Cortese Thriving

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

After calling a raise by Lam Van Trinh, Francesco headed to a river of {9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and Trinh check-called a bet worth 250,000 only to get shown {A-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a straight by the Italian.

Cortese put the profit to use right away and raised it up the next hand to 85,000. Daniel Harwood called in the big blind and check-folded a flop of {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{J-Spades}.

Hero Call From Tripodi

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

The board at the river read {5-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and Yuriy Boyko moved all in for 530,000 which was pretty much pot sized bet.

Clement Tripodi was in the tank deciding whether to call or fold. It was close to 10 minutes before Tripodi called the clock on himself.

As the countdown from ten seconds began Tripodi had a chip in his hand and as it reached one second he dropped it to call.

“Flush.” Boyko said and turned over {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. Tripodi had made the call with {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}.

Jonathan Solomon Somekh Eliminated

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Jonathan Solomon Somekh was all in preflop and at risk with {a-Clubs}{7-Hearts}.

Unfortunately for him he had run into the {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} of Francesco Cortese.

The board ran out {7-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{6-Spades}{4-Spades} and Somekh was out in 17th spot just short of the final two tables.

Just before that there had been two eliminations to get down to the last 2 tables and a redraw will now take place.

Sohal Loses Flip to Skipper

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Down to around 400,000, only ten big blinds, Bobinder Sohal shoved from early position and the action folded all the way around to Paul Skipper in the big blind. The Brit checked his cards and called.

Bobinder Sohal: {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}
Paul Skipper: {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}

The board came {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and Sohal was eliminated in 18th place, while Skipper jumped above one million in chips.

Steward Busts to Trivedi

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Kevin Steward
Kevin Steward

Smit Trivedi opened to 85,000 and Ludovic Geilich called in the hijack. Kevin Steward then moved all in for 420,000 from the cutoff and Trivedi called. Geilich verified the shove with the dealer and called as well to head to the flop of {Q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades}. Trivedi continued for 430,000 and Geilich eventually folded.

Kevin Steward: {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}
Smit Trivedi: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

Neither the {J-Clubs} turn nor the {6-Diamonds} river changed anything and the last PokerStars qualifier had to settle for 19th place.

Tripodi Busts De Haas

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Clement Tripodi replied "maybe" to the question of whether or not calling a shove of Bappie De Haas. That was two orbits ago and now De Haas open-shoved for 320,000 from the small blind. Tripodi snap-called in the big blindand Lam Van Trinh "ohhhh'd" when he spotted the cards.

Bappie De Haas: {5-Spades}{4-Hearts}
Clement Tripodi: {7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}

The board came {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{6-Spades}{10-Clubs} and that was it for De Haas in 20th place.
