Demlakian Shoves the River

Matt Hansen

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Action was heads up with 10,000 in the middle and K♣6♣5♠ on the board when Sylwester Fortuna bet 5,000 into a raise to 15,500 from Ken Demlakian. Fortuna called and the turn was 8♦.

Fortuna fired another 5,000 and Demlakian called. The river was 3♣.

Fortuna bet 5,000 once more and Demlakian shoved. It didn't take much thought for Fortuna to find a fold and Demlakian took the pot.

Nistche Busts his Second

Frank Visser

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Aviv Meiri opened from under the gun and Dominik Nitsche went all in for his last 6,000 chips. Meiri made the call and the cards were tabled.

Dominik Nitsche: A♦Q♦
Aviv Meiri: A♠A♥

It was looking grim for Nitsche's last four big blinds and the board sealed his fate on the turn, with 8♣9♥8♠5♣ and the meaningless J♦ being put in the middle of the table.

Nistche immediately reentered for the second time.

Matt Hansen

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Oliver Weis raised to 3,000 from the cutoff and Jon Kyte three-bet to 12,500 from the small blind. Weis fired back a four-bet to 22,000 and Kyte called to see a flop.

The flop was J♥5♥2♥ and Kyte check-called a 4,500 bet from Weis. The turn was 3♣.

Kyte checked again and called when Weis bet 14,500. The river fell 9♣ and Kyte checked again.

Weis shoved his last 61,000 and Kyte went into the tank for a few minutes before he called. Weis turned over A♥K♥ for the nut flush and Kyte flashed the before he tossed it into the muck.

Chaoui spent some time in the tank before deciding to bet 22,000 this time. Rocha quickly folded and Chaoui shipped a pot to bring him over the 100,000 mark.

Matt Hansen

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Marc Boyer got his last 13,000 into the middle and Danut Chisu was the one to put him at risk. The rest of the table was out of the way and the cards were already on their backs.

Marc Boyer: A♦7♣
Danut Chisu: J♥J♠

The board ran out 6♣5♣A♣3♦K♣ and Boyer flopped a pair of aces before the four-card flush put an exclamation mark on his small double.

Nikiforov Downs Da Silva

Frank Visser

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Ilya Nikiforov open-raised to 4,000 from early position before Leonardo Da Silva pushed his stack of 35,500 in the middle from the hijack. The action folded back to NIkiforov, who asked for a count. When that was given to him, he made the call to put Da Silva at risk.

Leonardo Da Silva: A♥J♥
Ilya Nikiforov: A♣K♥

Da Silva flopped a flush draw on 6♥4♥Q♠ and the 10♣ turn brought him even more outs. Too many, as some would say, as Nikiforov's ace-king held when the 9♣ river completed the board.

Nikiforov is now playing near 250,000 chips and is among the bigger stacks in the room.
