Registration to End Soon

Level 8 : 300/600, 50 ante

There is six minutes left in Level 8 and then players will be going on a 15-minute break. Once that break is over, registration will close. If you're not here yet, you better be on your way!

Bakker Gets Big

Level 8 : 300/600, 50 ante

Robbie Bakker has been trying to get his stack in to re-enter and try to rebuild. Somehow that doesn't seem to be necessary anymore after he doubled up and then knocked out another player. He first defended his big blind with {5-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and flopped the straight on a {6-Clubs}{4-}{3-Clubs} flop.

The Dutchman check-raised and got it in against {8-Clubs}{9-Clubs} to hold up after an eight on the turn and a six on the river. Bakker also flopped a set of tens and an opponent called all the way down with {A-}{10-} to hit the rail.

Darcourt Pays Of Set

Level 8 : 300/600, 50 ante

We saw Guillaume Darcourt in the small blind and he checked a {10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop to check-call 7,800 when the {K-Spades} turn appeared. On the {2-Clubs} river, he checked for a third time in a row and the opponent bet 13,100.

The Frenchman was sent into the think tank and reluctantly tossed in the chips for the call only to muck when shown {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}.

Watts Tortured

Level 8 : 300/600, 50 ante

The last bigger hand, Steven Watts flopped the nut straight with {A-}{Q-} and received no caller. He then defended his big blind with {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and found two pair on the {10-}{6-}{4-} flop. On the {4-} turn he had a full house but the opponent looked him up with pocket tens for the higher full house.

de Korver Cruising

Level 8 : 300/600, 50 ante

Pieter de Korver has been running hot as of lately, though there was barely any bigger pot. One satood out though when he had {Q-}{Q-} and scored a nice add on after a {Q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{2-} board.

Hulyk Sent to the Rail

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante
Darya Hulyk
Darya Hulyk

According to Ben Warrington, Darya Hulyk hasn't really been running good as of lately. She kept losing hands, doubled up a short stack for 7,000 recently. Then, Hulyk found pocket jacks in the small blind and got her remaining 18,000 chips in against the player in the big blinw, who unfortunately had pocket aces.
