Aido a Millionaire This Time

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

In the very last hand before the break, Remigiusz Wyrzykiewicz and Sergio Aido tangled in a pot and the Spaniard bet the {Q-Hearts} {7-Spades} {A-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} turn when the action was checked to him. Wyrzykiewicz wasn't willing to invest 100,000 and mucked his cards to make Aido a Millionaire.

Lundgren Doubles at the Feature Table

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

In the last hand before the break, Fedor Holz opened with a raise from the cutoff and Bjorn Lundgren three-bet jammed for 160,000. Action folded back to Holz, who made a quick call.

Holz: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Lundgren: {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

It was a flip, and Lundgren pulled out to a commanding lead on the {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop. Neither the {8-Spades} turn nor {4-Spades} river helped Holz, and he shipped the double to Lundgren.

Three Double Ups

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Sergio Aido min-raised and picked up two callers before Marius Pospiech moved all in for 140,000 with pocket nines. Bart Kuiper was the first player to call the initial raise and also called the shove of the German with {A-} {Q-}, but failed to improve.

Fast Forward one minute, Noah Vaillancourt opened to 27,000 and Manuel Zapf three-bet to 63,000 before calling all in for effectively 341,000 when Vaillancourt had shoved. Zapf's {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} spiked a set on the {Q-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} flop but Vaillancourt's {5-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} picked up a straight draw with the {8-Hearts} turn. The {7-Clubs} river was safe for Zapf and he doubled.

In the last hand, Diogo Xavier Veiga moved all in for what looked like 160,000 and Koray Aldemir called with {9-Clubs} {9-Spades}. Veiga had a flip for his tournament life with {K-Hearts} {J-Hearts} and got there on the {J-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {2-Spades} board.

Voth Can't Recover Enough

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Ronny Voth
Ronny Voth

Sergio Aido lost a big pot to Rony Voth earlier but had the last laugh by busting the German player.

Voth had recovered to 110,000 but that was still very short. He woke up with {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades} in early position and in they went. Aido looked down at {k-Clubs}{k-Spades} in the big blind and wasted no time in calling.

The board ran {j-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{10-Hearts}{4-Clubs}.

Voth Fears the Flush and Still Calls

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Ronny Voth defended his big blind against a raise by Sergio Aido and then check-called two streets before the board was laying complete with {6-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} {8-Spades}. Voth checked again and Aido moved all in for his last 183,000. The German tanked for minutes and eventually called to muck his cards once he was shown the {8-Hearts} {9-Hearts} of Aido.

The dealer first shipped over the chips and then flipped over Voth's inferior {7-Spades} {8-Diamonds} that were laying on top of the muck.

Ensan Takes it Down

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Hossein Ensan opened to 24,000 and was called by Carlo Citrone in the small blind before Andrey Shatilov three-bet to 85,000 out of the big blind. Both Ensan and Citrone called and saw a three-way flop of ]9c] {3-Clubs} {4-Clubs}. The action was checked to Ensan and his bet of 110,000 won the pot without further action.
