Arunas Sapitavicius
Arunas Sapitavicius

Arunas Sapitavicius got it in for the last 121,000 and had a flip for his tournament life against the table neighbour.

The Lithuanian was at risk with {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} versus {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} and remained ahead throughout the {10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{k-Spades}{2-Diamonds} board.

Stefan Fabian and Jonas Plaar will be hoping for similar fortune on the same table as they are both short stacked as well.

Hosseinpour Doubles Through Periaux

Level 15 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

On a completed board of {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{j-Hearts}, Victor Periaux bet 75,000 out of the small blind. He then faced the shove by Mehrshad Hosseinpour for 205,000 in the hijack and was immediately sighing before asking for a count.

Eventually, Periaux made the call and Hosseinpour tabled the {a-Clubs}{j-Spades} while Periaux flashed the {k-Clubs} for a second.

Saad End to a Coin Flip

Level 15 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Eli Saad
Eli Saad

Alessio Isaia opened to 17,000 and instantly called the shove by table neighbour Eli Saad for a stack well below the average.

Eli Saad: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Alessio Isaia: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

The {a-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop improved Isaia to the superior pair and the {8-Spades} turn left Saad with just two outs. He missed them on the {k-Hearts} river as Isaia further improved to two pair.

Shafigullin Takes it on the Turn

Level 15 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Four ways to the {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades} turn, the action checked to Marat Shafigullin in the cutoff and he bet 40,000. Killian Desnos folded, as did another player. Mehrshad Hosseinpour also sent his cards into the muck and Shafigullin asked "why not aces this time?" before flashing the {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs} for bottom set.
