David Salituro

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

Aleksei Vandyshev moved all in for 107,000 from the cutoff and Yair Marcus put him at risk in early position.

Aleksei Vandyshev: A♥K♥ All in
Yair Marcus: 10♠10♥

The flop came 10♦Q♣5♦ to give Marcus a set, while Vandyshev was left looking to complete a straight draw to stay alive. The turn was the 3♦, while the A♣ arrived on the river too late to save Vandyshev, who was sent to the rail. Another tablemate told Marcus he folded ace-ten, meaning Marcus had hit the last one in the deck on the flop to win the pot.

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

The pot had grown to 250,000 when Mthfar Al Hamede and Clyde Tjauw Foe reached the 10♠9♦7♠4♠A♥ river. Tjauw Foe then fired a big bet of 225,000 from the big blind, sending Al Hamede into the tank.

After some time, Al Hamede assembled calling chips and pushed them over the line. Tjauw Foe was quick to show Q♠J♠ for a flush, and Al Hamede could only tap the table as he conceded the pot.

Tomasz Brzezinski raised to 20,000 in the hijack and was called by Ioannis Poullos in the cutoff and Johnny Ostbjerg on the button. Ding Fan then moved all in for 161,000 in the big blind, and only Brzezinski called.

Ding Fan: 6♠6♣ All in
Tomasz Brzezinski: 9♠9♣

Brzezinski had Fan dominated, and the 7♣J♥Q♠5♠9♥ board improved him to a set and sent Fan to the rail as the EPT Malta champion moved up past 1,000,000.

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

Clyde Tjauw Foe raised to 20,000 in the hijack and was called by Adil Tlimisov in the cutoff, Thierry Chanson on the button, and Davit Mikhanashvili in the big blind.

Foe continued for 10,000 on the 7♣7♠4♠ flop and action folded to Mikhanashvili, who raised to 31,000. Foe called, and the Q♣ fell on the turn.

Mikhanashvili checked to Foe who bet 50,000. Mikhanashvili took a few minutes before the clock was called and he eventually put in the chips. The river was the J♦ and Foe moved all in. Mikhanashvili quickly folded this time, and Foe turned over A♣K♦ as he took in the pot.

"Fun hand," Foe said.

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

Three players saw a flop of 4♦A♠5♦ when Andre Winkler bet 40,000 from early position. Ibrahim Ghassan called in the hijack, but Shahar Levi then moved all in from under the gun.

Winkler folded, but Ghassan called for his last 140,000.

Ibrahim Ghassan: Q♦9♦ All in
Shahar Levi: A♦7♦

Ghassan had a flush draw, but he was drawing thin as Levi not only had a higher flush draw but also top pair. The 7♥ turn improved Levi to two pair, while the 8♣ fell on the river and Ghassan was sent to the rail. Winkler then admitted he folded ace-jack.
