Vetiiko Eliminated by Herrmann

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

After coming back from the break, Pavlo Vertiiko and Dragos Trofimov jammed their short stacks to pick up the blinds and antes. Leonard Herrmann then raised to 6,000 and Vertiiko pushed for 51,000 in order for Herrmann to call.

Pavlo Vertiiko: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}
Leonard Herrmann: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}

The pocket pair remained ahead on the {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{2-Hearts} board and that spelled the end for Vertiiko.

Aldemir Leaves Barukcic Short

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

A completed board of {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} was spread across the felt and Koray Aldemir was heads-up with Goran Barukcic. With a little over 50,000 in the middle already, Barukcic made a bet of 46,000.

Aldemir looked him up and Barukcic showed {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a missed flush draw. Aldemir turned over {q-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for a made flush and was awarded the pot, leaving Barukcic near 10 big blinds.

Jachimavicius Eliminated by Motte

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Koray Aldemir raised to 6,500 and received two callers before Justinas Jachimavicius pushed a shorter stack on the button. Fabien Motte called in the small blind and that forced out everybody else.

Justinas Jachimavicius: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Fabien Motte: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

The {j-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Spades}{6-Clubs} board delivered no help to Jachimavicius and he was sent to the rail.

Diaz Finds a Double Up

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Guillaume Diaz
Guillaume Diaz

Kent Roed opened to 6,000 in middle position and was called by Guillaume Diaz in the cutoff along with the big blind. The flop came {a-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and the action checked to Diaz who bet 6,500. The big blind called and Roed check-raised to 25,000. Diaz called and the big blind stepped aside.

The turn was the {q-Clubs} and Roed moved all in, followed by a snap-call from Diaz for his remaining 76,000 chips. Roed turned over {a-Spades}{j-Hearts} but Diaz had {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} for a better kicker. The river was the {7-Hearts} and Diaz held on for a full double up.

Mantor Leads the Pack; Yotsushika Chips Up

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

A medium-sized pot emerged to the {j-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} turn on which Kazuhiko Yotsushika bet big for 100,000 out of the big blind. Jussi Nevanlinna went into the tank and the clock was called on him. Thirty seconds ran down without any decision and the hand of the Finn as declared dead as Yotsushika chipped up once more.

A few tables over, Didrik Mantor appears to be the current chip leader and he has several shorter stacks fighting for survival. Two of them were involved in the pot just now when Matas Cimbolas min-raised to 6,000 and Natalia Samsonova three-bet jammed for 23,000. Cimbolas tanked and folded eventually.

Samsonova won the pot but bowed out soon after.

Regonaschi Jams Into Vayssieres

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Marco Regonaschi raised it up for Nicolas Vayssieres to defend out of the blinds and the Frenchman then checked the {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop. Regonaschi bet 14,500 for Vayssieres to call and another check by the latter followed on the {5-Hearts} turn.

Regonaschi moved all-in with the covering stack and Vayssieres folded after brief consideration.

Quoss Doubles Through Deak

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Ferenc Deak open-jammed as the far bigger stack out of the small blind and Fabian Quoss called all-in from the big blind for the 52,500 he had behind.

Fabian Quoss: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Ferenc Deak: {a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}

The kicker played on the {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}{3-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} board and Quoss doubled.

Two of the three remaining PokerStars ambassadors can be found on the same table in Benjamin Spragg and Rafael Moraes. Ramon Colillas is also still in the mix with an above-average stack while Andre Akkari has been eliminated some time ago.
