Galtos Among Casualties

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Yannick Breuer
Yannick Breuer

Nicholas Galtos put his hopes on {K-}{J-} on a king-high board and Yannick Bräuer called with {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} for the better kicker to see the river blank, sending Galtos to the rail.

At the same time one table over, Sascha Niese was awaiting his fate after moving all in out of the small blind for 4,600 only on the {8-Clubs}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop. Claudio Celenza called in the big blind, as did Jonas Wohlgemuth and Maximilian Silz.The {10-Hearts} appeared on the turn and the action checked to Silz, who bet 9,000. That was enough to isolate and Niese turned over {5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, Silz had the {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades} and the {5-Diamonds} river completed the board.

"Oh damn, I had ace deuce," Celenza sighed, but remains the far biggest stack on the table.

Eazy Game

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Eazy Shabaz looked up short stack [Removed:321] Safaei with {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} and faced {K-Clubs}{10-Spades} to claim the pot as soon as the {A-Hearts} appeared on the turn, leaving Safaei drawing dead.

Hermann Behrens stood no chance either and Carlos Spoddig failed to get there with {Q-Spades}{7-Hearts} against the {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} of Kayhan Molaci. The board ran out {10-Clubs}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{K-Hearts} and Spoddig was gone.

Kopyl Cut From the Field by Van Zadelhof

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

The PokerNews live reporting team ran into Waldemar Kopyl on the rail and he was kind enough to tell us about how he busted.

"I shoved all in from the early position with 8,200 and the big blind was 1,600 already. I had king-seven. Everyone folded except Andreas van Zadelhof who called from the big blind with king-ten. The flop was king-eight-four, Flop an ace and the river a jack. Its ok, I feel good." he said with a smile.

Silz Eliminates Two

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Andreas Broch shoved from the under-the-gun position for 22,800 and action folded to Thorben Vellrath in the cutoff. He also shoved for the 8,500 he had behind. Maximilian Silz, sitting in the big blind, thought about it for a bit and then called.

Maximilian Silz: {10-Spades}{8-Spades}
Andreas Broch: {7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
Thorben Vellrath: {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {6-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{J-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} -although Broch hit a six on the flop, Silz bettered his own hand when he hit the eight on the turn and he was awarded the whole pot. Both Broch and Vellrath left the table quickly.

Several Big Stacks Emerge

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Behzad Zarnegar was already up to more than 200,000 but has since lost some chips while Vedran Mandic one table over sent a short stack to the rail for 10,600. Mandic had an easy call with {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}, and the player at risk only had {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} to end up drawing dead on the turn of a board {8-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}.

Aleksandar Tomovic got the remainder of his short stack in with {A-Clubs}{2-Hearts}, but failed to hold up versus {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} on a board of {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{6-Spades}{Q-Hearts}.
