Wang Holds to Eliminate Tabibzadeh

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Axel Bayout raised to 3,000 in the cutoff, and Seyed Tabibzadeh called in the small blind. Next to act, in the big blind, Yuhan Wang three-bet to 12,000, which both players called.

The dealer spread a JKA flop, which Tabibzadeh seemed to like, as he moved all in for 21,000. Wang called, and Bayout folded.

Seyed Tabibzadeh: QJ All in
Yuhan Wang: A3

Tabibzadeh had a pair and a straight draw, but was unable to improve versus the top pair of Wang, as the 8 turn and 2 river completed the board.

Moragues Turns Chop Into Winner

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Small blind Joan Moragues and Andrej Tekel on the button were heads up on the 910JK turn. With 38,500 in the pot, Moragues checked it over to Tekel. Tekel then bet 22,000, and Moragues called.

After a bit of thought, Moragues checked the 7 river as well. Tekel quickly moved all in, and Moragues snap-called for his stack of 45,500.

Tekel turned over Q8 for a straight, but Moragues had rivered a flush with his Q9 and was awarded a sizable double-up. Tekel, meanwhile, was left with about 15 big blinds.

Anufriiev Tells Makaci Exact Hand

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Franck Makaci
Franck Makaci

Franck Makaci opened to 3,000 in the hijack. Stanislav Anufriiev three-bet to 11,000 once it had folded to him in the big blind, and Makaci obliged with a call.

The pair checked through the 94J flop, prompting Anufriiev to bet 23,000 on the 5 turn. Makaci called before he saw Anufriiev put him all-in for 62,000 on the J river.

"What do you have? King-queen?" Makaci asked Anufriiev as he burned through his time banks.

"Maybe aces," Anufriiev replied.

Makaci eventually called, just before running out of time. Anufriiev tabled AA, and Makaci took his exit as his 1010 was no good.

Bryn Kenney
Bryn Kenney

Markus Bonus raised to 3,000 from middle position, to which Georgios Vrakas responded with a three-bet to 9,000 one seat to his left. Next to act, a short-stacked Bryn Kenney moved all in for 3,500. The action returned to Bonus, who folded.

Bryn Kenney: A10 All in
Georgios Vrakas: JJ

The dealer spread a 37J flop, leaving Kenney requiring running cards to survive.

There was hope on the 8 turn, but the 10 river sealed Kenney's fate, as one of the players at the table remarked that they were happy to see the back of the all-time money list leader.

Danchev Jams in Three-Bet Pot

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Dimitar Danchev raised to 3,500 in the cutoff. It folded to Lucas Blanco in the big blind, who three-bet to 13,500. Danchev called, and did so too when Blanco continued for 15,000 on the 752 flop.

The J turn was then checked by both players, and Blanco checked the 6 river as well. Danchev spent one of his time banks before moving all in for 78,000. Blanco quickly relinquished the pot and mucked his cards.
