Byrne and Nica Bust to von Zweigbergk

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Daiva Byrne
Daiva Byrne

Martin von Zweigbergk raised to 2,500 first to act and Adrian Nica shoved for around 20,000 in the small blind. Daiva Byrne reshoved out of the small blind for around 55,000 and von Zweigbergk called to set up the following three-bet showdown.

Adrian Nica: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Daiva Byrne: {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}
Martin von Zweigbergk: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

The {8-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Spades} flop was a sweat as Byrne picked up the better flush draw, but the {5-Clubs} turn and {10-Diamonds} river both blanked.

Lisii's Move Not Rewarded

Level 11 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Serghei Lisii
Serghei Lisii

With 20,000 in the middle and the board showing {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}, Serghei Lisii moved all in and was called by Carmine Venditti.

Serghei Lisii: {5-Hearts}{2-Clubs}
Carmine Venditti: {A-Clubs}{J-Spades}

The {A-Spades} river was the cherry on the cake, giving Venditti a full house and Lisii's move with a gutshot only went wrong to send the Russian to the rail.

Down to 75 in the Main Event; High Roller on the Bubble

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The €2,200 High Roller resumed with 15 players after their dinner break, and that number has since been reduced to 14 and the direct money bubble has been reached. Still in contention are Mateusz Moolhuizen, Dan Chisu, Dara O’Kearney (Unite ambassador), Eric Wasylenko, Dorin Rauta, Mihai Niste, Jason Gray, Katsuhiro Muto.

The stream can be watched on the Twitch channel of Unibet Poker.

In the meanwhile, several players busted in the Main Event to reduce that field to 75. Among them was Kristof Coenen, and Mayan Shih joined the rail soon after.

"I am the Worst"

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

On the tail end of a board {5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}, Martin von Zweigbergk faced a bet of 7,300 by Guy Ohayon and called to fully expect a queen for top pair as per table chat. Ohayon however only showed {A-Spades}{4-Spades} for second-bottom pair and von Zweigbergk turned over the winning {9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} for a pair of fives.

"I am the worst," the Finn added after sipping on his beer, and has joined the top stacks in level eight.

Givony Flushes Yakimov

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

A loud celebration came from table five and the cards of Plamen Yakimov were already in the muck while Tom Givony doubled. His {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} were still visible and the double up was for just 9,400 with most of the stack already in prior until the {K-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Spades} turn.

Yakimov had put Givony at risk with {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts} only to see the {3-Spades} on the river complete a four-card flush for the player from Israel.

No Help for Sas

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

While the hand-for-hand on the money bubble of the €2,200 High Roller continues without any major action for the past 20 minutes, the €1,100 Main Event has entered level nine and several players ran out of chips. Among them were Toni Englund, Ioana Silvana Apostol and Gusti Adrian Sas.

Sas was all in for around 18,000 with the {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and Ohana Shlomo called with the superior stack and {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}. The board came {10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and that was it for Sas.

Poor Flops Incredibly Well to Bust Dubonnet

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Samy Dubonnet
Samy Dubonnet

After a raise and a three-bet by Yzhak Poor Rafi out of the big blind, initial raiser Samy Dubonnet moved all in for 40,000 and was quickly called by initial raiser Dubonnet.

Samy Dubonnet: {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}
Rafi Yzhak Poor: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}

The magic flop of {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts} gave Rafi the nut flush, and the {Q-Spades} turn and {4-Spades} river brought no runner runner miracle anymore.
