Paris Trebles Up

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Having previously been one-outered for a big pot, Bryan Paris shoved for his last 5,600 preflop and was called by Richard Milne and Davidi Kitai. The flop of {J-Hearts}{5-Spades}{K-Hearts} was checked by both players before Kitai bet 6,500 on the {4-Clubs} turn and Milne folded {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}.

Kitai tabled {K-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and Paris showed {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} for a set. The {K-Clubs} river changed nothing and Paris won the pot.

"You're so lucky," joked Jorryt van Hoof alluding to the earlier one-outer.

"Yeah, I run so good," laughed Paris.

His opponent sighed and then turned over {10-Clubs} {10-Spades}, the {6-Spades} on the river was a blank.

Yaxi Zhu was standing on the rail and watching Aaron Lim, thus we decided to catch up with the Chinese lady to find out how she busted. In the very first hand of the day she defended her big blind with {K-Clubs} {9-Clubs} and check-raised all in after a king-high flop only to see her opponent snap call with {A-} {K-}.

Karlic Folds

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Until the {2-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} flop, about 6,000 chips were in the middle and Gerald Karlic faced the all in of a late registrant on Day 2 for 11,400. That was almost half of the stack of Karlic and the Austrian eventually folded. So far it wasn't a good day at the office for Karlic, as he already lost half his stack.
