Hands #1-5: Schillhabel Gets Value from Bonomo

Level 16 : 7,000/14,000, 14,000 ante

Hand #1: Stefan Schillhabel raised to 33,000 from the hijack with {k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} and Seth Davies called from the big blind with {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. The flop came {q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and Davies checked to Schillhabel who bet 28,000. Davies made the call and the {k-Hearts} landed on the turn. Davies checked again and Schillhabel fired 130,000. Davies laid his hand down and the first pot went to Schillhabel.

Hand #2: Steffen Sontheimer raised to 35,000 on the button with {8-Spades}{4-Spades} and Fedor Holz three-bet to 150,000 in the big blind with {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}. Sontheimer tossed his cards away and Holz took down the pot.

Hand #3: Sontheimer raised to 33,000 from the cutoff with {10-Hearts}{7-Hearts} and Davies re-raised to 100,000 with {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} on the button. Sontheimer folded again and Davies won the pot preflop.

Hand #4: Justin Bonomo opened to 33,000 from under the gun with {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and Sontheimer three-bet to 95,000 from the hijack with {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}. Bonomo folded to the three-bet and Sontheimer scooped the pot.

Hand #5: The action was folded to Schillhabel in the small blind who limped in with {j-Spades}{8-Spades} and Bonomo raised to 55,000 out of the big blind with {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}. Schillhabel called and the flop came {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}.

Schillhabel checked and Bonomo fired a continuation bet of 60,000. Schillhabel called with middle pair and the {3-Spades} peeled off on the turn. Both players checked to the {7-Clubs} on the river where Schillhabel bet 125,000. Bonomo made the call and Schillhabel tabled his pair of eights to win the hand.

Hands #6-10: Seth Davies Picking Up Chips

Level 16 : 7,000/14,000, 14,000 ante

Hand #6: Justin Bonomo limped the small blind holding the {2-Spades}{2-Hearts} and Steffen Sontheimer raised to 46,000 from the big with the {k-Clubs}{7-Hearts}. Bonomo called and then both players checked the {5-Spades}{4-Spades}{a-Diamonds} flop.

The action repeated itself on the {Q-Spades} turn, and the {3-Hearts} river wound up giving Bonomo a wheel. Bonomo bet 80,000 and Sontheimer folded.

Hand #7: Christian Christner raised to 33,000 with the {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} in the hijack and Bonomo flatted the button with the {j-Spades}{9-Spades}. The {a-Spades}{5-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} flop saw Christner continue for 50,000 and Bonomo released.

Hand #8: Sontheimer raised to 35,000 from the button with the {k-Spades}{6-Clubs} and Seth Davies called from the small blind holding the {j-Spades}{8-Spades}. Fedor Holz then looked down at the {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds} in the big and three-bet to 164,000. That did the trick as both his opponents folded.

Hand #9: Davies raised to 35,000 from the button with the {q-Spades}{10-Spades} and Christner defended the big blind with the {k-Clubs}{4-Spades}. The latter checked the {3-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and folded to a continuation-bet from Davies.

Hand #10: Davies raised to 33,000 with the {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} in the cutoff and Stefan Schillhabel defended the big with the {a-Clubs}{2-Hearts}. Schillhabel checked the {j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} flop and folded when Davies bet 45,000.

The flop landed {A-Spades}{3-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and Davies took the first stab with a bet of 35,000. Schillhabel called, Bonomo folded, and Sontheimer called also as the turn landed the {7-Clubs}.

All three players checked, and the river landed the {2-Spades}. Sontheimer checked, Davies bet 65,000, Schillhabel called, and Sontheimer called also.

The flop landed {A-Spades}{K-Spades}{9-Clubs} and Davies checked to Bonomo who bet 30,000. Davies called, and the {2-Clubs} rolled off on the turn and he checked again before Bonomo bet 100,000. Davies called, and the river landed the {A-Clubs}.

Davies checked, and Bonomo bet out 275,000. Davies quickly mucked, and Bonomo collected the pot to move to 892,000 in chips.

The flop landed {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Schillhabel checked over to Bonomo who continued for 75,000. Schillhabel called, and the turn landed the {5-Hearts} to give Bonomo further his advantage before both players checked.

The river landed the {8-Diamonds} and both players checked with Schillhabel tabling his rivered pair to collect the pot.

Hand #15: Fedor Holz called in the small blind holding {10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, and Christian Christner checked his {J-Spades}{5-Hearts} in the big blind.

The flop landed {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} and Holz checked to Christner who bet 20,000 and was met with an immediate Holz fold.

Seth Davies on Day 2

Hand #21: Stefan Schillhabel raised to 34,000 under the gun with the {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and the folded when Steffen Sontheimer three-bet to 113,000 from the cutoff with the {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}.

Hand #22: Fedor Holz raised the button to 35,000 with the {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and Schillhabel defended his big blind holding the {k-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}. Schillhabel checked the {6-Spades}{2-Spades}{j-Hearts} flop and folded to Holz's continuation-bet.

Hand #23: Seth Davies looked down at the {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} in the hijack and raised to 33,000. Christian Christner called from the button with the {7-Spades}{7-Hearts} and the flop came down {j-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. Christner checked his set and Davies bet 30,000. Christner responded with a check-raise to 100,000 and Davies used a time extension before moving all in for 445,000 total.

Christner snap-called and Davies was looking for some help. The {k-Diamonds} turn gave Davies a Broadway draw, but it was the {a-Spades} on the river that would give him a bigger set and the double.

Hand #24: Christner raised to 40,000 with the {a-Spades}{5-Clubs} in the cutoff and took down the blinds and antes.

Hand #25: Holz raised to 38,000 under the gun with the {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts} and Justin Bonomo looked down at the {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} on the button. He reraised to 115,000 and Holz folded.

Hands #26-30: Davies Makes Mistake and Folds Kings Preflop

Level 17 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Hand #26: Christian Christner opened to 38,000 from under the gun holding {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} and Fedor Holz defended the big blind with {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}.

The flop landed {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Holz checked to Christner who bet 25,000. Holz called, and the turn landed the {J-Spades}. Holz checked, and Christner bet out 75,000 which was met with a call from Holz as the river landed the {2-Clubs}.

Holz checked, Christner bet 150,000, and Holz folded.

Hand #27: Steffen Sontheimer opened the cutoff to 38,000 holding {Q-Spades}{7-Spades} and Seth Davies three-bet the button to 120,000 holding {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}.

From the big blind, Christian Christner four-bet to 290,000 holding {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}.

Sontheimer quickly mucked, and Davies mucked also believing it was just him and Sontheimer in the hand because when the dealer announced re-raise (in reference to Christner's four-bet), he believed it was a delayed announcement of his three-bet. Following the hand there was a little bit of confusion before Davies realized the mistake he had made.

Hand #28: Steffen Sontheimer opened to 37,000 holding {K-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and Seth Davies called holding {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} in the cutoff. From the button, Fedor Holz three-bet to 156,000 from the button with {J-Hearts}{7-Hearts}.

Sontheimer folded, but Davies called, as the flop landed {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and both players checked. The turn landed the {9-Spades} and both players checked again as the {6-Spades} completed the board on the river. Both players checked, and Davies collected the pot.

Hand #29: From the button, Christian Christner opened to 42,000 holding {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and collected the blinds and ante.

Hand #30: From the button, Stefan Schillhabel opened to 42,000 with {10-Hearts}{9-Spades} and Steffen Sontheimer looked down at {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} in the big blind and three-bet to 140,000. Schillhabel mucked, and Sontheimer was pushed the pot.

The flop came {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{7-Spades} and the action was checked to Schillhabel who bet 65,000. Sontheimer made the call and Davies mucked his hand.

The turn was the {5-Hearts} and Sontheimer checked again. Schillhabel fired 165,000 only to have Sontheimer check-raise to 385,000. Schillhabel called and the {8-Clubs} completed the board. Sontheimer reached back and pushed all-in for 555,000. Schillhabel took his time but eventually found a fold.

Hand #32: Schillhabel opened to 40,000 from the hijack with {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and was called by Sontheimer on the button with {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and Holz in the big blind with {6-Spades}{4-Diamonds}. The flop came {k-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{2-Spades} and the action was checked around to the {8-Diamonds} on the turn. Schillhabel took the first shot at the pot with a bet of 95,000 and both of his opponent folded.

Hand #33: Schillhabel raised again to 38,000 with {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts} under the gun and Seth Davies called from the button with {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}. Christian Christner also called from the big blind with {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds} and the flop came {10-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. The action was checked around to the {a-Diamonds} on the turn and Schillhabel was the first to bet 80,000. Davies made the call with his open-ended straight draw and Christner folded. The river brought the {4-Spades} and Schillhabel checked. Davies took that opportunity to fire 150,000 and Schillhabel laid down the best hand.

Hand #34: Justin Bonomo raised to 35,000 under the gun with {a-Spades}{q-Hearts} and was called by Christian Christner in the small blind with {q-Spades}{j-Spades}. Schillhabel also called from the big blind with {j-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} and the flop fell {8-Spades}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. The action was checked around to the {4-Diamonds} on the turn and Christner led out for 45,000 with a flush draw. Schillhabel made the call with a pair of sevens and Bonomo folded. The {5-Clubs} on the river put a straight on the board and Christner checked. Schillhabel made a big overbet of 320,000 and Christner was forced to fold.

Hand #35: Seth Davies raised to 35,000 from the hijack with {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and was called by Bonomo in the big blind with {6-Spades}{3-Spades}. The flop came {q-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades} and Bonomo check-called a bet of 30,000 from Davies. The turn was the {3-Diamonds} and both players checked to the {2-Spades} on the river.
