Brett Slezak

Level 33 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Max Bashlawi jammed the button for 2,425,000 and Dennis Hertel looked him up from the big blind.

Max Bashlawi: A♠7♦ All in
Dennis Hertel: K♠9♣

Bashlawi was a slight favorite and it stayed that way on the 10♣7♠2♠2♣Q♣ runout as sevens were good enough for the full double at the expense of Hertel.

Nedelcu needed some help, but the 9♠A♦8♦3♥Q♥ runout left Reard best with a pair of aces to eliminate Nedelcu late in the evening.

Mario Fata opened 500,000 under the gun and Kevin Madar defended the big blind.

The Q♦ hit the turn, and Madar check-snap-called once again. This time Fata fired 600,000.

When the 6♥ landed on the river, both players tapped the table. Madar tabled K♠9♠ for a full house and Fata mucked his hand.

Level 33 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Theodoros Ampelikiotis opened 500,000 and Kevin Madar called next to act before Parker Talbot defended the big blind.

When the A♦7♦5♠ flop hit the felt, the action checked to Madar who fired 550,000. Talbot folded, and Ampelikiotis made the call.

The Q♥ landed on the turn, and Ampelikiotis check-called another bet of 800,000 from Madar.

The board completed with the 8♦ on the river and both players tapped the table. Ampelikiotis rolled A♥10♣ for top pair, and Madar mucked his hand.

Level 34 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Dario Pieruzzini opened to 600,000 from under the gun. On the button, Johannes Verhagen three-bet to 1,500,000. Pieruzzini responded with a four-bet shove for 6,225,000. Verhagen confirmed the count and folded after a minute of deliberation.

Pieruzzini proudly tabled K♦Q♣ for a bluff as his shove got through against supposedly ace-jack.
