Double Knockout for Botteon

Level 4 : 1,800/3,600, 450 ante
Double Knockout for Botteon
Double Knockout for Botteon

Javier "que_te_crio" Fernandez moved all in for just 34,471 and Georgios "Geokarak" Karakousis reshoved for 138,442 from one seat over. Brunno "botteonpoker" Botteon isolated by shoving for 276,724 in the hijack and Stephen "stevie444" Chidwick then ripped it in from the small blind with the biggest stack.

Javier "que_te_crio" Fernandez: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}
Georgios "Geokarak" Karakousis: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Brunno "botteonpoker" Botteon: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}
Stephen "stevie444" Chidwick: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

The {a-Hearts}{8-Spades}{3-Spades} flop provided the case ace and Botteon with the worst kicker picked up a flushdraw. The {3-Clubs} turn changed nothing but the {4-Spades} river improved the Brazilian to a flush to secure the double knockout and leave Chidwick short.

Chidwick vs Jeppsson

Only a few hands ago, Stephen "stevie444" Chidwick had doubled up a flip with nines versus ace-queen and now shoved his short stack again from the cutoff. Christian "eisenhower1" Jeppsson isolated from the small blind and they went heads-up into the following showdown.

Stephen "stevie444" Chidwick: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Christian "eisenhower1" Jeppsson: {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

The {a-Spades}{8-Hearts}{7-Spades}{j-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} board was not without sweat but Chidwick doubled once more thanks to the superior kicker.
