Schemion Sends Shakerchi Out

Level 18 : 17,500/35,000, 4,500 ante

The action folded all the way to Ole "wizowizo" Schemion on the button and he moved all in to put pressure on the two shorter stacks in the blinds. Talal "raidalot" Shakerchi was one of them and called all-in for 581,719 in the small blind.

Talal "raidalot" Shakerchi: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Ole "wizowizo" Schemion: {j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

Schemion flopped best on {q-Spades}{10-Spades}{4-Hearts} and the {8-Spades} turn came a blank, too. The {10-Hearts} river further improved Schemion to trips tens and Shakerchi was out in 14th place.

Kanit Felted by Martirosian

Level 17 : 15,000/30,000, 3,750 ante

Down to the last 201,618, Mustapha "lasagnaaammm" Kanit moved all in from early position and it was only fitting that big chip leader Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian isolated by moving all in from the button.

Mustapha "lasagnaaammm" Kanit: {k-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian: {j-Spades}{9-Hearts}

Kanit was ahead but Martirosian finished off the job he had started on a board of {7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{q-Spades} to claim the bounty of the Italian.
