Mateos Eliminated by Rudolph
Mateos Eliminated by Rudolph

Adrian Mateos opted to raise for all but his last 12,500 chips while in the cutoff. He was called by Christian Rudolph on the button as hand-for-hand play had just commenced. The flop brought {k-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs} and Mateos got the last of it in the middle, Rudolph instantly called.

Adrian Mateos: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Christian Rudolph: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}

The {2-Spades} turn made sure that the kicker would play and the {7-Diamonds} river ended Mateos' run in 10th place.

Mikita Badziakouski: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

Christian Rudolph raised to 44,000 and Mike Watson called on the button. Thomas Muehloecker then jammed for 472,611 out of the small blind and Rudolph let go. Watson gave it some consideration and made the call.

Thomas Muehloecker: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Mike Watson: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

The {q-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Spades} flop gave Muehloecker the nut flush draw on top and the {10-Hearts} turn provided an additional gutshot. However, it was a case of "too many outs" as the {8-Clubs} river bricked off to eliminate Muehloecker on the bubble.

Two Doubles and More for Filatov

Level 24 : 10,000/20,000, 2,500 ante
Petrangelo vs Dzivielevski
Petrangelo vs Dzivielevski

In a limped blind battle, Anatoly Filatov min-bet the {j-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} flop and then bet the {5-Diamonds} turn for 56,000, both of which David Peters called. Filatov also bet the {7-Clubs} river for 128,000 and Peters called with {10-Spades}{7-Diamonds} to get shown {2-Spades}{2-Clubs} for bottom set.

On the other table, Bert Stevens three-bet jammed into Yuri Dzivielevski, who had raised from under the gun and made the call.

Bert Stevens: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Yuri Dzivielevski: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}

The {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds} board provided both overcards.

Right after the blinds went up and Nick Petrangelo jammed the button, Dzivielevski called out of the big blind.

Yuri Dzivielevski: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}
Nick Petrangelo: {5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}

Petrangelo improved on the {4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop but the {5-Clubs} turn gave the Brazilian a flush. Petrangelo had plenty of outs, neither of which came on the {10-Hearts} river.
