Iakuba Sends Trigg into the Tank

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Richard Trigg opened from the hijack and Anton Iakuba three-bet to 1,600 on the button. Trigg called and the players went heads up to the flop.

The K♠6♦2♥ flop prompted Trigg to check-call a 1,100 bet from Iakuba and both checked the 4♦ turn to see the 2♠ river.

Trigg checked again and Iakuba bet 3,300. Trigg took some time, counted out his stack, and moved in a chip to call.

Iakuba showed Q♠Q♦ for two pair, and Trigg mucked.

Miniucchi Sends Klabisch to Time-Out

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
Marcello Miniucchi
Marcello Miniucchi

Three-way to the J♣3♥6♠5♥ turn, it checked to Mariusz Klabisch under the gun, who bet 1,600. Ferdinando D'Alessio called in the small blind before Marcello Miniucchi bumped it up to 7,500 in the big blind.

Klabisch and D'Alessio both called to the 5♣ river, where Miniucchi sized up to 11,000 after another check by D'Alessio. Klabisch quickly called, while D'Alessio folded.

Miniucchi opened A♠A♥ for aces and fives. A frustrated Klabisch flung his Q♦Q♣ across the table after discovering his overpair was no good.

He got up and walked away from the tournament area to take a breather before returning to his seat and continuing his Main Event.

Trevidy Takes a Tumble

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Osman Aksu opened to 300 on the button and both Koshiro Fujimoto and Ewen Trevidy defended the small blind and big blind respectively.

The 9♥2♥J♣ flop was checked to Aksu who bet 600. Fujimoto called, and Trevidy raised to 2,000. Aksu re-raised to 7,000 and Fujimoto folded. Trevidy called and the players went heads-up to the turn.

The 7♠ was check-called by Trevidy after Aksu bet another 7,000.

A 2♠ river saw Trevity check, and Aksu move all in. Trevity made a quick fold and went down to around half a starting stack just a few hands into the first level of the day.

Topuz Rebuilds After Rough Start

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Baris Topuz and Itay Kimhi had gathered 9,000 chips in the pot when they both checked the 8♥K♣5♦8♠ turn. From the big blind, Topuz bet 1,300 on the 5♥ river, seeing Kimhi toss in a quick call.

Topuz tabled Q♠Q♦. Kimhi took a final look at his cards before determining they were not good enough to beat Topuz's hand, and he added them to the muck in defeat.

Jurcuta showed second pair with 10♣9♣ before Livshitz turned over J♠8♠ for two pair to win the hand.

Ozdemir First to Fall

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
Kaan Ozdemir
Kaan Ozdemir

Players were already heads up and on the turn looking at a 2♠7♥10♣2♦ board.

Kaan Ozdemir moved all in for his remaining 19,000 on the button and action was on Andrej Tekel, who asked "How much?" before making the call.

Kaan Ozdemir: Q♣Q♥All in
Andrej Tekel: 3♠2♣

Takel was ahead, looking at trip deuces, and Ozdemir couldn't find a way back on the 6♣ river.

Ozdemir was the first to be eliminated from the Main Event Day 1b but used his only rebuy and bought back into the tournament, sitting back with a 30,000 starting stack.

With a completed board of J♥5♠6♣Q♣2♦ in the middle, Casper Von Schantz, under the gun, checked the action over to Oleksandr Novoselskyi in the cutoff.

Novoselskyi added 2,600 to the pot of 5,000, and Von Schantz obliged with a call. Novoselskyi taled K♠J♠ for second pair, but he lost the pot when Von Schantz showed down A♦J♦ for a better kicker.

Nuutinen Gets Two Streets of Value

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Rigu Garcia opened to 300 from the hijack and received calls from Ngoc Nguyen in the small blind and Jorma Nuutinen in the big blind.

All three players checked the 8♥2♠5♦ flop, leading to the 3♦ turn. Nguyen checked, Nuutinen bet 500, Garcia called and Nguyen folded.

Nuutinen fired a second barrel for 1,200 on the 3♥ river, and Garcia called again. Nuutinen tabled an overpair with 9♦9♥, which was enough to take the pot.

The 3♣ turn saw Okumura check, and Muhr bet 1,000. Okumura folded, passing a small pot to Muhr in one of the first hands of the day.
