“Hard Luck”

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

David Milea, who qualified through a live satellite, had just lost a fair chunk of change with third-nut flush to second-nut flush and now he moved all in on a flop of {9-Spades}{5-Hearts}{6-Hearts}.

Nathan Smith was the player with the decision to make and he shruged his shoulder and called while turning over his {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts} top pair with a flush draw. Milea tabled {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds} and was looking for a bit of luck.

The turn was the {k-Hearts} and the river the {3-Clubs}.

The wrong colour king on the turn for Milea as it gave Smith the nut flush to bust him.

“Hard Luck,” the other players told the popular local player as he prepared to leave after a long day at the felt.

Sean McCarthy Puts Audrius Pilypaitis To the Test

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Audrius Pilypaitis was facing off against Sean McCarthy on the turn of a board reading {7-Spades}{k-Spades}{j-Spades}{7-Hearts}

There was just over 30,000 in the pot and action was on small blind McCarthy who moved all in for 34,000.

Pilypaitis hated it and had his head in his hands as he squirmed in his seat. Several curse words came from his mouth before the word which really counted and it was an unhappy, “Fold.”

Cahill Happy to Get a Fold From Celikovsky

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Peter Cahill
Peter Cahill

Czech Republic's Viktor Celikovsky is either in the chip lead or very close to it. However, his stack just took a minor dent in a hand involving Ireland's Peter Cahill and Adrian McCann.

Celikovsky opened to 2,600 from the cutoff and got calls from both McCann in the small blind and Cahill in the big blind.

Both McCann and Cahill checked the {5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{j-Spades} flop before Celikovsky fired out a continuation bet for 3,200. McCann thought for a minute before he folded before Cahill, who is on his second bullet of the day, snap fired out a raise to 8,500. Celikovsky called almost as quickly as Cahill bet.

Cahill opened up with a bet of 11,500 when the {a-Clubs} appeared on the turn. Celikovsky folded and Cahill smiled and said, "Yay, gotcha to fold."

After the hand, Celikovsky was still in good shape with a stack of 180,000 while Cahill's stack grew to around 60,000.

Corlett Eliminates Radgen

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Marc Radgen
Marc Radgen

Marc Radgen who shared with the table right before he won a hand that he will be back tomorrow said the same thing after being eliminated from the tournament.

Radgen jammed all in for about 10 big blinds with king-queen and his hand was unable to improve against the ace-king held by David Corlett.

Audrius Pilypoitis With the Three-Bet Check-Raise Turn Squeeze

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Three players got to a flop of {3-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}.

A check from Lithuanian Audrius Pilypoitis saw John Power bet 4,100 and David Corlett call. Pilypoitis stuck in the calling chips.

The turn was the {4-Clubs} and again Pilypoitis checked. A bet of 6,500 from Power once more saw a call from Corlett.

Pilypoitis though sprang a three-bet check-raise squeeze to 24,000 and the other two players surrendered their cards.

Marc Radgen Doubles His Short Stack

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Radgen Marc Marten
Radgen Marc Marten

Marc Radgen's stack was getting smaller and smaller for the past hour and was down to just 8,100 in chips. He is now in better shape after he doubled up against David Fitzgerald.

Fitzgerald opened from under the gun with a limp. Radgen then jammed all in from middle position. The action folded back around to Fitzgerald who tanked for a minute while he spoke with Radgen.

"Do you want a call?" asked Fitzgerald?

"I don't care, do what you think is best," said Radgen.

Fitzgerald thought for a few more moments before he called and turned over {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}. Ragden seemed upset that he maybe encouraged a call despite being ahead in the hand with {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}.

"I will see you guys tomorrow," said Radgen before the flop. "A king will appear on the flop.

The flop came {j-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Diamonds} and gave both players top-pair. Radgen was still ahead with a better kicker. The {9-Diamonds} came on the turn and Radgen said "king" before he shipped the pot when the {a-Hearts} completed the board on the river.
