Kings vs Queens

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Demosthenes Kiriopoulos
Demosthenes Kiriopoulos

David Vinayagamoorthy raised it up in early position and Demosthenes Kiriopoulos counted out a three-bet to 55,000 in the cutoff. Vinayagamoorthy responded with a four-bet to around 130,000 and Kiriopoulos five-bet jammed all in for 380,000. Vinayagamoorthy called it off with slightly less and the cards were tabled.

David Vinayagamoorthy: QQ
Demosthenes Kiriopoulos: KK

Kiriopoulos woke up with the better of the two pocket pairs and had both of the suits covered as well. The board ran out A5449 and Vinayagamoorthy was eliminated.

Czuczor Cuts Down Di Gaocomo

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

Claudio Di Giacomo open-shoved from the hijack for his final 186,000 chips. Marton Czuczor was in the hijack and tanked for a while before announcing a minimum raise. The dealer informed him that that would put him all-in as well, and he got a second triangle out of his tray. The rest of the table folded and the players showed down.

Claudio Di Giacomo: AJ
Marton Czuczor: 1010

Czuczor flopped a set on K104 and faded a queen on the 5 turn and 2 river. He was one of the 65 players who have not made it past the first two levels here on Day 2.

Lampropoulos Down but Not Out

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

Maria Lampropoulos came into the day as the shortest stack with 29,000 chips but managed to spin her way up to nearly 150,000 in the early going. Alan Goasdoue raised to 21,000 in the hijack and Lampropoulos defended from the big blind.

The flop came QJ8 and Lampropoulos check-called a bet of 10,000 from Goasdoue. The turn was the 3 and Lampropoulos checked again. Goasdoue fired out another bet of 25,000 and Lampropoulos still called.

The 7 completed the board and both players tapped the table. Lampropoulos tabled A7 for a rivered pair but it was no good against the KJ of Goasdoue. Lampropoulos took another hit to her stack but she's proven she can come back before.

Ruosi Rakes In a Double

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

Johann Zeitoun raised to 20,000 from middle position and Andrea Ruosi went all-in from the cutoff. Zeitoun asked for a count and Ruosi's stack amounted to 149,000. After getting the correct number, Zeitoun made the call to put Ruosi at risk.

Andrea Ruosi: 1010
Johann Zeitoun: AQ

Ruosi won the flip when the board spelled 3K347, and he overtook Zeitoun in the chip counts in the process.

Spragg and Beresford Gone

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Benjamin Spragg
Benjamin Spragg

Good friends Benjamin Spragg and Conor Beresford were just eliminated simultaneously on adjacent tables.

Spragg played a three-bet pot with ace-jack suited, according to his own words ''like a fool'', and could not beat his opponent Enrico Camosci who is now playing nearly 90 big blinds.

On the other hand, Beresford could not muster a win with his pocket queens.

Both players left the tournament area together while discussing their respective hands.
