Ollie Garland

Level 13 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Ollie Garland

Level 13 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Chris Brewer raised to 16,000 from under the gun, Viacheslav Buldygin three-bet to 50,000 from the cutoff and Steve O'Dwyer called off the bet for his last 45,000 in the small blind. Brewer folded.

Steve O'Dwyer: 5♣5♦
Viacheslav Buldygin: A♠Q♥

This flip looked good for O'Dwyer as the first four cards fell 9♠2♦9♥4♣, however, the Q♠ river saw Buldygin hit one of his six outs to eliminate O'Dwyer.

Lonis Out; Wakil Triples

Dan O'Hair

Level 13 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Jesse Lonis shoved for his last 81,000 from the cutoff and just behind him, Viacheslav Buldygin three-bet to 300,000. Jamil Wakil used up multiple time extensions from the small blind before committing his last 74,000 into the middle from the small blind and a three-way showdown was held.

Jamil Wakil: Q♥J♥
Jesse Lonis: A♠8♥
Viacheslav Buldygin: A♥J♠

The 6♥2♠Q♠ flop put Wakil out in front with a pair of queens and the 5♥ turn and 5♣ river changed nothing — awarding Wakil the triple up and eliminating Lonis while Buldygin took a tiny side pot.

Aerts Spikes the Turn to Double

Ollie Garland

Level 11 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Rui Ferreira raised to 10,000 from the button and Pieter Aerts three-bet jammed for 66,000 from the big blind. Ferreira snap-called.

Pieter Aerts: A♦6♠
Rui Ferreira: 8♦8♣

The 4♦10♠Q♣ flop was a safe on for Ferreira, however, the A♠ turn put Aerts out in front. The 9♠ sealed the victory for Ferreira and he doubled up.

However, Artur Martirosian was seemingly not so lucky as he was seen exiting the tournament floor from a different table at the same time.
