Michael Hits Quads to Survive

Kai Cocklin

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Angelos Michael opened from the hijack to 40,000 and Simone Andrian three-bet from the button to 100,000. Once the blinds folded, Michael shoved for 375,000, and Andrian quickly called.

Angelos Michael: 6♦6♥ All in
Simone Andrian: 10♦10♠

It looked to be the end of the road for Michael, but he hit a set on the 6♣5♣A♥ flop to surge into the lead. Andrian needed to find a ten but the 2♠ turn was a complete brick, and the 6♠ river improved Michael to quads just for good measure.

Bulut Celik shoved from under the gun for 120,000 and Fahredin Mustafov called in the hijack.

Bulut Celik: A♥9♣ All in
Fahredin Mustafov: 8♥8♠

Celik needed to win a flip to stay alive, but didn't manage to do it as the J♣6♦4♦10♦3♥ runout kept the Snowmen of Mustafov in the lead, which melt Celik's chances of a cash.

Simone Andrian from early position and Nemo Koering from the small blind ended up getting their stacks into the middle preflop with the latter at risk for around 400,000.

Nemo Koering: A♣K♥ All in
Simone Andrian: J♠J♣

It was a crucial flip for both players as Andrian would only have around 100,000 behind should he lose. However, the board was kind to him as the 3♠Q♥2♣8♦4♥ runout kept his pocket jacks in the lead, which sent Koering to the rail.

Lachezar Petkov shoved from under the gun for around 100,000 and Adrian State reshoved from the next seat for 270,000.

Lachezar Petkov: A♠A♣ All in
Adrian State: Q♣Q♦

State certainly didn't expect see aces from the short-stacked Petkov, who was in a dream spot to double up. The runout of 3♦10♥3♣10♠A♥ brought no surprised, and Petkov doubled up.

The action folded around to Traian Stanciu in the small blind who shoved his big stack into the middle. Traian Stanciu was in the big blind with around 120,000, and decided to put himself at risk.

Traian Stanciu: 10♠9♥ All in
Razvan Belea: K♦4♣

Stanciu had made the right call, but would have hated to see the 4♠9♠6♠ flop as Belea made a pair plus picked up a flush draw. It was all over by the time the 3♠ hit the turn, and the 4♦ river was just a formality.
