Kocab Runs Out Danchev

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Dimitar Danchev
Dimitar Danchev

Shortly after Matija Kajtez's double up on this table, Jiri Kocab and Dimitar Danchev tangled in another all-in pot.

There was around 80,000 in the pot on a flop of 427 when Danchev got the rest of his 100,000 in the middle from the big blind and Kocab had him at risk in middle position.

Dimitar Danchev: AK
Jiri Kocab: 88

Danchev needed to improve against Kocab's pair of eights, but he missed the Q turn and 5 river as the EPT champion was sent to the rail.

Lipien Doubles Astedt

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Middle position opened the action to 10,000, before Niklas Astedt shoved all in on the button. Jaroslaw Lipien, who had the Swede covered, raised it and the middle position folded.

Niklas Astedt: AK
Jaroslaw Lipien: AQ

A flop of 925 gave Lipien a flush draw.

The 4 on the turn then also gave Astedt a flush draw.

But neither hit and Lipien missed his queen outs as the 8 river came, doubling up Astedt.

Kajtez Already Writing a Chip and a Chair Story

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jiri Kocab raised to 12,000 in the cutoff and Luke Marsh called in the small blind. Matija Kajtez then moved all in for 35,000 in the big blind and only Marsh called.

Matija Kajtez: KJ
Luke Marsh: AK

Kajtez was dominated as the board came out 6873, but he caught the J on the river to double up.

"I think I win the one million. I feel it," Kajtez said. "Write down, 'Matija wins the Main Event."

Early Exit for Solovev

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Vladislav Solovev became one of the first casualties of Day 3. Sitting in the small blind, he shoved over the top of Luke Marsh's 10,000 open from the cutoff. Solovev got called and was covered as it went to the flop.

Vladislav Solovev: 1010
Luke Marsh: KQ

The Mexican got no help on the 24A flop and was still behind.

Nothing changed on the 9 turn.

A J on the river confirmed Solovev's exit, while Marsh improved to around average stack.
