Holz Over 500K After Felting Badziakowski

Level 13 : 2,500/5,000, 600 ante

Fedor Holz opened for 10,500 from the hijack and Mikita Badziakouski defended from the big blind.

Badziakouski check-called a bet of 17,500 on the {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop and check-called a bigger bet of 50,000 on the {5-Clubs} turn. The {9-Clubs} river completed the board and Badziakouski checked again. Holz jammed and after using some of his time bank, Badziakouski called off for 147,661.

Holz turned over {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for the nuts and won the hand to soar over 500K in chips after taking all of Badziakouski's chips who held {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds}.

Set of Snowmen for Daniels

Michael Addamo opened for 8,000 from under the gun before he called a jam to 75,563 by Shawn Daniels from the cutoff.

Shawn Daniels: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Michael Addamo: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Addamo was favored and even more so after the {10-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} flop and the {5-Diamonds} turn. However, the {8-Clubs} came raining down on the river to give Daniels a set and a double-up.

Rudolph Takes Another Off Mattsson

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Rudolph opened from the hijack and was called by Mattsson in the small blind and Rui Ferreira in the big blind.

Mattsson fired out for 7,475 on the {7-Hearts}{2-Spades}{k-Clubs} flop and got a call. Rudolph then called a bet of 16,801 on the {j-Clubs} turn. The {4-Diamonds} river completed the board and Mattsson tanked before he bet 45,298 leaving just 500 chips behind. Rudolph made the call and won the hand with {a-Hearts}{k-Spades} to Mattsson's {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}.

Although Mattsson was left with just 500 chips after the hand, he managed to win two hands in a row to get this instantly back up to 15,000 in chips.
