Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

"I'm playing really bad, I'm just getting lucky," Parker Talbot said to David Coleman, who had just moved to this table and was still stacking up his chips.

The table then folded to Coleman in the small blind who moved all in, and Balakrishna Patur called for 75,000 in the big blind.

Balakrishna Patur: A♦9♥ All in
David Coleman: K♠6♠

Coleman hit a pair on the Q♥6♦3♥ flop to take the lead, while Patur missed the 10♣ turn and 7♦ river as Coleman sent him to the payout desk.

"See, I told you, very lucky," Coleman said to Talbot. "Very, very, lucky," Coleman added.

Eero Rantala raised to 12,000 and Yevhenii Kuzmin shoved for 48,000. When the action got back to Rantala, he made the call which put Kuzmin at risk.

Yevhenii Kuzmin: A♦7♠ All in
Eero Rantala: K♠10♠

Valverde's Full House Sends Kolendowski Packing

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Kai Cocklin

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

The action folded all the way to Fernando Valverde in the small blind who shoved, and Bartosz Kolendowski called off his stack of around 100,000 from the big blind.

Bartosz Kolendowski: A♣3♠ All in
Fernando Valverde: 10♥9♥

Kolendowski fell behind on the K♥K♣10♦ flop and was drawing to only a chop when Valverde improved to a full house on the 10♣ turn. No help arrived on the 6♦ river which meant Kolendowski's Main Event run had come to an end.
