Kerkeni Cut Back Down

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Mohamed Kerkeni raised to 5,000 preflop from the cutoff and was called by Stan Solomon in the big blind. The latter check-called a bet of 5,000 on the {J-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop and check-called all in for 25,000 on the {J-Spades} turn.

Stan Solomon: {10-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Mohamed Kerkeni: {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}

The {7-Diamonds} on the river completed a straight for Solomon and former big stack Kerkeni has taken a big hit since coming back from the dinner break.

O'Kearney Busts Petcu; Gicovanu Ousts Heinze

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Dara O'Kearney
Dara O'Kearney

Within a few minutes and on different tables, €2,200 High Roller champion Olvedo Heinze was sent to the rail while Unibet Poker ambassador Dara O'Kearney earned a massive boost to his stack when busting Elvis Petcu.

Heinze was all in before the flop with {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and Marius Gicovanu called with the {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}. The {7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} flop was quite deadly for Heinze and there was no runner runner miracle on the {2-Diamonds} turn and {A-Spades} river.

Petcu got his stack in with pocket jacks and O'Kearney had him dominated with the {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}. The board came {A-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}.

Markov Sends Dan to the Rail

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

On the four-way flop of {K-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, the action checked to Cristian Dan in the cutoff and he bet 5,600. Dan Murariu on the button and the small blind called before Anton Markov in the big blind check-raised to 20,000. Dan took some time before moving all in for 35,000 and only Markov called it off for the following showdown.

Cristian Dan: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}
Anton Markov: {K-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

The {9-Clubs} turn instantly left Dan drawing dead to make the {4-Clubs} river a formality, and the table broke right after.

The board was already completed and showed {8-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{J-Hearts} and Hendrik Koops pushed all in for 23,400 into a pot of around 29,000. Christopher Heidelbacher didn't snap-call but eventually obliged and was shown {10-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for a bluff.

Heidelbacher had that beat with {Q-Clubs}{6-Hearts} and scooped the pot.

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

On the four-way flop of {7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, Razvan Cirstian moved all in for 21,400 and Ionel Tanase called in the small blind while Aage Spets folded in the big blind.

White and O'Kearney Up

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

While Sophia White chipped up after dinner, Dara O'Kearney did so before everyone headed to the buffet. According to the Irishman, he faced a limper and raised it up with the {A-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. A short stack with nine big blinds called and jammed a {A-}{5-}{4-}{A-} turn with {Q-}{2-} for a gutshot. O'Kearney held up with his trips and headed to six digits.
