Nesterov Doubles Through Kisacikoglu

Level 16 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Jakov Nesterov moved all in for 98,000 from the hijack and Orpen Kisacikoglu moved in for more from the small blind. Teun Mulder folded his big blind to leave the pot heads-up.

Jakov Nesterov: {a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Orpen Kisacikoglu: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

The flop came {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{8-Spades} immediately bringing two pair to Nesterov. The {5-Hearts} turn and {k-Diamonds} river changed nothing and Nesterov earned himself a double-up.

Garagnani Doubles Through Nesterov

Level 15 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Pedro Garagnani moved all in from under the gun for 85,000 and got called by Jakov Nesterov in the big blind.

Pedro Garagnani: {k-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}
Jakov Nesterov: {a-Hearts}{4-Spades}

Nesterov had the best hand to start with his ace-high versus Garagnani's king-high and was looking good to hold through the flop of {9-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, but the {k-Spades} on the turn paired Garagnani and the {j-Spades} on the river changed nothing to give Garagnani a double up and put Nesterov on the short stack.

Level 15 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Simon Mattsson
Simon Mattsson

Tauan Naves opened to 25,000 from under the gun and Simon Mattsson three-bet to 70,000 in the cutoff. Naves called and they went heads-up to a flop of {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{8-Spades}.

Naves checked to Mattsson who continued with a bet of 30,000 and Naves called. The turn brought the {2-Hearts} and Naves checked again. Mattsson made another bet of 65,000 and Naves still called.

The {10-Clubs} landed on the river and Naves checked once more. Mattsson announced a bet of 200,000, leaving just 10,000 behind. Naves instantly moved all in and Mattsson called off the last of his chips. Naves tabled {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for the rivered nuts while Mattsson showed {a-Clubs}{8-Hearts} for the second best hand.

On the {j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{10-Hearts} flop, Adams led for 17,000, which Nesterov raised to 45,000.

Petrangelo Falls to Muehloecker

Level 15 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Nick Petrangelo
Nick Petrangelo

The action folded around to Nick Petrangelo on the button who moved all in for his last 80,000 chips. Thomas Muehloecker called from the small blind and Conor Beresford quickly folded his big blind.

Nick Petrangelo: {a-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}
Thomas Muehloecker: {5-Spades}{5-Hearts}

Petrangelo was up against it but the flop of {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} gave him some counterfeit outs. The {9-Clubs} and {10-Spades} runout was no help and Petrangelo exited the tournament area.

Mulder Fires Twice

Level 15 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Teun Mulder opened to 20,000 from under the gun and Orpen Kisacikoglu defended from the big blind. The flop fell {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and Kisacikoglu check-called a bet of 30,000 from Mulder.

The {a-Spades} paired the board on the turn and Kisacikoglu checked again. Mulder sized up a bet of 62,000 this time and that was enough to get Kisacikoglu to muck his cards.
