Richard Hayes

Level 11 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Dziugas Petraitis opened to 16,000 from the button, and received a call from Carlo Solazzo in the small blind, before Mats Nordberg three-bet jammed for 67,000 from the big blind.

Both of his opponents called, and proceeded to check down the K♦J♥3♦Q♥6♦ runout.

Nordberg tabled A♠Q♠ for second pair queens, and that was good versus Solazzo's 9♠9♥ and Petraitis' A♣4♣.

Knut Gronli was all-in for around 45,000 and at risk against Thomas Jakobsen.

Knut Gronli: 5♦5♠ All in
Thomas Jakobsen: A♣9♦

It was off to the races, and the ace was in the window on the A♦7♥6♥2♥10♣ runout to send Gronli to the rail.

Level 10 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Lan Ly was all-in and competing for a main pot of 85,000, while 80,000 was in the side pot between active players Loukas Kioutsoukis and Joseph Bartlett.

The board read 8♦7♥6♦2♦9♠, and Kioutsoukis fired out a bet of 130,000, forcing a fold from Bartlett.

Kioutsoukis tabled A♦10♦ for the nuts, and Ly revealed K♠J♣ as she wished the table good luck.

Level 10 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Tournament Room - Malta Poker Festival, Portomaso

Chen Keren moved all in for 67,000 from middle position, before Daxwaz Acar rejammed for around 120,000 from the button. Both players were dismayed when Mehran Vahman snap-called in the big blind.

Chen Keren: 8♦8♥ All in
Daxwaz Acar: J♠J♣ All in
Mehran Vahman: A♠K♦

Acar will have been happy enough with the scenario, but the K♣10♣7♥ flop put Vahman in front, a lead he did not relinquish on the 3♣ turn or 5♠ river.

Level 10 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Emma Woolfrey opened to 13,000 from early position, and received a call from Angela Rogan, before Fabio Giamberardini three-bet jammed from the small blind for 70,000. Woolfrey rejammed, and Rogan got out of the way.

Fabio Giamberardini: A♠8♥ All in
Emma Woolfrey: J♦J♥

Giamberardini was in trouble with a solitary overcard, and he found insufficient help on the 10♥9♣8♦6♥2♠ runout.
