Tooloulous Cracks Aces Then Exits

Level 15 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Marius Tooloulous was all-in for 500 preflop after damage from a previous hand. Ian Gascoigne on the button bet 8,500 and was met with a raise from Salikaev for 28,500.

Gascoigne folded which gave Salikaev the sidepot leaving 7,000 to be played for the main pot.

Marius Tooloulous: {9-Clubs}{4-Spades}
Yury Salikaev: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

Tooloulous hit a full house on a board of {k-Clubs}{9-Spades}{10-Spades}{4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} to give the Cypriot hope.

Two hands later Tooloulous was all in for 7,000 from early position and the only customer was Salikaev in the cutoff

Marius Tooloulous: {5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Yury Salikaev: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

There was no help for Tooloulous this time as the board came {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{6-Hearts} and headed to the exit.

Kilic Sucks Out On Aces

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

With action three-ways on a flop of {j-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}, the big blind checked. The under-the-gun player then moved all in for 33,500 chips into a pot of at least 30,000. Nazim Kilic responded by putting a chunk of blue 5,000 stacks in the middle to fold out the big blind and cards were ont their backs.

Opponent: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}
Nazim Kilic: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

Although he covered his opponent, Kilic was well behind. The {8-Clubs} turn didn't help him, however, Kilic spiked the two outter {j-Hearts} on the river to send his short stacked opponent to the rail.

Brechalov Opening Up Gap On The Field

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Iurii Brechalov caught fire recently, returning from the break and almost doubling his already big stack. In the latest hand he had raised from the cutoff to 6,000 chips and got a call from Anatoly Nikitin in the big blind.

The flop came down {q-Spades}{9-Spades}{4-Clubs} and Brechalov bet 6,000 like his name was Rob Salaburu. Nikitin made the call.

They saw a {10-Hearts} turn and once again, Brechalov bet very quickly, this time to 18,000. Nikitin didn't waste much time mucking his holding, awarding another pot the Russian's way.

The amount of players making Day 2 will be announced shortly.

Kuscu Coolers Opponent

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

With action on Hakan Kuscu, after the cutoff opened to 7,000, he flat called on the button and action went heads-up to a flop.

The {a-Spades}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs} board was continued on by the preflop aggressor for 5,000. Kuscu responded by raising all in for his last 35,000 and the opponent called.

Hakan Kuscu: {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

Kuscu was at risk but he had his opponent in terrible shape, with a set again the aces up of the cutoff.

The turn and river ran out {2-Clubs} and {j-Clubs}, respectively, to give Kuscu a much needed double.
