Level: 17
Blinds: 3,000/6,000
Ante: 6,000
The remaining 145 players have been sent on a short 20-minute break.
Here are some highlights from the past level:
The action was on the turn this time, on a board of 2♠A♠4♣Q♦, and Julien Sitbon fired out a bet of 18,000. Kimmo Kurko moved all in for 95,000, which again left Sitbon scratching his head.
Sitbon had no time bank cards, having used them all when his opponent shoved the river in a previous hand, so after 30 seconds, his hand was folded and Kurko took the pot.
Denis Charlier raised to 10,000 from early position, with Jeremie Zouari calling from the small blind and Sebastien Compte defending his big blind.
After it checked to Charlier on the 5♥J♣4♠ flop he shoved for 57,000. Zourai burned through a time extension before releasing his hand, but Compte folded instantly. Charlier showed the J♦ for top pair as he pulled in the pot.
The 9♠7♣2♠ flop was already dealt, and both Arjel Daci and Joachim Haraldstad had their cards flipped.
Joachim Haraldstad: J♠7♠
Arjel Daci: K♥K♣
Haraldstad had many outs to break Daci's pocket kings, but the 5♦ turn and 2♥ river provided none of them, and he was sent to the rail.
Action was on the river on a board of 4♣K♠2♥6♦7♠ and the pot was already heavy with blue chips worth totalling around 200,000. Julien Sitbon checked and Gianfranco Iaculli pushed all in on the river. Sitbon went deep into the tank and eventually timed out after using all of his time bank cards to give Iaculli the pot.
Enrico Camosci opened the action from early position and was three-bet by Ivan Zhechev from the small blind, which he called.
The dealer put out the 7♥3♦K♣ flop, and Zhechev made a continuation bet of 20,000. Camosci called. The action slowed down on the 6♦ turn, as both players elected to check.
The 6♥ completed the board, and after using a timebank chip, Zhechev checked again. Camosci announced all-in for the effective stack of 250,000 of his opponent. Zhechev went deep into the tank but eventually decided to fold.
