Level 15 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

On a 2♣Q♣J♠ flop, Leonidas Georgopoulos bet the pot of 160,000 from the big blind. Samuel Stranak then moved all in for 275,000 in middle position, and Georgopoulos immediately called.

Samuel Stranak: A♠A♦10♥8♠ All in
Leonidas Georgopoulos: A♣9♣3♣2♥

Georgopoulos' flush came in on the 4♣ turn, leaving Stranak drawing dead. The 5♠ river was of no use anymore as Stranak was eliminated in 25th, and the 24 remaining players were redrawn across three tables.

Jacks Good for raketrap

Josh Noy

Level 15 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Tea Yarok checked the 8♦5♥5♠ flop from under the gun, and raketrap fired a bet of 75,000 into the middle from early position. The call was made, and Yarok checked again on the A♦ turn.

After taking a moment to confirm the size of the pot, raketrap checked back and the Q♥ river was flipped over. Both players checked to showdown, with Yarok showing 10♠10♦9♦8♥.

That was no good, as raketrap tabled A♠J♣J♦2♦ for a better two pair to take down the pot.

Goetz made a set on the Q♥ turn and improved to a full house on the 3♥ turn to claim the pot and send Kuo to the exit.
