Baltazar Gone

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Down to what looked like 65,000 according to the players at the table, Isabel Baltazar shoved from late position with {A-}{7-} and Jean Pierre Supiot called in the big blind with {A-}{K-}. The kicker played a crucial role as Baltazar found no help and headed to the rail.

Big Double for Reil

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Peter Reil
Peter Reil

Abdenbi Abida raised to 8,000 and then called the three-bet to 35,000 by peter Reil to see a heads-up flop of {A-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}. Abida shoved with a draw and reil snap-called with {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} for top set. The {3-Hearts} turn completed the draw for Abida while the {2-Hearts} on the river paired the board and let Reil jump out of his chair to celebrate.

He doubled up for 87,000 and jumped above Abida in the counts.

Custodio Gets Flushed

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Henrique Sobral Custodio
Henrique Sobral Custodio

Just a few minutes ago, Henrique Sobral Custodio had raised to 10,500 and then folded to the big three-bet worth 37,000 by Abdenbi Abida.

Now it was the Portuguese that three-bet shoved for 43,000 with {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} and Abida reluctantly called with {Q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. There was one heart on the flop and one more on both the turn and river to complete the bad beat and bust Custodio.

Rodrigues Runs Into Aces

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Anthony Rodrigues
Anthony Rodrigues

Anthony Rodrigues got his shorter stack in with the {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and picked an unfortunate timing. Joaquin was just waiting for that, holding pocket aces, and despite two clubs on the board there was no help.

Isabel Baltazar had to let go a hand and also dropped into the danger zone again whereas Peter Reil just doubled up for 67,000 with {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}. Abdenbi Abida called with {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} but didn't get there on a board of {K-Hearts}{9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Hearts}.

Perfect Timing for Tadini

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Just when the tables were united again, Anas Tadini flopped magic with pocket jacks on {J-}{7-}{7-}. Table neighbor Zakaria was trying to get tricky with {a-}{K-} and check-raised from 5,000 to 15,000 before jamming into the raise to 35,000 by Tadini. Bad timing by the Spaniard.

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Another table will break momentarily, as LAPT Vina del Mar champion Rodrigo Strong, who was last spotted with around 80,000 chips, as well as Zouhair Faiky have been eliminated. There are just 40 players remaining on five tables.

Boatman Bust by Ben Baba

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
Barny Boatman
Barny Boatman

The action started with a raise to 7,000 by Masbah Ben Baba and Barny Boatman in the small blind as well as Sonny Franco in the big blind called. On the {Q-Clubs}{10-Spades}{4-Spades} flop, Boatman check-raised to 31,000 and solely Ben Baba called after having put in a continuation bet worth 11,000.

On the {9-Clubs} turn, Boatman check-raised all in with pocket fours and Ben Baba looked him up with the {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts} for a turned straight. A blank {K-Spades} river changed nothing whatsoever and the World Series of Poker Bracelet winner was gone.
