Next Scheduled Break

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

Another level has gone and four in total have been played on the final day. Time for a 20-minute break, the T-1,000 chips will be raced off during that time as well.

The last two hands of the level went to [Removed:215]. He first raised to 65,000 and was called by Abdenbi Abida in the small blind only. The duo checked the {K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop and {10-Hearts} turn before Abida check-called 50,000 on the {5-Clubs} river. Groppi showed {K-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and won the pot.

Then, it was Henrique Pinho who made it 65,000 to go and Groppi defended the big blind. On the {7-Spades}{5-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop, Groppi check-called a bet worth 60,000 before neither the {2-Clubs} turn nor the {5-Spades} river triggered any betting action. Groppi's {7-Clubs}{6-Spades} was good enough.

Fahd's Mambo Number Three

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

[Removed:215] limped in and Henrique Pinho checked out of the big blind to see the flop of {Q-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades}. Groppi check-called a bet worth 35,000 before checking again the {6-Clubs} turn. Pinho fired a second bet worth 85,000 and Groppi called before the duo checked the {Q-Diamonds} river.

Groppi showed {A-Clubs}{6-Spades} and that won the pot.

One hand later, Fahd jammed for his last 243,000 and Pinho asked for the count before reshoving the small blind in order to isolate.

Fahd: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}
Pinho: {A-Clubs}{7-Spades}

After a board of {6-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}, Fahd doubled up with a full house and Pinho wasn't happy that he once again failed to deal the final blow to the Moroccan.

Abida and Fahd in Trouble

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

Fahd limped in from the small blind and [Removed:215] checked his option. The duo checked down the {J-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop and {4-Clubs} turn, same applied for the {K-Diamonds} river. Groppi showed {6-Diamonds}{4-Spades} for a pair of fours and Fahd laughed, mucked the {6-Clubs}.

Abdenbi Abida raised to 61,000 from under the gun and Henrique Pinho called in the big blind. On the {J-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop, Pinho bet and Abida mucked the {A-Clubs}. "Jack six suited," the Portuguese said to his table neighbor.

Ninja Style

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

The full bet sizing is unknown, but Henrique Pinho raised from under the gun and then called the shove of Abdenbi Abida for 310,000 to set up a coin flip scenario.

Abida: {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}
Pinho: {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The board fell {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{A-Hearts} and Abida doubled with Anas Tadini's ninja winner sound. Pinho had a small dent in his stack and got most if it back from Fahd just one hand later.

Abida Even Shorter

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

In an already loaded pot with [Removed:215] checking the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades} turn, Abdenbi Abida asked his opponent if he had queen-jack. "Why, do you have jack-ten?" Groppi grinned back and Abida checked behind. The {3-Hearts} river saw Groppi check, Abida then bet 250,000.

After some consideration, Groppi called and Abida mucked to see Groppi take it down with {A-Hearts}{8-Spades}.

One hand later, Groppi limped the small blind and Henrique Pinho raised to 90,000. Groppi then squeezed to hefty 380,000. Pinho eventually mucked and asked "King-queen?", which Groppi denied. "No, I limped with aces," he said and turned over the {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}.

"I know," Pinho smiled.

Abida Gets Shorter

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

Fahd recovered some without any major showdown and then the action was checked to Henrique Pinho in the small blind, who made it 75,000 to go. Abdenbi Abida called in the big blind and then folded the {9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop to a continuation bet of the same size.

Fahd Folds After Six Minutes

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

Henrique Pinho opened to 65,000 from the button and Abdenbi Abida in the small blind as well as Fahd in the big blind called. On the {K-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Spades} flop, Abida checked and Fahd bet 155,000. Pinho glanced over and then announced all in to see Abida quickly fold.

Fahd tanked for six minutes and the {K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} were turned up but just for the Moroccan to see and stare at while trying to make up his mind. Ultimately, Fahd folded and showed his top pair.
