Kiriakus Happy to Be Wrong

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Riccardo Saraniero had opened under the gun when Jack Kiriakus put him all in for roughly 100,000 chips. Saraniero snap-called to put his tournament life at risk.

Riccardo Saraniero: JJ All in
Jack Kiriakus: 109

"I think this time you win," Kiriakus told Saraniero.

However, the deck had other ideas when it ran out 1043106 to give Kiriakus trips.

Saraniero frustratedly left the table while Kirakus claimed, "I'm not proud, but I'm happy."

Suutari Gets a Warning From the Floor, Then Busts to Hansen

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Juho Suutari and Sindre Hansen saw a flop of A83 when Suutari bet 90,000 from middle position, leaving just one 5,000 chip behind.

The floor was called over and they ruled Suutari would only be given 15 seconds on his next decision and would be unable to use any time banks. Hansen then moved all in from the hijack and Suutari tossed in his last chip.

Juho Suutari: Q10 All in
Sindre Hansen: 99

Suutaro needed to improve against Hansen's nines but missed the 2 turn and 4 river as he was sent to the rail.
