Pantin Takes from Rypulak

Level 54 : 2,500,000/5,000,000, 50,000 ante

Maria Lampropoulou raised to 12.5M from under the gun with {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and Jacob Mulhern defended the {K-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} in the big blind. On a flop of {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, Mulhern checked and folded to a bet of Lampropoulou.

One hand later, Mateusz Rypulak raised the button with {A-Diamonds}{3-Spades} and Lampropoulou defended the {Q-Diamonds}{4-Spades} in the big blind. The duo checked the {K-Spades}{J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{10-Spades} board and Rypulak claimed the pot with the ace.

Rypulak then made it 12M with the {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and Mulhern called with the {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}, Jeremy Pantin also called with {K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} in the big blind. The flop of {K-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Spades} was checked to Rypulak and he continued for 14M, which triggered a fold by Mulhern and a call by Pantin.

The {9-Diamonds} turn saw both players check and the {8-Clubs} river brought no betting action either and Pantin claimed the pot.

One for Pantin, One for Spinks

Level 54 : 2,500,000/5,000,000, 50,000 ante

Maria Lampropoulou raised to 12M in first position with {A-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, and Jeremy Pantin reraised to 33M in the cutoff with {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}. Lampropoulou considered her options for quite some time but ultimately decided to let it go.

The very next hand Jon Spinks moved all-in from the cutoff with {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, and this time Lampropoulou didn't waste much time before folding {K-Hearts}{9-Hearts} in the big blind.

Mulhern Takes from Golden Chip Competitor

Level 54 : 2,500,000/5,000,000, 50,000 ante

Mateusz Rypulak made it 12M with {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} from the cutoff, and Jacob Mulhern in the very next seat came back over the top for 27.5M with {Q-Spades}{J-Diamonds}. Rypulak made the call.

Rypulak opted for a check on the {7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{2-Hearts}, and back on Mulhern he cut out 27.5M and put it over the line. Rypulak called.

The {K-Clubs} turn prompted another check from Rypulak and the 53M second barrel from Mulhern got the desired fold.

Two for Lampropoulou; One for Mulhern

Level 54 : 2,500,000/5,000,000, 50,000 ante

Maria Lampropoulou raised to 12.5M from the button with the {K-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and that shut down all further action as she claimed the blinds and antes.

The next hand, Lampropoulou made it 12M to go from the cutoff with {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds} and Mateusz Rypulak defended the {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts} in the big blind. The flop fell {Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} and Rypulak checked, Lampropoulou bet 9M and claimed the pot.

Jon Spinks then got involved and raised the button to 10M with {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. Jacob Mulhern defended with the {A-Hearts}{2-Clubs} and the duo checked the {A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flop. On the {5-Spades} turn, Mulhern checked and Spinks called a bet worth 8.5M before the {A-Spades} river paired the board for the second time and Mulhern checked, Spinks checked behind and Mulhern won the last hand of the level.

Keeping the Pots Small

Level 55 : 3,000,000/6,000,000, 600,000 ante

The play has so far been very quiet after the break with only one hand making the river. In that hand, Jon Spinks called the preflop raise of Maria Lampropoulou and they checked it through to the river. Lampropoulou went for a value bet with second pair, but Spinks weren't falling for it and preserved his stack by folding the smaller pair

The Kicker Plays in Big Pot Between Pantin and Lampropoulou

Level 55 : 3,000,000/6,000,000, 600,000 ante

Jeremy Pantin raised to 14M first to act with the {A-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and Maria Lampropoulou called out of the big blind with {A-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. The flop of {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{4-Hearts} gave both players trips and Lampropoulou checked. Pantin continued for 10M and Lampropoulou called to see the {5-Hearts} on the turn.

Lampropoulou checked and Pantin fired a second barrel worth 25M, and Lampropoulou called again. The {3-Spades} on the river saw Lampropoulou take her time and check, before Pantin made it 30M to go. Lampropoulou ultimately called and lost by a minor kicker difference
