Alt Chips Up Through Madani

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

Hossein Madani opened to 1,000 on the button and then called the three-bet to 3,700 by Dinesh Alt in the small blind. As the flop fell {j-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, Alt continued for 2,500 and Madani pondered about his next move for a while to then raise to 7,500, earning a call from Alt.

The {q-Hearts} turn was check-called by Alt for 7,000 and he then did so again for 7,800 on the {8-Spades} river. Madani exposed the {a-Clubs}{5-Spades} for a bluff gone wrong and Alt raked in the seizable pot with the {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}.

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

With 6,600 in the middle to the {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{k-Hearts} river, Byron Kaverman checked in the cutoff and Lukas Zaskodny then bet 6,400 on the button. The check-shove by Kaverman for around 14,000 followed and Zaskodny eyeballed the stack of his opponent before eventually giving up.

Kasai Chips Up Further

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

Heads-up on the {k-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{2-Spades}{6-Diamonds} turn, Jonathan Barusta checked and then called a bet worth 4,000 by the table big stack Jun Kasai. The {7-Diamonds} on the river was checked by both and Barusta tabled the {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for tens and deuces.

Kasai had that beat with {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds} for the superior two pair and chipped up further.

Maltez Doubles Through Klaversma; Klaversma Bounces Right Back

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante
Arnaud Mattern
Arnaud Mattern

With a full board of {9-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{3-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, Tim Klaversma was seen paying off Fabrice Maltez, who had committed his last 35,000 with {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}. Klaversma was showing {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}, which wasn't good enough to beat the three aces of Maltez.

On the very next hand, Arnaud Mattern open-shoved for 7,800 and Klaversma shoved behind with his last 9,000. The rest of the table got out of the way and action was heads up with Mattern at risk.

Arnaud Mattern: {4-Spades}{4-Hearts}
Tim Klaversma: {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {k-Spades}{7-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} and Klaversma made a pair of kings to eliminate Mattern and bring his stack partially back to health.

Oya Busts a Second Time

Level 5 : 200/500, 500 ante

The board and {10-Clubs}{9-} of Masashi Oya were already rushed away in the last hand before the break as the player from Japan was sent to the rail. It was the second time he lost all of his chips and he won't be able to re-enter anymore, as the tournament only allows for a maximum of two entries.

Joseph Sabe was on the receiving end in the last showdown as he claimed the pot with the {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} to further cement his decent start into the day. Further assorted counts from nearby tables can be found below.

Sellam Bad Beats Puetz

Level 5 : 200/500, 500 ante

In a preflop raising war, Frenchman Rubens Sellam was all-in and at risk for the last 21,300 and it was one of the most classic setups in which he was in dire shape against Christopher Puetz.

Rubens Sellam: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Christopher Puetz: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

Sellam sighed visibly and was ready to leave when he found no help on the {j-Spades}{10-Spades}{5-Diamonds} flop and {2-Diamonds} turn. However, the {k-Diamonds} river came to the rescue and Sellam doubled to leave Puetz short.

The same table also features the defending champion Manig Loeser and Jessica Teusl.
