Yan Doubles; Muehloecker Takes from Akhundov

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Hand 1

Felipe Ramos called a raise to 26,000 by Jimmy Guerrero and the flop fell {A-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{2-Spades}. Guerrero continued for 40,000 from under the gun and Ramos called before the {J-Hearts} on the turn saw Guerrero fire another 75,000. Again Ramos called and the {6-Spades} river was checked through, Ramos claimed the pot with {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}.

Hand 2

[Removed:17] shoved for 62,000 from under the gun with {Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and Thomas Muehloecker called with the {A-Spades}{J-Spades} out of the big blind. The board ran out {Q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and Yan doubled, then took some more chips.

Hand 3

In the last hand before the Break, Muehloecker raised and Murad Akhundov defended the big blind. Akhundov check-called 48,000 on the {Q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop and the {J-Hearts} turn was checked through. Akhundov's bet of 130,000 on the {K-Diamonds} river resulted in the all in of Muehloecker and that forced a fold from Akhundov.

Gomez Zapatero Jams

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Over on table one a small pot emerged. Julian Thomas raised to 35,000 and Vlado Banicevic called in the big blind. The duo checked the {9-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{5-Spades} board and Banicevic showed {K-Hearts}{10-Spades}. Thomas had that beat with {K-Clubs}{J-Hearts} and claimed the pot.

On table two, Philipp Gruissem raised to 36,000 from the hijack and Javier Gomez Zapatero shoved for exactly 200,000 on the button to force a fold.

Mateos Shoves on Banicevic

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Dario Sammartino raised to 35,000 under the gun and Adrian Mateos called. Vlado Banicevic three-bet to 117,000 on the button and Sammartino folded.

Mateos had a different plan, as he decided to shove all in to put Banicevic to the test. The Montenegrin considered it for the better part of a minute before folding.

Everybody Loves a ...

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

... chop pot. Well, in this case [Removed:17] surely preferred to lock up the double, but the player from New Zealand had to settle for a split. Thomas Muehloecker raised to 36,000 and Yan shoved for 142,000 from one seat over on the button with {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}. Muehloecker reluctantly called with {A-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and almost got there on a board of {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{J-Spades}.

Adrian Mateos: {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
