Three players were involved on a {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop with action on Silviu Nemes. The Romanian pro bet 3,000, Ghattas Kortas made it 7,800 on the button, an unknown player three-bet shoved around 40,000, Nemes folded and Kortas called 20,000 effectively all in.

Kortas held {8-Spades}{7-Spades} and had a ton of outs against his opponent's {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. The {K-Spades} on the turn was one of them and the {8-Clubs} on the river kept him in front.

Schinkel and McMillan Chop the No-Outer

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Scott McMillan raised from early position from a short stack. Action folded to Maurice Schinkel in the small blind, who moved all in with his last 17 big blinds. 2011 Unibet Open Riga champion Peter Harkes came over the top all-in from the big blind and McMillan called as well.

McMillan and Schinkel both held {10-}{10-}, while Harkes just needed to hit with {A-}{Q-} to knock out both players. The board ran out {2-}{4-}{5-}{J-}{6-} and all players stayed in.
