Pyke Doubles Into the Lead

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Danny Pyke
Danny Pyke

Danny Pyke had re-entered after he was eliminated earlier on and that seems to have paid off as he just won a very large pot to take the lead. With some 100,000 in the middle on a board of {9-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, Raul Lozano bet 68,000. Pyke then jammed for 148,000 total and Lozano went into the tank.

The reluctant call by the Spaniard followed and Pyke flipped over the {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} for a set of tens to score the double. Lozano was trying to muck his cards but they were revealed according to the all-in showdown rule, as {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts} were revealed to put a major dent into Lozano's stack.

Sheils and Taylor Eliminated

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Brandon Sheils
Brandon Sheils

Brandon Sheils doubled through Ken Taylor and then limped in shortly after. Gary Miller raised to 6,500 on the button and Sheils opted to call. The duo headed to the {q-Spades}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop on which Sheils check-raised from 7,500 to 19,500 with Miller coming along.

After the {2-Hearts} turn, Sheils bet what appeared to be 52,000 with one T-500 chip behind for Miller to shove and Sheils to call it off.

Brandon Sheils: {k-Spades}{5-Spades}
Gary Miller: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}

Sheils needed a spade but the {k-Hearts} river was not enough.

One hand later, Ken Taylor got the last 6,000 in preflop and Mikhail Dinchev called with the {q-Clubs}{8-Spades}. Taylor only had the {7-Spades}{6-Spades} and found no help on the {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} to eliminate the next player.

Slack Double Leaves Saout Short

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

A large pot developed in a battle Antoine Saout versus Ben Slack as they headed to the {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{2-Spades}{10-Hearts}{6-Clubs} river. Slack checked in the small blind and Saout then bet 35,500 on the button. What followed was the check-shove by Slack for 75,000 and Saout asked for a count before reluctantly calling.

Slack rolled over the {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for a full house and Saout flashed the {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs} before paying off his opponent.

Salih Doubles; Saout Doesn't

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Antoine Saout

Shay Salih raised and then called all-in for the last 51,000 when Joseph Lalor pushed all-in with the far bigger stack from one seat over.

Shay Salih: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Joseph Lalor: {3-Hearts}{3-Spades}

The {a-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop propelled Salih into the lead, which he kept throughout the {q-Spades} turn and {9-Clubs} river.

Soon after, Antoine Saout was all-in for very few chips and earned three callers. On the {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop, Salih checked and so did Lalor. Alexios Zervos bet 7,500 and Salih folded, Lalor check-raised to 30,000 and Zervos came along.

The {a-Diamonds} turn and {10-Diamonds} river were checked for Zervos to flip over {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}. Lalor had that beat with {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and Saout's {9-Hearts}{2-Clubs} were only briefly exposed. Zervos was left with the head shaking after seeing the cards of Lalor but remains the biggest stack at the table, which no longer contains Alex Goulder.
