Netanel's Set Sends Berrehail to the Rail

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 9J2 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: KQ All in
Uri Netanel: 22

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.

Konnikova's Snowmen Eliminate Meladze

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Maria Konnikova
Maria Konnikova

With roughly 9,000 in the pot, on a flop of 638, Merab Meladze shoved for 11,000 with Maria Konnikova calling to put him at risk from the button.

Merab Meladze: 98 All in
Maria Konnikova: 88

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.

Guirao Sends Torelles Packing

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: A8 All in
Antonio Guirao: AQ

The runout of 97324 didn't help Torrelles, as Guirao's ace-queen high was enough to send him to the rail.

Marius Zidonis raised to 2,100 from middle position. Jean Granjon three-bet to 5,000 from the big blind and Zidonis called.

Both players checked the 553 flop to see the 10 come on the turn. Granjon bet around 9,000, which was enough to put Zidonis all-in. Zidonis snap-called and the cards were revealed.

Marius Zidonis: K10 All in
Jean Granjon: AA

Zidonis couldn't find any help on the river as the Q fell. Granjon's pocket aces would be enough to send Zidonis home.
