Sipilä Eliminated by Alioto

Christian Zetzsche

Level 5 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Dario Alioto min-raised before the blinds went up and was called by Roman Verenko as well as Samuli Sipilä. Thiago Silva De Morgado then potted to 8,800 out of the small blind and all three came along.

The A♥K♥5♦ flop was checked to Sipilä, who bet 12,000. Only Alioto called and faced a pot-sized bet onthe 9♦ turn. Alioto jammed for 82,100 and Sipilä called.

Samuli Sipilä: A♦K♦10♥3♠
Dario Alioto: Q♥Q♦8♥2♠

Alioto needed another heart and received just that with the 6♥ river. The stacks were counted and Sipilä was covered.

Yu Doubles Through Sadovyi

Christian Zetzsche

Level 5 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Oleksandr Sadovyi potted to 16,400 preflop for Beiyan Yu and Han Kuo to call.

After the 9♠8♣6♦ flop, Yu got it in for the 73,300 he had behind and Kuo got out of the way while Sadovyi eventually called.

Yu rolled over the A♦10♥7♥7♠ for the current nut straight and Maximilian Schaper chimed in "and you got jack-ten?!" while looking over to Sadovyi.

Sadovyi tabled the 8♦8♠6♥5♦ for a set and Schaper was instantly confused.

The 4♣ turn and J♥ river changed nothing anymore as Yu doubled.

"You call with that shit?" Sadovyi grinned and Romain Nattaf added "you potted with that shit?"

Sadovyi just smiled and concluded "it is my favourite hand".

Casagrande No More

Christian Zetzsche

Level 5 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Harry Casagrande was all-in and at risk with the A♣K♣9♠3♦ on the 9♥8♦3♣8♣ turn and Oliver Bolwerk looked him up with the A♥A♠J♥10♦.

The 6♠ river was a blank to send Casagrande to the rail.

Marjanovic Gets Shorter

Christian Zetzsche

Level 5 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Sebastian Juhlen raised the pot on the A♠9♥8♣ flop for Adem Marjanovic to call. The Q♣ came on the turn and Juhlen eyeballed the stack of his table neighbour before pushing all-in, forcing an instant fold from the Austrian.

Silva De Morgado Doubles Through Palatzky

Christian Zetzsche

Level 5 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

On a completed board of 8♠7♣4♣3♣A♦, Marc Palatzky bet 20,000 and Thiago Silva De Morgado then pushed all-in for slightly more than two times of that.

Palatzky sigh-called and was shown the A♣J♣10♠6♦ for the ace-high flush, to which he was gonna muck the cards. The dealer reminded him that all-in showdowns have to reveal the cards and Palatzky showed K♣10♦9♣8♣ for the king-high flush.

Harry Casagrande was confused and inquired if the showdown rule was new or not.

Nattaf Leads the Way For Now

Christian Zetzsche

Level 5 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

"Why did you not call the sixteen and pot?" Romain Nattaf asked Oleksandr Sadovyi. The former chip leader ended up second-best to Nattaf's J♦9♥7♥2x on the 9♦8♠8♣9♠7♦ river and that caused some banter back and forth.

Sadovyi had an eight and mucked, exclaiming several times how lucky Nattaf was. The next pot also went to Nattaf when he potted preflop and on the J♥6♥6♣ flop, forcing out Sadovyi and Beiyan Yu. That left Sadovyi with a handful of blinds and they vanished soon after.
