Jauring Loses a Flip to Bubble

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

Nikolaos Oikonomou had raised from under the gun then called the 53,000-chip shove of Tomas Jauring from the hijack.

Tomas Jauring: JJ All in
Nikolaos Oikonomou: KQ

Jauring was in the lead and his jacks remained in front after the 829 flop. A 3 turn left him one card away from a double-up, but the Q river paired Oikonomou, which meant Jauring was the bubble boy.

Minzariu Shows Georgian the Bad News

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

Paul Minzariu opened to 12,000 first to act and Georgian Ionut Chirieac shoved for a bit under 100,000 from the hijack. Action folded back around to Minzariu, who said "I have some really bad news," as he called to put Chirieac at risk.

Georgian Ionut Chirieac: QQAll in
Paul Minzariu: AA

Chirieac had run into aces, and the JK83J runout changed nothing to eliminate him a few spots short of the bubble.

Kiers Hits Half a Million

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

Martijn Kiers opened from early position to 10,000 and Stanislav Ivanov three-bet to 32,500 from the small blind. Kiers then put in a four-bet to around 65,000, and Ivanov shoved for roughly 140,000. Kiers snap-called.

Stanislav Ivanov: KK All in
Martijn Kiers: QQ

Ivanov was in great shape to score a late double-up, but the flop of QA2 severely dampened his plans as Kiers improved to middle set. An 8 on the turn wasn't any help to Ivanov, and neither was the 8 river, which meant he was eliminated and Kiers' stack grew to around half a million.

Isberg Falls to Baranek's Cowboys

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

Action folded around to the blinds, where Rene Baranek raised from the small blind and Kyosti Isberg quickly shoved for approximately 50,000 from the big blind. Baranek called to put Isberg at risk and hands were revealed.

Kyosti Isberg: K6All in
Rene Baranek: KK

The J84 flop gave Isberg hope with a flush draw, but the 9 turn and A river bricked out to eliminate Isberg as the bubble draws near.

Jurcuta Flipped Out by Walter

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Paul Florin Jurcuta
Paul Florin Jurcuta

Paul Jurcuta opened from middle position to 8,000 and Andreas Walter three-bet from the hijack to 20,000. When the action got back to Jurcuta, he shoved for around 70,000, and Walter quickly called.

Paul Jurcuta: 88 All in
Andreas Walter: AK

Jurcuta was the at-risk player and fell behind on the K25 flop as Walter paired his king. Only a snowman or running clubs could save Jurcuta, and the 2 turn eliminated the chance of a backdoor flush. The 4 river was also no help, which meant Jurcuta hit the rail as the money bubble edged closer.

Flush Over Flush Sees Tropschuh Eliminated By Puccilli

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Stefano Puccilli
Stefano Puccilli

There were already around 50,000 chips in the pot on a board of A755 when Tobias Tropschuh checked and Stefano Puccilli fired 25,000. Tropschuh then shoved for around 40,000, and Puccilli quickly called.

Tobias Tropschuh: 43 All in
Stefano Puccilli: QJ

Tropschuh had a smaller flush but amazingly did have outs to survive as two cards would improve him to a straight flush! However, he couldn't find his two-outer as the 4 completed the board, which left him on the sidelines and sent Puccilli's stack rocketing up the counts.
