Cimbolas Avoids Elimination

Level 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Holding A♣K♠, Manuel Ferrari raised to 200,000 from under the gun, and Matas Cimbolas defended his big blind with K♣J♥.

Cimbolas opted to check-raise on the K♦4♣4♠ flop, making it 400,000 with his top pair, after Ferrari had continued for 125,000, and Ferrari called. The 9♦ turn slowed Cimbolas down, as he reverted to checking. Ferrari responded with a bet of 350,000, which Cimbolas called.

The 3♦ completed the board, and Cimbolas checked a third time. Ferrari emptied the clip, moving all-in, having Cimbolas' 1,730,000 stack well covered.

Cimbolas utilised three time extensions, while looking to gain any read he could from Ferrari. As the clock ticked down, he made the correct decision and folded, seeing the chip leader pull even further ahead of the field.

Vasyl Pidhrusnyi was in the cutoff when he jammed all in for 825,000. Xiaosheng Zheng looked him up from the small blind.

Vasyl Pidhrusnyi: A♠2♣ All in

Manuel Ferrari made it 200,000 in the cutoff. Xiaosheng Zheng defended his big blind and check-called when Ferrari bet 175,000 on the 7♥6♦9♥ flop.

The duo then checked through the 5♦ turn, seeing the 6♥ river complete the board. Zheng checked a third time, but Ferrari re-engaged with a big bet of 750,000.

Zheng tossed in a quick call. Ferrari showed 8♠8♥ for a straight, besting the 6♠4♠ of Zheng, who had rivered trips.

The stream joined the action with Lukas van Eeden all-in for 1,675,000 from the small blind and at risk against Jose Criado on the button.

Lukas van Eeden: A♥A♣ All in
Jose Criado: Q♠Q♥

The 4♠2♥J♥2♣6♣ runout brought no danger whatsoever to Van Eeden's pocket aces, providing him a double-up early on Day 6.

Xiaosheng Zheng raised to 200,000 under the gun, holding K♦7♣. Barbara Akemi flat-called as next to act with 9♠9♦, and Michael Dwyer defended 7♥5♣ in the big blind.

It folded to Akemi on the J♠9♣Q♦ flop. She bet 200,000, which only Zheng called. Akemi sized up to 475,000 on the 2♥ turn. Zheng check-folded this time, shipping the pot to Akemi.

During the hand, chip leader Manuel Ferrari sprinted into the venue, arriving a few minutes late for the penultimate day of the EPT Barcelona Main Event.

Cimbolas Takes an Easy Pot

Matas Cimbolas raised to 200,000 on the button with Q♠5♦, and Vasyl Pidhrusnyi defended his big blind with Q♣7♣.

One bet was all it took for Cimbolas, as his continuation-bet of 125,000 on the 2♦3♠10♣ flop was enough to see Pidhrusnyi check-fold.

At the very start of the day, Toni Kaukua shipped in his 650,000 from the cutoff. It folded to Nicolas Chouity in the big blind, who swiftly called.

Toni Kaukua: K♦9♠ All in
Nicolas Chouity: A♠J♦

Chouity flopped two pair on A♦8♥J♥, leaving Kaukua in dire straits. The 2♦ turn dashed any hopes for running outs, and Kaukua said his goodbyes as the meaningless 9♦ river completed the board.

More than 87% of the time, anyone who enters a $5 buy-in Spin & Go tournament online at PokerStars will be playing for a prize pool of either double or three times their buy-in. However, a recent $5 Spin & Go was special because the 240,000x jackpot multiplier was triggered, meaning the trio of entrants was playing for a gargantuan $1.2 million prize pool. The chances of that happening? 0.10 in a million!

PokerStars Spin & Go tournaments are a winner-takes-all when the prize pool multiplier is between 2x and 5x. The top two finishers win a slice of the pie when a 10x is hit, with anything 25x or larger paying out all three entrants.

When "KuCoH" of Belarus, Brazil's "malakaio300," and Denmark's "dillerfar19" bought into a $5 Spin & Go, the prize pool selector stopped on the ultra-rare 240,000x!
