Carmen-Elina Vist
Carmen-Elina Vist

With about 40,000 in the middle, Audrius Navickas, OlyBet Team Pro Carmen-Elina Vist, and a third player all checked the {9-Spades}{a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{10-Spades} board.

Navickas led out for 11,000 after the {j-Diamonds} completed the board on the river. Vist looked troubled before she made the call.

After the third player folded Navickas turned over {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for two pair. Vist then promptly turned over {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades} for a better two pair and scooped the pot.

Three Women Remain After Johnsen Eliminated

Venue

Agnetha Johnsen was one of the recent eliminations leaving just OlyBet Team Pro Carmen-Elina Vist, Malta's Jacqueline "Poker Mama" Cachia. and birthday girl Anne Meri as the last three remaining women in the field.

Johnsen opened for 8,000 and was called in position by her opponent. Johnsen checked the {5-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{2-} flop and her opponent jammed more than covering the approximately 52,000 remaining in Johnsen's stack.

Johnsen made the call and turned over {k-Clubs}{4-Clubs} for a flush draw. Her opponent, who after the hand she described as a table bully to PokerNews, held {a-}{k-}.

Neither a four or a club came on the turn or river and Johnsen was out of the tournament.

"I knew my opponent didn't have a five or a two," shared Johnsen after the hand. "It is time to relax and go shopping for an hour."

Good News for OlyBet Team Pros Aasmaa and Meless

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Raigo Aasmaa
Raigo Aasmaa

Three of the four OlyBet Team Pros have been hanging tough and remain in the field with just 62 players remaining.

Raigo Aasmaa just got a double up when he got it all in with {a-Spades}{9-Spades} and held strong against his opponent's {k-Spades}{q-Spades} to get his stack up to 85,000.

Meanwhile, Dmitrijs Meless got a bit lucky. A player opened for 9,000 before another player jammed for 40,000. Meless four-bet jammed for 90,000 and the original raiser folded {a-Spades}{10-Spades} face-up.

Meless held {8-}{8-} and got lucky when the {8-} appeared on his turn to suck out on his opponent's {q-}{q-} and send him to the rail.

Meelis Vist
Meelis Vist

We were keeping our eyes on the short stack of Estonia's Meelis Vist, who is seen playing at just about every poker festival in Tallinn. As soon as our eyes were somewhere else he doubled up twice.

Vist shared his second double up came when raised with {q-}{10-} and then bet and got called on all three streets including a jam on the river on a {10-}{10-}{2-}{7-}{3-} board.

Meless Ousts Tuomi

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Dmitrijs Meless
Dmitrijs Meless

Antti Tapani Tuomi jammed from under the gun for four big blinds. It folded around to the small blind and Tuomi called the clock on him after 10 seconds. The floor came and took no action after being informed about the situation.

The player in the small blind folded before OlyBet Team Pro Dmitrijs Meless called without looking at his cards from the big blind.

Antti Tapani Tuomi: {a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Dmitrijs Meless: {8-Spades}{3-Diamonds}

It was looking good for Tuomi to double. The {k-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Diamonds} was a safe one for him. The {7-Diamonds} on the river also didn't matter towards the outcome of the hand. However, the {3-Clubs} spiked the river to give Meless a pair and Tuomi was eliminated from the tournament in 70th place.

Kokk Coolers Juhola

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Janar Kokk
Janar Kokk

It's been quite the day for Janar Kokk and he has chipped up 416,000 and has emerged as one of the chip leaders.

In a recent hand, a player under the gun min-raised to 6,000. The player seated next to him called before Kokk called from the hijack. Jari-Pekka Juhola completed the action from the big blind and the flop came {q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{9-Hearts}.

Three players checked before Kokk bet 6,000. Juhola raised to 22,000 and two players folded. Kokk tanked for two minutes before he made the call.

Juhola then jammed for about 40,000 after the {8-Diamonds} came on the turn. Kokk snap-called and turned over {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for the nut flush. The table made a little noise after Juhola showed he had {k-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for the second-nut flush.

Juhola was drawing dead and was officially eliminated after the {10-Diamonds} completed the board on the river.

Mortensen Doubles Against Gustafsson Set Over Set

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Morten Mortensen
Morten Mortensen

Sick cooler for Robert Gustafsson and a big win for Morten Mortensen. Gustafsson jammed effectively covering the 155,000 left in Mortensen's stack with about 100,000 in the pot already and the board reading {3-Clubs}{10-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}.

Mortensen snap-called and immediately turned over {q-Spades}{q-Hearts} for top set. Gustafsson also had a set with {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} but was in a world of hurt with him now drawing to just two outs.

The {3-Clubs} completed the board on the river and Mortensen got a huge double up.
