David Salituro

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Heads-up on a flop of 6♠7♠J♥, Roman Cieslik bet 40,000 from the small blind before Grzegorz Derkowski on the button raised to 234,000.

Cieslik flung his arms in the air in frustration as he tanked for several minutes. He eventually slammed his cards down on the table and the dealer pulled them into the muck.

Derkowski showed A♠10♥10♠ as he took the pot.

Leonid Yanovski, Mustafa Biz, and Goran Urumovic are also at this table

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Tomas Novotny started in the middle of the pack but never gained any momentum throughout the day so far, now sitting right next to big stack Martin Kabrhel.

Novotny opened to 15,000 for Tim Grau to defend the big blind and they then checked down to the K♠7♦2♠3♦8♠ river. Grau checked again, Novotny bet 20,000 and received no call to win a small pot.

Benjamin Alacam defended against a raise by Tomasz Kozub and checked the J♠10♣4♠ flop. Kozub bet the pot and Alacam folded with a lot of frustration.

One hand later, table big stack Matthew Macioce raised to 15,000 on the button for Alacam and David Boyaciyan to defend their blinds. It checked to Macioce on the K♥Q♣8♦ flop and his bet worth 20,000 took down the pot uncontested.

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

A commotion arose from the table as Dorel Eldbach moved all in on a board of 6♦2♦9♦Q♦4♥ for around 200,000 from the cutoff. Mats Nylander called in early position.

Eldbach then turned over A♥K♦J♥10♦ for a flush and Nylander shook his head before mucking, returning the chips he had just won.

"Seat two, he don't lose a hand all tournament," a tablemate said about Nylander.
