Blasko Chips Up

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Marek Blasko sat down not long ago and immediately made an impact at his table, chipping up by one third of his stack.

In the latest hand, Blasko bet the {K-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{4-Spades} flop for 1,800 against two opponents and just Maciej Kondraszuk called. The {J-Spades} turn was checked and Kondraszuk bet the Kh] river for 2,300. Blasko called and Kondraszuk rolled over {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, which Blasko had beat with {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}.

Tvrznik Eliminates Gjergji

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Lazer Gjergji limped under the gun and Paulina Rimkute also limped in the next position. Willem de Jong raised to 2,000 and the player in the cutoff called. Roman Tvrznik called in the big blind, and he was joined by the two limpers.

"I need a miracle," said Gjergji as the flop came {4-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}. It checked to de Jong who bet 6,000 into a pot of 10,000. The cutoff folded, Tvrznik called from the big blind and Gjergji called too. Rimkute folded.

The turn was the {9-Clubs}. Tvrznik checked.

"The miracle is here," said Gjergji moving all in for around 10,000.

Tvrznik turned over {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a flush and announced call. Gjergji showed {5-Clubs}{8-Clubs} also for a flush, but with a redraw to a straight flush.

"Come on six!" he said, but the river was the {a-Clubs}, improving both players but not enough to save Gjergji from elimination.

Willem de Jong
Willem de Jong

Edgaras Pipine and Karol Radomski were eliminated in quick succession and Maciej Kondraszuk sent his stack over to Marek Blasko.

Then, a three-way flop of {10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} emerged and a player bet 3,300. Willem de Jong moved all in for 13,225 from the cutoff and Manfred Komling called on the button. Roman Tvrzník reraised all in and forced folds from all opponents.

Willem de Jong: {K-Diamonds}{J-Spades}
Roman Tvrzník: {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}

"Queen on the river!" the Dutchman demanded, but both the {A-Diamonds} turn and {A-Hearts} river were blanks to send de Jong to the rail as well.

Lux Extends Lead

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Christopher Bock
Christopher Bock

The stack of Christopher Bock vanished when he had an unfortunate timing to improve to a straight with {9-}{8-} on a board of {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. The te-high straight was no good, as big stack Marek Lux turned over {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} for the nut straight and that sent Bock to the rail.

Right after, Lux won another bigger pot with {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} for top pair and Marketa Veisova lost the remainder of her short stack on a different table.
