Karolis Sereika shoved in his short stack from middle position, Bernard Vadella rejammed for 142,000 in the hijack, Tibor Nagygyörgy rejammed from the cutoff, and Tomas Jozonis called for his stack of approximately 140,000 in the small blind.

Karolis Sereika: {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Tomas Jozonis: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Bernard Vadella: {k-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Tibor Nagygyörgy: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}

Nagygyörgy had the best of it with his opponents covered but still needed to hold. The board ran out {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{5-Clubs} and the Hungarian claimed the sizable pot to send three players to the payout desk.

Mooney Wins Showdown Pot Against Shehadeh

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Picking up the action on the heads-up turn of {q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}, John Mooney opted to check and then called a bet worth 57,000 by Luigi Shehadeh from one seat over. The {5-Clubs} on the river slowed down both opponents and Mooney tabled his {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for queens and fives. That was good enough to win the pot as Shehadeh quickly mucked his cards.

Not a Sad Affair for Simone

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The action was picked up on the {9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop on which Kazuhiko Yotsushika checked out of the big blind and Eddie Saade did so from one seat over. Alfonso Simone then bet 24,000 on the button for both of his opponents to call.

Yotsushika led the {2-Spades} turn for 50,000 and Saade called. Simone moved all-in to force out Yotsushika while Saade asked for an exact count. The shove was for 149,000 total and Saade tank-called.

Alfonso Simone: {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}
Eddie Saade: {k-Spades}{9-Hearts}

Saade immediately sighed when the cards were turned over and tapped the table with a "nice hand". Simone had the double locked up with his set and further improved to a full house on the {2-Diamonds} river.

Conqui Shoves the Flop to Take a Big Pot

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

After a clash before the flop, a big pot of over 225,000 was brewing in the middle and {8-Clubs}{9-Spades}{k-Hearts} was on the board. Alessandro Adinolfo bet 75,000 from the big blind and Jerome Conqui quickly and excitedly announced he was all in from the button. Adinolfo leaned back.

After a few moments of thought, Adinolfo got away from it and Conqui took the pot.

The win was not without distraction, however, as Conqui accidentally folded out of turn on the next hand while stacking the big pot. He was given a warning and all was well.
