Ace-High Flush No Good For Iermolcheva Against Sanchez

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Samuel Sanchez
Samuel Sanchez

Olga Iermolcheva was down to her last 6,000 and moved all in from the button as Samuel Sanchez put her at risk in early position.

Olga Iermolcheva: A10 All in
Samuel Sanchez: 65

The 9K8 flop gave both players a flush draw. The 7 fell on the turn to give Iermolcheva the ace-high flush, but she was already drawing dead as Sanchez made a straight flush to a round of "oohs" from the other players at the table. The river was the 5 and Iermolcheva was sent to the rail.

Sebastian Schulze: KK All in

Shiina Okamoto: AKAll in
Pawel Janusz: A10

Okamoto had way the best of it, but the flop came A102, giving Janusz two pair with his ten.

The river Q kept her ahead to give her a much-needed double up.

Sterner Looking to Add More EPT Cashes to His Resume

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Joost Hollak opened from middle position and Ludvig Sterner three-bet the cutoff to 3,600. Once the blinds folded, Hollak called.

The flop of KQ8 was checked through to the 6 turn. Hollak fired 5,500, and Sterner quickly folded.

Eight of Sterner's last ten live tournament cashes have all come in EPT events, with the last four coming at the 2023 edition of EPT Prague where he cashed four different tournaments on consecutive days, which included a final table appearance.

Van Der Swaluw Takes From Schiano, Schiano Busts Shortly After

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Stefano Schiano opened from the cutoff to 1,000. Alexander Van Der Swaluw called on the button and Edvard Sivuk defended the big blind.

Sivuk checked the 1084 flop to Schiano, who bet 1,800. Van Der Swaluw tanked for a moment before making it 4,800. Sivuk snap-folded and in his haste revealed the K7. He apologised to the table as he did not mean to expose his hand as he mucked. Schiano called.

Schiano checked the 8 before Van Der Swaluw bet 5,500. Schiano took a moment before folding.

Schiano busted shortly after the hand and couldn't spin up his short stack.
