Kitai Shoves on Wong

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 1,000 ante

Anton Bertilsson and Davidi Kitai raised to 125,000 from the button to scoop early pots. Then Kitai defended his big blind against a raise of Bertilsson for 120,000 and check-folded the {4-Spades} {7-Spades} {10-Spades} flop top a continuation bet of 125,000.

The next hand, the {A-Spades} was exposed and Jonathan Wong raised to 150,000 from the cutoff. Kitai moved all in for 1,120,000 and four minutes passed without decision from the Brit. Kitai called the clock on him and Wong folded within the first 30 seconds.

The board ran out {10-Hearts}{k-Spades}{6-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and a full house for Kyriakides saw Nemeth as the next player to hit the rail.

Kitai Short Again

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 1,000 ante

Davidi Kitai raised to 120,000 from under the gun and Fabio Sperling called in the big blind to see the flop of {9-Spades} {6-Spades} {6-Hearts}. Both players checked and Sperling then bet 175,000 on the {2-Spades} turn. Kitai called and did so as well after the {Q-Hearts} river for 360,000. Sperling showed {9-Diamonds} {8-Spades} and that won the pot.

One hand later, Anton Bertilsson raised to 120,000 and Sperling called in the small blind. There was no action on the {Q-Clubs} {2-Spades} {9-Diamonds} flop and the {2-Hearts} turn, Sperling then avoided a showdown by betting 450,000 on the {6-Spades} river.

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 1,000 ante
Davidi Kitai
Davidi Kitai

Fabio Sperling limped from the small blind and then folded to the all in of Davidi Kitai from one seat over. Exactly one hand later, the action folded to the Belgian and he moved all in again. Remi Castaignon asked the dealer for a count and then made the call, putting Kitai at risk for his last 650,000 chips.

Kitai: {K-Spades} {9-Clubs}
Castaignon: {A-Diamonds} {5-Spades}

The Belgian found no love on the {6-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} flop, but improved on the {9-Diamonds} turn. Castaignon then hit the {A-Clubs} on the river to send the ever-so-dangerous Belgian to the rail in 10th place for €59,970.
