Mateos Takes From "SmilleThHero"

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 1,250 ante

Adrian "Amadi_017" Mateos defended his big blind against a cutoff raise to 22,500 by "SmilleThHero" and they checked the {4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} flop. On the {k-Hearts} turn, Mateos check-called a bet of 36,000 and the {q-Clubs} river was checked through once more.

Mateos tabled {a-Spades}{5-Hearts} and that was enough to earn the pot.

Reixach Busts Schemion

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 1,250 ante
Schemion vs Reixach
Schemion vs Reixach

An initial raise to 22,000 by Sergi "srxakgirona" Reixach in the cutoff saw Ole "wizowizo" Schemion shove for 216,764 on the button and he was called by Reixach.

Ole "wizowizo" Schemion: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}
Sergi "srxakgirona" Reixach: {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Again Reixach held the best hand against a shorter stack and earned the checkmark on the {j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} turn, which made the {6-Spades} river a formality.

Vousden Chips Up a Lot

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Sam "Str8$$$Homey" Greenwood made it 17,600 to go and was called by Samuel "€urop€an" Vousden on the button. Greenwood continued for 36,432 on the {q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop to get called by Vousden and the {10-Diamonds} turn was checked.

Greenwood then bet the {q-Spades} river for 104,000 and Vousden flat-called with {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for trips queens, which beat the {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} of Greenwood. One hand later, Vousden then won another decent pot when he bet the {a-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs}{k-Clubs} turn to force folds from Tomi "elmerixx" Brouk and "Apo5555".

Reixach Felts Eibinger

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Sergi "srxakgirona" Reixach made it 17,600 to go and table short stack Matthias "iambest2" Eibinger moved in for the last 167,633 on the button. Once the blinds got out of the way, Reixach snap-called and he had once again picked up kings.

Matthias "iambest2" Eibinger: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Sergi "srxakgirona" Reixach: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

One jack appeared on the {j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop but the {2-Diamonds} turn and {k-Clubs} river brought no further help to Eibinger.

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Martirosian vs MaxHendrix
Martirosian vs MaxHendrix

In Russian vs Russian action, "MaxHendrix" won a huge pot off Vyacheslav "VbV1990" Buldygin when their sevens rivered a straight to get paid off for a pot of nearly half a million in chips.

The next Russian to face off with "MaxHendrix" was then Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian who defended the big blind against a min-raise from under the gun. They checked the {q-Spades}{10-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop and Martirosian check-jammed for 122,325 into a bet of 22,000. "MaxHendrix" called to set up the following showdown.

Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian: {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}
"MaxHendrix": {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The {5-Diamonds} river failed to improve the combo draw of Martirosian and he was gone in 24th place.
