Deuces Never Lose From Rajkovic

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Konstantyn Holskyi raised to 20,000 in the hijack, Adi Rajkovic moved all in for 177,000 in the small blind, and Holskyi called.

Adi Rajkovic: 22 All in
Konstantyn Holskyi: AJ

Rajkovic needed his deuces to hold up to survive as the flop came 987, giving Holskyi a straight draw to go with his overcards. The turn was the 5, while the 8 fell on the river to give Rajkovic the double up.

"Deuces never loses," a tablemate said to Rajkovic.

Thimm Takes From Graells

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Ricardo Graells on the button opened to 20,000 from the button and he was called by both players in the blinds.

He continued for 20,000 on the A510 flop, but only Markus Thimm in the big blind check-called.

Both players checked the 4 turn leading to the 10 river that Thimm checked.

"What's the river? I didn't see," Graells asked to Thimm because he didn't move his head to see the board. He eventually checked back, saying that he was probably "pretty weak" and lost to Thimm's A3.

Le Five-Bet Jams on Suarez

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Tan Le
Tan Le

Anton Suarez raised it up to 20,000 from middle position only for Tan Le to three-bet the hijack to 65,000. Suarez thought it over for quite some time while staring intently at Le's stack. In the end, he decided on a four-bet to 120,000. Le didn't take too long to five-bet jam for around 510,000, resulting in an instant fold from Suarez.

Lam Stuns Kraous on the Turn

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Anton Kraous
Anton Kraous

Chau Shing Lam moved all in from the small blind and Anton Kraous called in the hijack, the two players having nearly identical stacks.

Anton Kraous: A10 All in
Chau Shing Lam: A8

Both players hit a pair on the 1087 flop, but Kraous remained in the lead with his tens. The turn, though, was the 8 to give Lam trips. Kraous failed to improve on the 5 river and Lam secured the pot.

The stacks were counted down and Lam had 179,000, while Kraous had 173,000 and was barely covered as the Day 1b chip leader was sent to the rail.

Suarez Turns a Set to End Uselis' Main Event

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Anton Suarez raised to 20,000 from middle position and Gediminas Uselis jammed for 110,000 from the hijack. Suarez called when the action got back to him and the cards were tabled.

Gediminas Uselis: AJ All in
Anton Suarez: 77

Uselis took a commanding lead in the hand by pairing his ace on the A28 flop. But, the 7 hit the turn to give Suarez a set and leave Uselis drawing dead. An inconsequential 4 landed on the river, and Uselis was out of the event.
