Fox Bets Big

Level 11 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Elio Fox raised to 20,000 from the button and was called by both Jonathan Kamhazi and Alex Foxen in the blinds.

They all checked through the {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} on the flop to the {9-Spades} on the turn. Kamhazi put in a chip of 25,000 but announced a bet of 21,000. Foxen clarified how much the bet was for, took a few seconds, and then opted to fold. Fox called.

The river completed the board with the {q-Hearts}, Kamhazi checked and Fox tanked using a time bank card. Fox then put in almost his whole stack for a bet of around 146,000, leaving himself behind with less than 10,000. Kamhazi looked a bit perplexed and quickly folded.

David Peters opened to 18,000 from middle position. Igor Kurganov, on the button, called. Byron Kaverman, in the big blind, three-bet to 83,000. Peters called. Kurganov folded.

The flop came {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and was checked around to the {4-Spades} turn. Again, both players check.

Been Doubles Through Sontheimer

Level 11 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Steffen Sontheimer shoved from the button for around 170,000 and Aaron Been snap-called in the big blind for the 109,000 he had behind.

"That was a quick call?!" Sontheimer commented before the cards were flipped open.

Aaron Been: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Steffen Sontheimer: {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}

The board ran out {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{2-Spades}{j-Spades}{6-Hearts} for Been's pocket kings to hold and provide him the double-up.

Over on one of the other tables, Koray Aldemir was eliminated but the details are unfortunately unknown.

Sontheimer Eliminated

Level 11 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The exact details are unknown but Steffen Sontheimer has just been eliminated by Jack Salter when he went all-in for his last chips in the big blind. Salter was sitting on the button and Jason Koon was also involved in the hand from the small blind.

This means that the 24 remaining players will be redrawn to the final three tables.
