Josh Noy

Level 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Francois Vincenti answered an early position raise from Robert Sanchez Callol by moving all in from middle position. The action folded back around to Callol, who made the call.

Francois Vincenti: J♠J♣
Robert Sanchez Callol: Q♣Q♦

Vincenti was unable to find any help on the 4♣2♣4♦ flop and was left drawing dead after Callol found a full house on the Q♥ turn. The 6♦ completed the board, sending Vincenti to the rail.

Level 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Fabian Bartuschk opened to 160,000 from middle position and Petros Karadimos three-bet to 500,000. Bartuschk asked Karadimos for a count of his current stack before moving all in for 2,205,000. Bartuschk considered his options for about 90 seconds before sticking in the call to put Bartuschk at risk.

Fabian Bartuschk: A♠A♦
Petros Karadimos: 10♠10♥

Bartuschk was well ahead with the best possible starting hand until the flop came 10♣9♠6♦ with a ten in the window, eliciting a sigh from Bartuschk who was suddenly drawing to two outs. Those outs never came on the Q♣2♣ turn and river and Bartuschk's run came to an end while Karadimos catapuled up the chip counts.

Gino Cardenas and Emmanouil Asgoudakis were heads up to a flop showing Q♣10♠6♦, with Cardenas leading out for half of the pot.

Asgoudakis announced all in and was quickly called by Cardenas.

Emmanouil Asgoudakis: K♣K♥
Gino Cardenas: Q♥10♥

Asgoudakis saw the bad news as his pocket kings were behind, unable to improve on the 3♦ turn. Cardenas then made a full house on the 10♦ river, ending a deep run for Asgoudakis.

David Hareuveni opened to 160,000 from the small blind and Parker Talbot defended from the big blind.

Hareuveni slowed down with a check on the 2♣ turn and Talbot took the initiative, betting 355,000 which was enough to force a fold from his opponent.

Istvan Varga: A♥J♣
Avihai Smadga: K♥9♥

Varga's ace-high was never threatened on the 3♣7♠6♥7♦10♠ runout to score the double up, while Smadga's big stack took a slight hit.

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Maciej Kondraszuk raised to 135,000 from the button and Frederik Johansen called from the small blind.

The flop was 8♥J♦2♥ and both players checked to see A♦ on the turn.

Johansen checked again on the turn and called when Kondraszuk put out 105,000.

The river was K♦ and Johansen checked once more. Kondraszuk put out 210,000 but he snap-folded Johansen fired back with a shove.

Johansen is on a red-hot Day 3 run and he is now at the 3,000,000 mark.

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Daniel Herrera opened to 200,000 from under the gun and Marius Lussi moved all in from middle position for approximately 600,000. Herrera made the call with a covering stack.

Marius Lussi: A♣8♣
Daniel Herrera: K♣10♣

Lussi was in great shape to secure the double up and remained so on the 6♠5♠4♣ flop and Q♦ turn. That all changed when the river brought the 10♥, giving Herrera a pair of tens to eliminate Lussi and take down the pot.
