Three-Way All in Goes To Alejandro Sicuro

Level 6 : 250/500, 75 ante

Cesar Soto was under the gun and raised to 1,350. Franco Pandolfino was in the hijack and called, as did the button and the small blind. Alejandro Sicuro was in the big blind and three-bet all in for 19,075. Soto immediately announced, "All in" and action folded back to the small blind. After contemplating things for a moment, he pushed his remaining 5,350 forward.

Sicuro tabled {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, Soto showed {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} and the small blind had {6-Spades}{5-Spades}.

The flop was {6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades} giving more outs to the players at risk.

The turn was the {j-Spades}, giving the small blind even more outs with a flush draw. The {a-Hearts} hit the river, and Sicuro made two pair.

The flop came {8-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Spades} and action checked to Tarifeno on the button, who bet 1,350. The big blind called, and Chauriye decided to put in a check-raise to 5,025. The cutoff folded, and both Tarifeno and the big blind called.

The turn was the {q-Hearts} and the big blind checked. Chauriye bet 6,500 this time, and Tarifeno called. The big blind folded.

The river was the {a-Spades}. Chauriye checked, and Tarifeno thought for about a minute before betting 11,500. Chauriye let out a sigh and shook his head. He counted out his stack, looked back at his cards and eventually folded.

Leo Fernandez Eliminated by Diego Nicolas

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Team PokerStars Pro, Leo Fernandez
Team PokerStars Pro, Leo Fernandez

Team PokerStars Pro, Leo Fernandez, was just seen walking out of the tournament room after firing his second bullet in this Main Event.

Fernandez first got his stack in the middle with {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} against Diego Nicolas' {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} and was unable to improve. Just a few hands later, Nicolas was the one holding ace-king, and Fernandez was unable to make a hand to save his tournament life.

Registration is still open until the end of level 8, so it is possible he may hop in again soon.

Jorge Teodoulou Takes One Down on the Last Hand Before Break

Level 4 : 150/300, 50 ante

The turn was the {j-Diamonds} and the small blind checked. Teodoulou elected to bet 2,300 this time. The player in the cutoff called as well as the small blind.

The river was the {9-Spades} and the small blind checked. Teodoulou grabbed the rest of his chips and went all in for 5,625. Both his opponents took about a minute each and eventually folded. Teodoulou more than doubled up his stack without having to go to show down.
