Spragg Gets Dealt Aces, Busts

Level 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Marle Spragg
Marle Spragg

Marle Spragg busted from the feature table in the previous level. It all started when Bjorn Gravlien raised from early position to 16,000. Spragg was on the button and three-bet to 45,000. Gravlien quickly called and the flop was dealt.

{9-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} was what the deck had in store. Gravlien check-raised Spragg's 35,000 bet to 80,000 and she paid the extra chips to see a turn. The {9-Hearts} slowed the action considerably as both players now checked.

On the {7-Diamonds} river Gravlien retook the initiative by betting 150,000, close to what Spragg had behind. Spragg then raised all-in to 171,000 and Gravlien snap called.

Spragg had {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} for a full house, but was crushed by the {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} of Gravlien.

Death by quads for Spragg, who had to leave the tournament area not too long before the end of Day 2.

Ask and It Is Given Kind of Thing

Level 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Vincent Sanchez was all in against William Wood preflop, with Wood the player at risk.

William Wood: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Vincent Sanchez: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

Wood was well ahead with his pocket kings and looked set to double up. As the flop fell, Sanchez was shouting for his jack. The board came {4-Spades}{4-Hearts}{7-Spades}{j-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Sanchez made his set.

"Nooo!", said a neutral player in shock.

"See, you have to ask the Universe for what you want," said Sanchez, although Wood was already leaving.

Sahota Catches River Bluff to Eliminate Fisz

Level 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Eli Fisz
Eli Fisz

Action was on the river in an already inflated pot. The board was {j-Spades}{7-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}.

Elias Fisz made a huge shove into Dildar Sahota, who thought for a long time while getting his back massaged. Eventually, Sahota made the call.

Fisz showed {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} and Sahota called with {j-Clubs}{10-Hearts} to catch the bluff with his pair of jacks. Fisz was eliminated from the tournament and players congratulated Sahota for his call.

"Put that on the website," said Sahota, who was clearly enjoying the moment.

Level 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Shek Overbets Massively into Aces

Level 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

In a pot of only 62,000 George Shek had led all-in from the small blind for a massive 217,000. The board read {k-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and the bet massively confused his opponent Gaurav Kumar. He was puzzled as he tried to put together what his opponent's holding could be.

Eventually, he shrugged and called, having his questions answered within seconds.

George Shek: {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Gaurav Kumar: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}

The turn {2-Spades} and the river {5-Diamonds} were clean for an elated Kumar, who neared a million chips by winning this pot. Meanwhile, Shek said goodbye to the table and was eliminated shortly before the end of Day 2.
