Avila Chip Leader

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

It is a tale of opposing fortunes for Juan Avila and Jai Patel. Since getting moved Table 2, Patel has been on a downward trajectory, while things are going from strength to strength for tablemate Avila.

Just now Avila added more to his already impressive stack. He had opened the action on the cutoff and Patel three-bet to 15,800. After Avila called, they saw a {k-Spades}{10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop. Patel continued for 15,000 but elected to fold when Avila set him all in.

McGee Eliminated by Skowron

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Paul McGee has busted his first bullet after opening to 9,000 preflop and calling for 24,000 total when Marcel Skowron set him all in.

Marcel Skowron: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Paul McGee: {a-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

McGee was looking for an ace but none could be found on the {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{2-Spades}{3-Clubs} board and he hits the rail.

Yong in the Field

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Christopher Yong has just taken a seat. A regular face on the UK poker scene and with $366,934 in cashes to his name, Yong will certainly be one to watch, even if he only started with a 19 big blind stack.

Patel Bets for Max Value

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

All the cards were out with {8-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{9-Spades}{k-Hearts} on show. Jai Patel was first to act and he moved all in for 50,500, which was a pot-sized bet. Getnet Kassa was the only player in with him and a call would be for his all in. He used a time-bank card to give himself an extra 30 seconds of thinking time before deciding to let his hand go.

Jai Patel turned over {j-Spades}{7-Spades} for a straight flush, to the amusement of his tablemates. When Mark Barlow asked Kassa what he folded, he told him {a-}{k-Spades}.

Assorted Counts

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Mark Barlow has joined the mix. Rungarun Thongnonsung has just doubled up with {a-Spades}{7-Clubs} after getting it in on the turn against two pair and hitting a flush on a {10-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{5-Clubs} board.

Hegedus and Nikolaidi Flip

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Irina Nikolaidi opened to 3,000 in middle position and faced a three-bet all in to 19,400 by Gabor Hegedus. She made the call and the pair were off to the races.

Gabor Hegedus: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Irina Nikolaidi: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}

Nikolaidi failed to connect on the {2-Hearts}{k-Spades}{k-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds} board, giving Hegedus a double. Nikolaidi has still increased her stack since she re-entered though and has around 40 big blinds to play with.
