Kanarkiewicz Bad Beats Kylevik

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

It was no huge pot anymore, but Steffen Kylevik still must have left the table before the break with a sour taste on the lips. He three-bet shoved for the remainder of his stack with pocket tens and initial raiser Michal Kanarkiewicz called with {A-Hearts}{6-Hearts}. "It was a bad beat, I hit the flush on river" the player from Poland said.

The Fate of the Early Lead

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The last three players to find their way to the rail held a big stack early on, is this a fate and pattern for Day 1a? Steffen Kylevik appeared last in the list of bustouts and we are trying to figure out after the break what exactly happened.

Sebastien Grax
Sebastien Grax

In a big preflop clash over on table three, Christer Nagell and Daniel Vittikko were at it. The battle of Scandinavia went towards Nagell with the {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} as Vittikko held {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} and found no help on a board of {10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{6-Spades}{7-Hearts}{X-}.

Also out: Sebastien Grax, who was up to three times the starting stack after only two levels of play.

Bluff on the Feature Table

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Szilard Sas opened the action and then called the three-bet of Markus Heikkils for 8,000 total. The Swede was sitting in the big blind with the {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades} and continued with a bet of 11,200 on the {10-Spades}{K-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop with Sas coming along. Both players checked the {A-Clubs} turn and the dealer then burned and turned the {9-Clubs} as final community card.

Heikkils checked and Sas took the initiative to bluff it with a bet of 18,200, holding the {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for third pair only. The move went through and Sas moved up to six digits.

Queens for Harkes

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Peter Harkes called a raise to 2,500 from the hijack seat and found one further caller behind to see a three-way flop of {9-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. The action was checked to Harkes who made it 4,500 to go and was called only by the initial raiser to see the {6-Spades} appear on the turn.

Again the Dutchman received a check-call, this time for 11,000, before the {A-Hearts} killed off all remaining action. The opponent flashed his {5-Clubs}{6-Clubs} as first after the button and Harkes scooped the pot with the {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}.

Prusov Cannot Dodge it Again

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Down to only 12,300 chips, Unibet qualifier Dmitrii Prusov shoved all in and was called by George McDonald from one seat over. Everyone else folded and the Brit then quietly turned over his {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} while Prusov was at risk with the {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}. It was all over after the turn of a {6-Spades}{10-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} board.

Roller Coasting

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Frank van Honk was a bigger stack for most of the day but that changed over the past hour or so, eventually getting the last of it in with pocket jacks versus pocket aces. The Dutchman found no help and has been eliminated, same also applied for Krzysztof Stuchlik from Poland.

And then there is the roller coaster of a day from Mateusz Moolhuizen. Half an hour ago he made quite some chips with {Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} after flopping top pair with the worse kicker and finding his ten on the very last community card. That profit has since vanished, in the last hand he ran into {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and a flopped set but fortunately checked behind twice to minimize the loss.
