Seo is the CEO of Hitting Flushes

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Moonho Seo open-jammed a stack of 11,000 from under the gun and got action from the bigger-stacked Andrew Hulme in the small blind.

Moonho Seo: {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Andrew Hulme: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

The flop of {3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} kept Hulme ahead but gave Seo several outs with a flush draw. He didn't have to sweat long as the {10-Clubs} on the turn gave him a lock on the hand for a double before the {2-Hearts} bricked off on the river.

Wilf Loses a Chunk to Vu

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Three ways to the {q-Hearts}{6-Spades}{3-Spades}{j-Spades} turn, Saar Wilf bet 16,000 out of the blinds to force out a third player in the hand and Bernard Vu then raised to 47,000 for Wilf to tank-call.

The {9-Diamonds} fell on the river and Wilf now checked, which prompted a bet of 100,000 by Vu. That covered Wilf's remaining stack, who ended up sigh-folding. "You bluffed me, right?" he asked his opponent while Vu was busy stacking the chips but received no answer.

Lodge Joins the Chip Leaders After Busting Hulme

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Harry Lodge
Harry Lodge

The seat of Andrew Hulme was empty and Harry Lodge was sitting behind a far bigger stack over on the other side of the table. According to French poker media and confirmed by Lodge himself, it was a duel of the Brits that ended up in favor of Lodge.

Hulme's raise from a middle position was called by Lodge in the big blind, who check-called a first bet on the {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} flop. Another check-call on the {4-Hearts} turn led to a pot of around 90,000 and Lodge also checked the {4-} on the river.

Hulme then bet 68,000 only for Lodge to shove for another 110,000 effective on top of that with the covering stack. Hulme couldn't get away from {a-Clubs}{q-Spades} and ended up second-best to the {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} of Lodge.

No Happy Ending for Lehoussine

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Karim Lehoussine only had a handful of chips behind on the {8-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs}{6-Spades} turn and then called all in versus Diego Montone, who tabled the {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}. Lehoussine was behind with {k-Spades}{10-Diamonds}, needing a spade for the flush or nine for the straight.

"I don't have a choice, let's go," he said in French and tried to charm the dealer. "Allez ma chérie, I love youuuuu," Lehoussine chanted and was slowly deflated with a half-crying sound when the {k-Hearts} river failed to improve his holding.
