Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Reiji Kono opened to 2,500 first-to-act and was called by Marc Foggin in the cutoff and Sonny Franco in the big blind.

Franco checked to Kono on the 3♠2♥7♠ flop and he bet 4,000. Foggin called and Franco folded.

Kono check-called a 5,000 bet from Foggin on the 6♦ turn and checked once more after the 6♠ completed the board. Foggin put a stack of chips into the middle, which was enough to put Kono all in for his last 16,200.

Kono deliberated a bit and eventually put his remaining chips into the middle while tabling 9♦9♣. Foggin couldn't beat it and mucked — conceding the pot to Kono.

Player	Chips	Progress
Marc Foggin	115,000 35,000	35,000

Ludovic Kis: A♠A♣

The board ran out 4♣8♦2♣9♥8♠; Roovers couldn't pull in front of Kis' aces and he was sent to the rail.

Bryan Paris raised to 2,500 from middle position, then Bogdan-Andrei Munteanu three-bet to 7,500. Action folded back around to Paris, who four-bet all in for 55,000. Munteanu folded to concede the pot.

The following hand, Munteanu raied to 2,500 from late position and Diogo De Melo Cardoso moved all in from the small blind for 16,100. Munteanu folded again to give Cardoso the pot.

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Dominik Nitsche opened to 4,200 from the cutoff and found one caller in Leo Worthington-Leese from the big blind.

Worthington-Leese checked to Nitsche on the J♣K♣2♦ flop and he continued for 5,200. Worthington-Leese then check-raised to 18,000 and Nitsche called.

The 10♥ fell on the turn and Worthington-Leese announced he was all in for 42,000 total — sending Nitsche deep into the tank.

Nitsche eventually thought better of it and let his hand go.

Ollie Garland

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Alexandre Reard raised to 2,600 from under the gun, Vladimir Troyanovskiy called in the cutoff, as did both the blinds.

The action checked to Reard, who bet out 3,400 on the J♣2♥9♣. Only Troyanovskiy called.

The 6♥ turn checked through to the 3♥ on the river. Reard bet out 8,900 and Troyanovskiy made the call. Reard tabled A♠J♦ for top pair; good enough to win this pot.

Vladimir Troyanovskiy	139,000 109,000	109,000
Alexandre Reard	52,000 19,000	19,000
