Feature Table Action

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Lisa “STPeach” Vannatta
Lisa “STPeach” Vannatta

Karol Wojciechowski ran with his last 28,600 and {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts} into the {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} of John Byrne and found no help on a board of {K-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}.

In real time, another two players already busted in Michael Conaty and Alexandru Cinca.

Conaty had a rough setup against none other than Lisa “STPeach” Vannatta and rivered a full house with {Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} only for Vannatta to show {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades} for the superior full house on a board of {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

Soon after, Quentin Lecomte took out Alexandru Cinca when his {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs} faced {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and the board came {K-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{2-Clubs} to give Lecomte a winning flush.

Rorholt Runs Out of Chips

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The field has been reduced to the last 91 hopefuls and Camilla Rorholt is no longer among them. After sending Toni Ojala to the rail, she ran with queens into kings to lose a big portion of her stack and was just now all in for a mere 7,500 on the cutoff. All three players behind her called and Peter Cahill on the button bet the {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop for 7,500 to isolate.

Camilla Rorholt: {J-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Peter Cahill: {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

"Now I need a queen," the Norwegian said and saw the board complete with the {K-Diamonds} turn and {6-Hearts} river.

Mullin Busts Kneepkens

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Emmett Mullin raised the cutoff and Benny Kneepkens splashed his chips in for what appeared to be 27,000. Christopher Heidelbacher in the small blind tanked, but folded, and Mullin snap-called.

"Do you have ace-king?" Kneepkens asked and Mullin shook his head, turned over {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}. Kneepkens had two outs with his {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} and didn't get there on a board of {J-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{6-Hearts}.

Kron Busts Leckey and Wiborg Amid Confusion

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Andreas Wiborg
Andreas Wiborg

Paul Leckey had lost a big pot and was left with 400 chips, forced all in from the small blind and not in his seat when the cards were back in the air. When he had arrived to his seat, there had been significant action already as 2018 Unibet Open London champion Andreas Wiborg moved all in for 13,100 in the cutoff and was called by Julien Kron on the button.

Leckey, however, had not been dealt any cards and the floorman was called to determine the proper proceeding. Since Leckey would have been forced all in and his cards mucked already at that point, it was ruled as a live hand and Leckey's elimination was confirmed prior to the showdown. Only then, Wiborg and Kron tabled their cards.

Andreas Wiborg: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Julien Kron: {A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}

The board came {J-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and Kron rivered a flush to eliminate Wiborg.

Leckey had already returned with a new ticket in the hand, a glass of wine in the other, and headed over to the turbo heat 1c.
