Dinner Break (full)

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Players are now on a 75-minute dinner break. When they return they will continue hand-for-hand play until the bubble is burst.

Dan Smith Eliminated in 15th Place

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Dan Smith
Dan Smith

Action folded to Dan Smith on the bubble and the American grinder shoved his last 43,000 in. Ramin Hajiyev in the big blind made the call.

Ramin Hajiyev: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}
Dan Smith: {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}

The flop was full of blanks with {6-Spades}{4-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, but the {Q-Diamonds} on the turn did make a difference. The {K-Hearts} on the river didn't, and Smith left in 15th place.

With just 14 players remaining, the tournament is now on the bubble. Hand for hand is now in progress.

Dan SmithBubbled again.

"It'd Be so Much Easier if I Had a Heart"

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Piotr Franczak opened for 12,000 from early position and Sam Greenwood put his big stack to use by three-betting to 27,000 from the small blind. Franczak made the call and then bet 15,000 after Greenwood checked the {6-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop. Greenwood made the call and then checked for a second time on the {3-Clubs} turn.

Franczak proceeded to move all in for his last 85,000 and Greenwood hit the tank.

"It'd be so much easier if I had a heart," Greenwood said. He folded moments later. "I like you. I want you to cash."

Hajiyev's Not Folding

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Ramin Hajiyev opened for 12,000 from middle position and Connor Drinan in the cutoff three bet to 28,500. Action folded to Hajiyev, and he called.

Ramin Hajiyev check called a bet of 24,000 on {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and check called another 42,000 when the {4-Clubs} appeared on the turn.

The river came the {K-Spades} and Hajiyev checked a third time. Drinan thought about it for just a bit, before checking behind.

Hajiyev tabled {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} and Drinan mucked.

Hajiyev had won the hand before as well when he raised Martin Finger on the river in a big pot and the German folded after tanking for quite some time on {7-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}.

Double Up For Franczak

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Philipp Gruissem just faced a shove worth 66,500 from Piotr Franczak who had moved over the top of his re-raise to 22,500.

Gruissem eventually called and the showdown went as following.

Gruissem: {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Franczak: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}

The board ran out {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{9-Clubs} and Franczak doubled up.

Smith Stays

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Dan Smith

In one of the last hands of level 15 (2,500/5,000 with 500 ante) Agshin Rasulov opened for 12,000 from middle position. Dan Smith in the big blind was the sole caller.

The flop came {3-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} and Smith check called a bet of 12,000.

Both players checked the {J-Spades} on the turn, and the dealer placed the {9-Spades} on the table to complete the board.

Smith bet out 13,000 with 72,500 behind. After just a little bit of thinking, Rasulov raised to 31,000.

Smith tanked for quite some time before eventually releasing his cards into the muck.

Petrangelo Finishes Off Haxton

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Nick Petrangelo opened with a standard raise from late position and a short-stacked Isaac Haxton defended from the big blind. When the flop came down {9-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{k-Spades}, Haxton checked and Petrangelo put out a bet. Haxton then check-raised all in for not much more, and Petrangelo called.

Petrangelo: {k-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Haxton: {9-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Haxton had flopped middle pair, but it was no good as Petrangelo held top pair. The {5-Spades} turn missed the Team Online pro, and so did the {Q-Hearts}. With that, Haxton took his leave from the tournament.
