Schwaederle Wins Four Way Pot

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

Cedric Schwaederle opened to 20,000 in middle position and gathered calls from Juha Helppi in the cutoff, Joao Vieira on the button and Thierry Labat in the big blind.

Schwaederle managed to shake out both Vieira and Labat with a continuation bet of 20,000 on the 9QQ flop, but Helppi stuck around.

Both players were content with the size of the pot, as they checked down on the 9 turn and 2 river.

Schwaederle flipped over 1010, which was good enough, as Helppi mucked.

Flip Doubles Blanco, Leaves Beneteau on Fumes

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

Lucas Blanco was all in on the button for 253,000, at risk against Jeremie Beneteau in the small blind, who had him covered by around five big blinds.

Lucas Blanco: AQ All in
Jeremie Beneteau: 77

Blanco left Benetau with one direct out after the Q96 flop. The K turn and 3 river did not provide Beneteau with a miracle, and the chips were sent Blanco's way.

Zekhmi Three-Bets Flop

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

Longmao Fan checked from the small blind on the 4KQ flop. Amirouche Zekhmi then bet 20,000, which Fan raised to 60,000.

Zekhmi clicked it back to 110,000, which was enough to force Fan out of the pot and take in the chips.

Binder River Lead Does the Job

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

Hamza Nasir opened to 20,000 from under the gun, which only Bernhard Binder called in the big blind.

Binder check-called another 20,000 on the 2Q4 flop, before the flush-completing A turn checked through.

The K completed the board, and when Binder led out for 60,000, Nasir returned his cards to the dealer.

Dimov Downs Miller's Kings with Rockets

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

On the feature table, Ognyan Dimov opened for 16,000, then Ori Miller kicked it up to 45,000. Dimov four-bet to 95,000, and Miller burned a time bank before jamming for 294,000 total. Dimov wasted no time calling, having Miller covered.

Ori Miller: KK All in
Ognyan Dimov: AA

The board ran out 361054, and hearts were not a factor. Miller took his leave while Dimov took his chips.
