Kolev Leaps Into the Lead

Level 11 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

On a heads-up turn of {5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{4-Clubs}, Boris Kolev in the big blind and Guram Andronikashvili in the hijack on a six-handed table invested 16,000 each to see the {k-Clubs} on the river. Kolev now bet 85,000 and that sent his opponent into the tank.

After he had used two time banks, Andronikashvili apologized "sorry guys" to which Marius Gierse replied "take your time". Andronikashvili immediately said "a few more time chips" and used two more before making the call.

Kolev tabled the {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} for the six-high straight and further increased his already impressive stack.

Reixach Rushes Jattin Out

Level 10 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Sergi Reixach

The flop read {j-Clubs}{k-Spades}{8-Spades} with 22,000 in the middle.

Sergi Reixach had check-raised the 12,000 button bet of Farid Jattin to 40,000 from the big blind for the latter to tank for a while.

After using a time bank card, Jattin opted to shove for around 125,000. Reixach snap-called.

Farid Jattin: {k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Sergi Reixach: {j-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

They had both flopped two pair but Jattin was ahead with the kings and eights until the turn came with the {j-Spades} for Reixach to improve to a full house. With two outs left, Jattin was getting ready to get up from his chair and when he saw the {3-Clubs} on the river, he made his way out of the tournament area.

At the same time, Jimmy Guerrero was spotted walking to the exit too.

Aldemir Doubles Through Vieira

Level 10 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

With 19,000 in the middle, there were 11,000 in front of Joao Vieira on the button and Koray Aldemir then pushed all-in for 61,500 in the small blind. A potential third player in the and had already folded and Vieira was in the tank. He mulled over his decision for a while and called within the 30 second shot clock.

Koray Aldemir: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Joao Vieira: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

The {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades}{q-Spades} board kept the superior pocket pair ahead and Aldemir doubled.

Mateos and Kisacikoglu Escape From Elimination

Level 10 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Adrian Mateos
Adrian Mateos

Orpen Kisacikoglu raised to 8,000 and was called by Koray Aldemir in the cutoff. Adrian Mateos then pushed for 50,000 in the smallb lind and Kisacikoglu did so for another 32,000 on top. Aldemir called the two all-ins with the biggest stack of the trio.

Adrian Mateos: {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Orpen Kisacikoglu: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Koray Aldemir: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

The {10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop improved Mateos and Kisacikoglu with the latter freerolling thanks to the nut flush draw on top. Nothing changed on the {5-Clubs} turn and {9-Spades} river as Mateos and Kisacikoglu escaped from elimination.

"You are now allowed to win a race anymore," new arrival Joao Vieira joked to the 2021 WSOP Main Event champion Aldemir in table chat.
