Borlan Busts to Kolgu

Level 6 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Mehmet Kolgu
Mehmet Kolgu

Dan-Serban Borlan three-bet jammed into a limp and a raise by Mehmet Kolgu and the latter made the call for what appeared to be more than 60,000.

Dan-Serban Borlan: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Mehmet Kolgu: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

The {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{7-Hearts} flop gave Kolgu middle set and he locked up the knockout with the {q-Hearts} turn, making the {4-Diamonds} river a formality.

Akiki Falls to a Short Stack

Level 6 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

With some 60,000 in the middle and the turn showing {k-Spades}{9-Clubs}{7-Spades}{7-Diamonds} turn, Nikolay Fal moved all-in for 50,300. Gabriel Akiki was in the tank and made the call eventually.

Nikolay Fal: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Gabriel Akiki: {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

The {9-Hearts} river changed nothing anymore and Fal doubled, while former big stack Akiki was left with pocket change.

Kurtulus Chips Up

Level 6 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Having defended out of the blinds, Bora Kurtulus check-called two bets on the {a-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop and {7-Diamonds} turn. The {4-Spades} river was checked by Kurtulus and his opponent checked back. Kurtulus tabled the {7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} for a straight and his opponent mucked.

That pot further boosted the stack of Kurtulus, who is well above the current average in level six.

Chisu Eliminated by Korkmaz

Level 6 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

The dealer announced a seat open and Danut Chisu was the unfortunate player concerned. His cards were already in the muck as Koray Korkmaz dragged in the very healthy pot. On a board of {k-Spades}{q-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Spades}{k-Diamonds}, Korkmaz's {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} had made fours full of kings and Chisu mentioned that he held the nut flush before leaving the tournament area.

Nuri Hadioglu: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}
Abol Ehghaghi: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

The board ran out {j-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} and Hadioglu doubled. Ehghaghi was left with very few chips and in the big blind next.
