Roman Stoica raised to 5,000 on the button, Derk van Luijk three-bet to 15,000 in the big blind, and Stoica called.

The flop came 10♥2♦7♥ and both players checked to the 5♥ turn. Van Luijk then led out for 7,500 and Stoica called.

Van Luijk checked the Q♠ river and Stoica bet 12,000. Van Luijk quickly called and Stoica showed 9♠8♠ for a missed straight draw. Van Luijk turned over Q♣J♣ for a rivered pair of queens to take the pot.

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Malcolm Franchi raised to 5,000 from early position before Kyle Julius pushed in 45,500 chips from the cutoff for an all-in bet.

Hans Erlandsson then reshoved from the button for 130,000 and Franchi let his hand go after some thought.

Kyle Julius: 8♥8♦
Hans Erlandsson: A♣K♣

The 4♣A♥10♣ flop gave Erlandsson top pair and also nullified one of Julius' outs. The 9♣ turn left him drawing dead as Erlandsson made a flush, and the Q♣ river was dealt as a formality.

Julius joined the rail, where many others had also gathered since the start of the level.

Richard Hayes

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Peter Jaksland opened to 5,000 under the gun, and was called by Frederic Normand in middle position and Iurii Kondrat in the big blind.

On the K♣10♦7♥ flop Jaksland continued with a bet of 7,000 when Kondrat checked to him, Normand folded and Kondrat called.

The K♠ turn was checked through by both players, as was the J♦ river.

Kondrat showed A♣10♠ for a pair of tens, which was good enough to cause Jaksland to muck his hand.

Peter Jaksland	215,000 60,000	60,000

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Around 50,000 was in the middle as Daniel Kyosev and Oswin Ziegelbecker went to the turn with the board showing 3♦J♠4♦8♦. Ziegelbecker then bet 15,000 from the small blind and Kyosev called in the cutoff.

The river was the 8♥ and Ziegelbecker slowed down and checked. Kyosev then moved all in for 61,500.

Ziegelbecker asked for a count, then went into the tank for several minutes until deciding to fold.

Samuel Ju is also at this table with a stack of around 300,000.

Charrat Loses The Final Combat

Christian Zetzsche

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Down to the last 32,000 in chips, Younes Charrat opted to move all in from middle position. Joao Sydenstricker on the button asked for a count on the shove, then moved all in, forcing out Aleksejs Ponakovs and Giovani Torre in the blinds.

Younes Charrat: 2♦2♠
Joao Sydenstricker: 6♠6♣

Once Sydenstricker had re-jammed, Charrat was already out of his seat and shook his head, even before all action was concluded. The mighty ducks could not come from behind on the A♠7♠4♠K♣J♦ runout and that spelled the end for the local player.

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Shyngis Satubayev and Georgi Sandev were heads up on a flop of 8♠Q♣7♥. With 44,500 chips already in the middle, Sandev made a bet of 14,000 chips, which Satubayev called.

On the 4♦ turn, Sandev put his opponent all-in for 36,000 and received a snap call.

Shyngis Satubayev: A♠A♣
Georgi Sandev: K♠K♥

Both players had overpairs, but Satubayev had the higher one. His aces were not cracked when the river came the 5♦, and he doubled up to an average stack.

Sandev, meanwhile, was left with just over ten big blinds to play with.

Player	Chips	Progress
Shyngis Satubayev	144,500 144,500	144,500
Georgi Sandev	27,000 15,000	15,000
