Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Neophytos Neophytou
Neophytos Neophytou

For around 80,000, Neophytos Neophytou moved all in from under the gun and the action folded around to Enzo Del Piero on the button. The fellow Brit called and the blinds got out of the way.

Neophytos Neophytou: {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Enzo Del Piero: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}

After a board of {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs}{8-Spades}{K-Diamonds}, Neophytou was left drawing dead on the turn already and said a quick goodbye before heading to the payout desk. He takes home £7,650 for his efforts, the next spot pays the same amount.

Cardyn Doubles Through Johnson

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Nicolas Cardyn opened the previous hand to 27,000 and folded to a three-bet by Jonathan Clark before opening again the next hand for the same amount in the hijack. Chip leader Joe Johnson moved all in from the big blind and Cardyn called for his last 223,000.

Nicolas Cardyn: {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
Joe Johnson: {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}

On a board of {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}, Cardyn found both over cards and doubled up while Johnson lost a bigger pot for the first time in quite a while.

Beker Finds the Next Gear

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

A few hands ago, there was a raise and a call before Nicolas Beker three-bet shoved and claimed the pot without resistance. His next three-bet went also through and then Beker opened to 25,000. Yuriy Boyko three-bet to 65,000 in the cutoff and Beker four-bet to 130,000. After briefly asking for the amount, Boyko quickly called.

The flop of {7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} triggered a check by both players and Beker then bet the {10-Hearts} turn for 76,000 in order to force a fold from Boyko and build his stack further.

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Nathan Manuel opened to 27,000 from middle position and Yuriy Boyko called in the big blind. The duo checked the {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop and the {7-Diamonds} turn before Boyko bet the {10-Diamonds} river. Manuel quickly called, Boyko announced a ten, before then asking "how much is it?"

Boyko's bet had been for 40,000 and his {K-Spades}{10-Clubs} took down the pot, Manuel flashed {A-Clubs}{J-Spades}.

Lodge Doubles Through Neophytou

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Neophytos Neophytou raised from the hijack and Harry Lodge just flat-called to see the flop come {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. Neophytou checked, Lodge bet 40,000 and Neophytou then check-raised to 106,000. Lodge moved all in and received the call.

Harry Lodge: {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}
Neophytos Neophytou: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}

While the {6-Hearts} turn changed nothing, the {3-Clubs} on the river improved Lodge to a flush and Neophytou could only let out a "oh my god." Lodge doubled for 331,000 and left his opponent very short.
