jack Hardcastle was in hijack against Fahd Kaabat in the big blind.

The board was {j-Spades}{10-Hearts}{4-Spades}{5-Spades} and Kaabat checked to Hardcastle on the turn. Hardcastle moved all in for 150,000, which was bigger than the size of the pot, in which Kaabat folded.

An Orbit of Folds from Kanit

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

PokerNews stuck around Table 8 to watch Italian pro Mustapha Kanit in action. Anyone who takes poker seriously knows that it's a game of mainly folding, something that was well-demonstrated during this orbit.

Hand #1 (Cutoff): Action folded to Kanit and he followed suit.

Hand #2 (Hijack): Daniel Pujol opened to 25,000 from under the gun and Kanit folded when the action got to him.

Hand #3 (Middle Position): Action folded to Kanit and he open-jammed a stack of around 150,000. Everyone folded.

Hand #4 (Early Position): Action folded to Kanit and he also folded.

Hand #5 (Under the Gun): Kanit was first to act and folded.

Hand #6 (Big Blind): Boris Kuzmanovic raised from the hijack and Kanit folded.

Hand #7 (Small Blind): Mustafa Biz opened to 25,000 on the button and Kanit folded.

Hand #8 (Button): The hijack opened to 30,000 and Kanit folded.

Tkaczyk Gets Double Knockout

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Adrian Tkaczyk
Adrian Tkaczyk

Cards were on their backs in a three-way all in situation. Tommy Beuker was in early position while Adrian Lozano Ayala was on the button. Adrian Tkaczyk had them both covered from the small blind.

Tommy Beuker: {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Adrian Lozano Ayala: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Adrian Tkaczyk: {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}

Tkaczyk had the pocket pair and had to fade the overcards from both opponents. The flop came {9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades} which put Tkaczyk in a good position to score the double knockout. The double knockout came as the {8-Hearts} was the turn and the river was the {2-Diamonds} which gave Tkaczyk more chips than he could count.

Amri Squashes Two Opponents With Two Pair

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

Action was joined on a flop reading {6-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}. Three players were in a hand as Jacques Der Megreditchian bet 21,000 from the cutoff. Boris Kuzmanovic called on the button. Naim Amri raised to 59,000 from the big blind and both of his opponents called.

The turn was the {3-Spades}. Amri led out for 120,000, Der Megreditchian shoved all in, Kuzmanovic also went all in for slightly more and Amri called as the biggest of the three stacks.

Jacques Der Megreditchian: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Boris Kuzmanovic: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Naim Amri: {q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

Amri was in great shape to take out two players with his big blind special type of hand that had flopped two pair. The river was the {7-Clubs} and Amri clapped his hands in celebration as he scored the huge pot that slayed both of his opponents.

Polack Punishes Bitton

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

Samuel Polack was in position in a heads-up pot against Jonathan Bitton and had bet the flop and turn to get to a board of {j-Hearts}{6-Spades}{8-Spades}{5-Hearts}{8-Hearts}.

Bitton checked the river and Polack unloaded the clip by moving all in with Bitton covered. Bitton went deep into the tank and considered calling off with his final 260,000. Someone called the clock and Bitton made the call shortly after.

Polack tabled {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for top pair and Bitton shook his head as he showed {j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for the same pair with a worse kicker to mark his elimination.

Luther Benefits From a Counterfeit

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Action was caught as it was headed to the turn as both Paulo Rodrigues and Nikita Luther both committed chips on a flop of {2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{k-Clubs}. The turn paired the board as the {k-Spades} came off.

From the button Nikita Luther bet 77,000 which Paulo Rodrigues called in the big blind.

The river was the {10-Hearts}. Both players checked. Rodrigues showed the {3-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for flopped two-pair that had become much less valuable on the turn and Luther showed her winning pocket pair the {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts} to add more chips to her growing stack.
