Ventura Doubles

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

Diego Ventura got his last 219,000 in before the flop from the cutoff holding {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}. His opponent was small blind Sebastian Malec who tabled {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}.

The flop gave Malec some hope with {4-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, but the {4-Hearts} on the turn and {K-Spades} on the river were blanks. Double up for Ventura.

Hossein Ensan Eliminated

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

Down to his last 209,000, Hossein Ensan shoved under the gun. The former EPT 3rd place finisher (EPT Barcelona 2014) and winner (EPT Prague 2015) found a caller in big blind Sergei Petrushevskii.

Sergei Petrushevskii: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Hossein Ensan: {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

Ensan was in a world of trouble and only got deeper in it with the {10-Spades}{K-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop. Once the {5-Hearts} hit the turn, Ensan got up as he was drawing dead. The {3-Diamonds} on the river was there just to make things official.

Dan Smith busted out from the featured table. He got it in there with his last seven big blinds or so in the cutoff and had live cards with {q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} against Paul Testud's {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. The flop was dead for both, but a king on the turn left Smith felted.
