Boeken Doubles Yaghmai

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Noah Boeken (early position) and Nariman Yaghmai (big blind) got it in on a flop of {8-Hearts}{2-Spades}{9-Spades} for a pot worth 413,000.

Noah Boeken: {A-Spades}{7-Spades}
Nariman Yaghmai: {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

The {J-Hearts} on the turn gave Boeken some additional outs but the {7-Clubs} on the river wasn't one of them. Instead Yaghmai made a straight and doubled.

Dennis Lavrijsen opened under the gun plus one for 22,000 and John Juanda called from the button. Igor Yaroshevskyy called from the big blind.

Alberto Stegeman Eliminated Running Kings Into Aces

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Alberto Stegeman
Alberto Stegeman

Alberto Stegeman was up to over half a million but just now, after a massive set up, he lost all of it to Claas Segebrecht.

Stegeman got his chips in with {K-Hearts}{K-Spades} up against the {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} of Segebrecht.

The flop of {3-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} was of no help for Stegeman and neither were the {2-Clubs} on the turn and {3-Spades} on the river.

Lavrijsen Fires Three Bullets

Martin Kabrhel's card protector

Martin Kabrhel opened for 18,000 from middle position and Dennis Lavrijsen on the button 3-bet to 42,000. The blinds got out of the way and Kabrhel called.

Kabrhel check-called 42,000 on {9-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and another 78,000 on the {2-Spades} turn.

"Dennis, what are you doing? Is this your welcome?" Kabrhel asked, "You want to bust?"

Lavrijsen sat there silently as the {10-Diamonds} hit the river. Kabrhel, with 169,000 behind, checked. Lavrijsen shoved all in.

Kabrhel started talking again, asking Lavrijsen if he had a set of nines. The floor came over and forbid Kabrhel to talk about cards and hands. Several minutes past before John Juanda asked for the clock, but the floor didn't oblige and gave Kabrhel some more time.

Another minute or so later, Michiel Brosky asked for the clock. Now Kabrhel was put on the clock but he folded with 3 seconds left to act.

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Dennis Lavrijsen opened from middle position and Fatih Aydin called in position. From the blinds, Ville Haaristo squeezed all in for about 200,000. Lavrijsen went to battle, Aydin folded.

Haaristo had {A-}{Q-} while Lavrijsen had {A-}{K-}. No help for Haaristo on the flop, turn, or river, and the tournament was down to just 18 players, 2 tables.

Ben Heath Eliminated

Marijn van Puffelen was kind enough to tell us the details of a bust out hand that we missed.

Igor Yaroshevskyy opened under the gun and small blind Ben Heath pushed for about 150,000. Heath got called pretty quickly and found out he was in trouble. Heath had {K-}{Q-} while Yaroshevskyy tabled {A-}{A-}.

An {A-} on the flop just about ended it for Heath. No luck on the turn and river and Heath exited the tournament area. Yaroshevskyy, as far as we can tell, the first player with over a million in chips.

Dietrich Dusts Deinum

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Moritz Dietrich opened under the gun plus one and Foeke Deinuk defended his big blind. Deinum heck-shoved for a little over 100,000 on {Q-}{10-}{4-} with two clubs. Dietrich called with {K-}{Q-} leaving Deinum trailing with his {Q-}{7-}. The turn and river were both nines and Dienum bowed out in 23rd place.
