How Many Players Can be All in in One Hand?"

Level 7 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Christopher Andler
Christopher Andler

Christopher Andler raised to 55,000 first to act and Ka Him Li shoved for 325,000. Anton Suarez shoved for 620,000 and Michele di Lauro called all in for 130,000 in the cutoff. Action folded back to Andler, who asked for the biggest stack size before sighing. "How many players can be all in in one hand?" the Swede asked, then called.

Michele di Lauro: {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
Ka Him Li: {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Anton Suarez: {A-Clubs}{J-Hearts}
Christopher Andler: {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}

Andler had the best of it and was still on track for a triple knockout on the {10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Spades} flop. However, the {A-Spades} turn and {4-Clubs} river completed the board and just di Lauro was caught in the crossfire.

"I am Going Home Tomorrow"

Level 7 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Kitty Kuo
Kitty Kuo

Rabah Ait Abdelmalek had Kitty Kuo all in and at risk for her last 160,000 and turned over {J-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}, Kuo had the {A-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. The board came {J-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} and the Frenchman improved to trips.

"I am going home tomorrow," Kuo said and table neighbor Jack Salter inquired further. Kuo had already re-entered and cannot do so anymore. "See you in Vegas, I guess," Salter added before Kuo grabbed her belongings.

Dominik Nitsche is also on bullet number two for this flight and just lost a small pot. On a flop of {5-Spades}{3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} Nitsche bet 50,000 and called a raise to 150,000, before the {J-Clubs} turn and {5-Diamonds} river were checked. Nitsche flashed the {A-Hearts} and his opponent took down the pot with {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}.

Action Table for Jiang

Level 6 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Hamad Almannai opened to 125,000 first to act, more than six times the big blind, and Sosia Jiang called in the cutoff. Artan Dedusha in the small blind gave it a lot of thought and folded, claiming he made a "very tight fold" and Jordan Saccucci also released his cards.

On a flop of {J-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Spades}, Almannai continued for 140,000 and was called before firing another 275,000 on the {8-Clubs} turn, Jiang called. The {7-Diamonds} completed the river and Almannai now bet just 75,000. "You know what? I have no idea what is going on," Jiang said in table chat while jokingly receiving a massage by the next dealer that was waiting to take over after the hand. Jiang called and Almannai turned over {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, Jiang had that beat with {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.

During the hand, Mikita Badziakouski added "oh, we have an action table" and that one also includes Martin Jacobson.

Guilbert Doubles Through Goeller

Level 6 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Johan Guilbert was all in for 285,000 after a raise to 50,000 by Jaroslaw Sikora and Andreas Goeller called from one seat over. That forced out everyone else and Sikora also let go.

Johan Guilbert: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Andreas Goeller: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

After a board of {Q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}, Guilbert dodged the two over cards and better diamond draw to secure a double. Many other notables were less fortunate and busted recently.

Kabrhel Takes from Stasiewicz

Level 6 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

"He is probably a live satellite qualifier. You like the color?" Martin Kabrhel asked over to the other side of the table to his sole remaining opponent Bartosz Stasiewicz. The completed board showed {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and Stasiewicz had checked in the small blind, Kabrhel bet 315,000 into 450,000 after the small talk.

No instant call followed and Kabrhel added "no snap call, I win," and another 60 seconds followed before the call came from Stasiewicz. Kabrhel rolled over {7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for the straight and won the pot. "See, I was right, he didn't have the flush." Right after, he added "oh, the champ arrives" to Chi Zhang who took a seat.

One seat over is Joris Ruijs with a decent stack.
