Down to just 13 and a half blinds, Patrick "pads1161" Leonard limped the small blind and Ole "wizowizo" Schemion checked his option from the big blind. On a {10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop, Leonard bet 2,875 and Schemion raised to 8,000 to then call the shove for 24,939.

Patrick "pads1161" Leonard: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}
Ole "wizowizo" Schemion: {10-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}

The {5-Spades} turn and {j-Hearts} river runout ensured that the flopped two pair of Schemion remained best as Leonard departed.

Mateos Doubles; Reeves Busts

Level 7 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Greenwood vs Reeves
Greenwood vs Reeves

Adrian "Amadi_017" Mateos raised to 4l000 on the button and Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian three-bet to 16,000 in the small blind. Mateos four-bet and then called the five-bet shove of Martirosian.

Adrian "Amadi_017" Mateos: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian: {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

Martirosian flopped best on {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{4-Hearts} but the {a-Clubs} turn improved Mateos, who then held on the {7-Hearts} river.

Martirosian pulled some chips back to then lose a chunk of it to Sam "Str8$$$Homey" Greenwood before the Canadian knocked out Luke "Bit2Easy" Reeves the very next hand. In a three-bet pot to 16,800 by Greenwood in the small blind, the flop came {a-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Hearts} and was checked. Greenwood bet the {j-Diamonds} turn for 25,600 and picked up a call to then jam the {8-Clubs} river.

Reeves called with the {a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} but Greenwood had the best of it with {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}.
