Elvevold Thriving

Level 2 : 100/200, 25 ante

On the three-way flop {9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{4-Spades}, the action was checked to Asbjorn Elvevold in the big blind and he bet 1,500. Thomas Sandvik called on the button and then Christophe van Schependom check-raised to 4,000. Elvevold clicked to 11,500 and Sandvik quickly folded while van Schependom called.

The {A-Spades} on the turn saw van Schependom check-call a bet of 10,000 rather quickly and both players then checked the {2-Spades} river. Van Schependom would have been the first to show after the button, but Elvevold had already turned over his {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for a set of eights that turned into an eight-high flush. The Belgian nodded and mucked his cards to give the pot to Elvevold.

Bjorkman and Polunin Eliminated

Level 2 : 100/200, 25 ante

Just before the end of the level, Soren Bjorkman and Viacheslav Polunin have been eliminated. The latter had flopped bottom set with pocket sixes on a flop of {Q-}{10-}{6-} and Morgan Wald pushed on the {10-} turn with {Q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. "I got lucky, another queen came on the river," Wald said.

Quads help van Itterbeeck to Recover

Level 2 : 100/200, 25 ante

In a four-way pot, Dieter van Itterbeeck flopped bottom set on {K-}{J-}{5-} and turned quads with another {5-}. A {10-} appeared on the river and the 7,000-bet of the Belgian was not called, though he still showed the cards. The Belgian lost some chips early on and recovered most of the losses with the hand, a call would have been even sweeter though.

Bui Busts with Flush over Flush

Level 3 : 150/300, 50 ante
Oanh Bui
Oanh Bui

Oanh Bui raised from the button and Niels de Wijs three-bet to get a call from Bui. On the flop {8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}, de Wijs check-called a bet of 2,000 and did so again for 3,800 on the {3-Hearts} turn.

The {4-Diamonds} came on the river and de Wijs now led for 9,500. Bui raised to 22,000 with about 5,000 chips behind and de Wijs moved all in, claiming he had the nuts with ace-ten of hearts. Bui eventually called it off and was indeed shown the {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts} by her opponent to flip over the inferior {6-Hearts}{7-Hearts}.
