Ostreni's Stack Collected by Pacini

Calum Grant

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Despite being among the chip leaders a couple of levels ago, Elton Ostreni was all in for his last 17,000 from the button. He was at risk against Marco Pacini, who had the bigger stack.

Elton Ostreni: AxJx All in
Marco Pacini: AxQx

Pacini made trips to remain the favorite following the Q♥Q♠2♠ flop but Ostreni turned outs to Broadway after the K♦ came into play. The A♥ completed the board to give Pacini a boat and the bust out.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Antonio Gonzalez raised to 1,200 from early position. Adria Torrelles shoved from the seat next to him for 8,500. Antonio Guirao then four-bet to 23,000 out of the big blind. Gonzalez folded and the cards were revealed.

Adria Torrelles: A♥8♥ All in
Antonio Guirao: A♦Q♣

The runout of 9♦7♥3♣2♠4♦ didn't help Torrelles, as Guirao's ace-queen high was enough to send him to the rail.

Antonio Guirao	39,000 39,000	39,000
Antonio Gonzalez	22,000 22,000	22,000

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

With roughly 9,000 in the pot, on a flop of 6♦3♣8♦, Merab Meladze shoved for 11,000 with Maria Konnikova calling to put him at risk from the button.

Merab Meladze: 9♦8♣ All in
Maria Konnikova: 8♥8♠

Meladze needed runner-runner to stay alive. He found some help on the 10♦ turn, but the Q♥ river didn't improve his hand and Konnikova's set of eights would eliminate him from the tournament.

Maria Konnikova	45,000 13,500	13,500

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Uri Netanel limped from middle position before Ivanus Cristian raised to 1,100 from cutoff. Sammy Berrehail called from the small blind and Netanel put in the call as well.

The action checked through on the 9♥J♥2♣ flop and the Q♦ came on the turn. Berrehail and Netanel checked again, but Cristian bet 1,500. Berrehail made the call before Netanel check-raised to 5,100. Cristian folded, but Berrehail moved all-in for roughly 11,000. Netanel called and the cards were revealed.

Sammy Berrehail: K♠Q♣ All in
Uri Netanel: 2♦2♥

Berrehail needed some help on the river to survive. However, it didn't come as the dealer put out the J♦, improving Netanel to a full house and eliminating Berrehail.

Player	Chips	Progress
Uri Netanel	58,000 58,000	58,000
Ivanus Cristian	23,000 3,500	3,500
