Sorel Mizzi

Just before the break, Sorel Mizzi made his after after a confrontation with Pawel Brzeski.

The Polish player raised and called after Mizzi shoved for a little over 100,000.

Mizzi: {3-Clubs}{3-Spades}

The board ran {8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{q-Spades}{6-Clubs}{a-Spades} to pair Brzeski's ace.

Alvarado Doesn't Fall for Trickett's Tricks

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

We got there with the entire board of {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} already on the table and Trickett checked from the small blind. JC Alvarado thought for quite some time before checking behind from middle position.

Trickett showed {A-Spades}{9-Spades} for the nuts and Alvarado mucked. "Nice check sir!" Trickett laughed.

"Always the Big Blind"

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Anton Astapau moved all in for 50,000 chips from under the gun and was called by Giampaolo Puglia out of the big blind with {J-Hearts} {J-Clubs}. "Always the big blind," sighed Astapau and turned over the cards.

His {A-Clubs} {3-Clubs} picked up a flush draw and gutshot straight draw on the {10-Clubs} {6-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} turn to add further outs. But the {7-Spades} on the river was no good for Belorussian, who also joked to Fedor Holz that he had missed out on the pay jump as well.

Koops Eliminated

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Erik Koops got his short stack in before the flop and found two callers. Those two did some betting on the side on a board of {6-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{A-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and it was Thomas Petit getting some small value with his {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}. Remigiusz Wyrzykiewicz mucked upon seeing the set, Koops turned over his {5-Spades}{6-Clubs} for a rivered two pair and made his exit in 96th place.

Zapatero's Run Continues

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

The impressive run of Javier Gomez Zapatero continues after firing three streets of a {8-} {3-} {K-} {5-} {K-} board against Ismail Kalkan. The German called down all streets including his all in after the river with {K-} {Q-} for top pair that improved to trips. However, the bad news awaited in the pocket threes of Zapatero.

Vladimir Troyanovskiy
Vladimir Troyanovskiy

After a raise to 10,000 and the three-bet of Vladimir Troyanovskiy for 25,000, Robin Ylitalo clicked it up to 45,000 and only the Russian called to see a flop of {7-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs}. Ylitalo moved all in and Troyanovskiy called off for his last 50,000 chips with {2-Clubs} {2-Spades}.

The former EPT London champion turned over his {A-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} and stayed ahead after the {6-Spades} turn and {7-Spades} river.

Dobson Busts in Style

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Ben Dobson
Ben Dobson

Ben Dobson was seen at the payout desk holding a laminated card with "101st" printed across it.

A big smile came across his face when asked about his exit. It wasn't a standard flip or aces getting cracked, it was pure aggression that cost him.

Dobson four-bet to 55,000 and was called by Javier Rodriguez to see a flop of {Q-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}. The Brit moved all in for 146,000 and Rodriguez called with {Q-Hearts} {K-Hearts} to dominate the {8-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} of Dobson.

With the {A-Diamonds} turn further outs emerged as there was now a flush draw as well. However, the {3-Hearts} river was no good and the Brit was done for the day.

The board ran out {2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} and Ladny received a double up.

Zapf Applies Pressure on Kataev

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Manuel Zapf
Manuel Zapf

The action started on Noah Vaillancourt who raised to 11,000 under the gun plus one, and from his immediate left it was Dmitry Kataev who three-bet to 27,000. The next player to act, Manuel Zapf, four-bet to 68,000 from the cutoff and the two big stacks of Sergio Aido and Sam Chartier folded.

Vaillancourt folded too and Kataev made the call.

The flop brought {4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} and Kataev checked to Zapf who bet 60,000. Kataev looked back down at his cards, shook his head and folded his cards.
