Lucky Six Saves Sorrentino

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Raffaele Sorrentino got his last 254,000 in from the small blind against button Moritz Dietrich.

Moritz Dietrich: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Raffaele Sorrentino: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}

Things weren't looking too good for Sorrentino on the flop ({5-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}) or turn ({10-Clubs}), but the river {6-Clubs} sure was a delight.

Stefan Schillhabel opened to 37,000 second to act and then called a three-bet to 137,000 from Michael Kolkowicz, who was in the big blind. Schillhabel called a bet of 182,000 on the {8-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop. The {6-Hearts} turn brought a tank from Kolkowicz and then a bet of 223,000. Schillhabel mucked in short order.

Papazian Eliminates Testud

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Alexandru Papazian bet 77,000 from the small blind into two opponents on a board of {k-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}. The big blind folded, but Paul Testud called on the button. Papazian bet 93,000 on the {3-Diamonds} river, and Testud immediately shoved all in. After tanking a couple of minutes, Papazian called for 254,000.

Testud showed {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for a straight, but Papazian had {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a flush.

"I thought you would shove this hand on the turn," Papazian said. "No slowroll."

Papazian Forces Out Kitai

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

In what was a sizable pot already, the board read {9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}. Alexandru Papazian, seated in the big blind, had a bet of 151,000 in front of him. His opponent, neighbor Davidi Kitai, was in the tank.

Kitai tanked for so long that Papazian called for the clock. The floor came over and informed Kitai he had a minute to act on his hand. Kitai ran the clock down completely, not making a move. The dealer took away his cards and Papazian smiled while collecting the chips.

Kitai Checks Trips

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

On a completed board of {7-Hearts}{3-Spades}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, Bertrand Grospellier checked first to act, and Davidi Kitai tanked a couple of minutes and checked back. Grospellier showed {10-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for a counterfeited two pair, and Kitai had the card that counterfeited him: {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. Grospellier is one of the shorter stacks now, under 15 big blinds.

Tedeschi Wins Long Hand

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

After a middle-position raise to 37,000 and a Lee Hon Cheong call in the hijack, Paul Tedeschi made it 140,000 from the big blind. Only Cheong came along, seeing {q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{k-Hearts} flop. Tedeschi bet 162,000 on the monotone flop after thinking awhile, and Cheong called. On the {2-Spades} turn, Tedeschi thought less long before shoving for 375,000. After about three or four minutes in the tank, Cheong let it go.
