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.

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.

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.

Duta Eliminated by O'Driscoll

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

Florian Duta was not too pleased when he was just reluctantly called for the last 17,000, seated on the right of the dealer while Conor O'Driscoll was on the other side of the table.

Florian Duta: {a-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Conor O'Driscoll: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The kicker played on the {a-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{j-Hearts} board and Duta quickly left the tournament area.
