Shylko Eliminated by Benitez

Ollie Garland

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

Aliaksandr Shylko's stack had taken a bit of a hit in the last level and he was eventually forced all in from the mandatory post of the small blind for his last 3,000.

Lorenzo Arduini raised in early position to 21,000, Francisco Benitez three-bet on the button to 60,000 and Arduini folded.

Aliaksandr Shylko: 3♥2♥
Francisco Benitez: K♠3♠

Shylko was dominated and it stayed that way as the board ran out A♦8♠4♠7♦10♠. Shylko was sent to the rail.

Reard Hits the Rail

Ryan Lashmar

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Action folded around to Nugzar Glonti who moved all in from the small blind and a short-stacked Alexandre Reard made the call from the big blind to put himself at risk.

Alexandre Reard: 10♦9♥
Nugzar Glonti, A♠7♥

Both players caught a piece of the 9♠4♠3♠ flop with Reard pulling ahead with top pair but Glonti with plenty of outs in the form of a flush draw and live ace. The 6♦ turn improved neither player but the K♠ river gave Glonti the nut-flush, securing Reard's elimination while Glonti took down another decent pot.

Shylko Flops It to Send Stojanovic Packing

Ollie Garland

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

After an earlier all-in confrontation, Vlada Stojanovic found himself all in and at risk, again, against Aliaksandr Shylko.

Aliaksandr Shylko: A♥Q♠
Vlada Stojanovic: K♥Q♥

This time Shylko was the under dog. That was until the dealer spread the flop as it came 8♥9♥2♥. The 5♣ turn and the 4♠ river changed nothing and Stojanovic was sent to the rail.

Ryan Lashmar

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Nugzar Glonti moved all in from early position for 107,000 and received a call from Saman Nakhjavani in middle position to put Glonti at risk.

Nugzar Glonti: A♠J♣
Saman Nakhjavani: 8♣8♠

The board ran out A♦J♦2♦4♥2♥. Glonti's two pair, aces and jacks was good for the winner and he received a full double up while making a dent in Nakhjavani's stack.

Ollie Garland

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Kelvin Kerber opened from the button for 16,000, Frederic Breton three-bet from the small blind to 36,000 and Kerber called.

Breton bet 71,000 on a flop of 2♠4♣2♦. Kerber moved all in for just 5,000 more and Breton called.

Kelvin Kerber: A♦9♣
Frederic Breton: K♦10♣

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Giuseppe Ruocco: 8♣8♠
Tiziano Di Romualdo: A♣Q♥

The board ran out J♣J♥K♠10♥9♥. Ruocco had pocket eights, but Di Romualdo turned a straight to give him the pot. Ruocco was eliminated from the tournament early on Day 2.

Weissman Off to a Hot Start

Ryan Lashmar

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Thomas Pearn opened to 16,000 from the hijack and Joey Weissman moved all in for 106,000. Pearn snap-called to put Weissman at risk.

Joey Weissman: K♦J♦
Thomas Pearn: A♥K♠

Weissman was in rough shape with a dominated king but picked up a ton of equity in the form of a flush draw on the 10♥3♦7♦ flop. The 10♠ turn was of no help but he spiked the flush on the 9♦ river to receive a full double up at the expense of Pearn.

Player	Chips	Progress
Joey Weissman	232,000 126,000	126,000

Thomas Pearn	143,000 9,000	9,000
