More O'Kearney Madness; Jorstad Doubles

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Espen Uhlen Jorstad
Espen Uhlen Jorstad

Espen Uhlen Jorstad doubled after getting his stack in with {A-Hearts}{A-Spades} against the {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} of Silviu Baltateanu and the board came {J-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{3-Hearts}{7-Hearts}.

On the feature table, the Dara O'Kearney madness continued when he doubled through Adrian-Sorel State with {K-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} versus {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}, the board came {Q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{8-Clubs}.

State busted right after with another bad beat story, as his {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} for fewer than two big blinds came short against Alan Widmann's {7-Spades}{7-Hearts} on a board of {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{8-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{7-Clubs}.

In the meanwhile, Jean-Serge Baril had also ran out of chips on the outer tables. He jammed with {K-Hearts}{9-Spades} against the {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts} of Denis Simionel and found no help on a board of {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}. Aku Joentausta has also vanished from the feature table and O'Kearney now has almost 20 big blinds and eyes another pay jump.

Second Pay Jump for O'Kearney; Murariu Eliminated

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Dan Murariu
Dan Murariu

Mihnea Potcoava was eliminated on the feature table and Dan Murariu got his last nine big blinds in first to act with {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} on the outer tables only to see big stack Cristian Grecu call with {Q-Hearts}{7-Hearts} in the big blinds. An {A-}{9-}{9-} flop provided an additional threat for Murariu and he fell behind when a queen appeared on the turn, the river was a blank.

There are only 31 players remaining and that means Dara O'Kearney has made the second pay jump.

Joostens and Lunde Depart

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Eirik Lunde
Eirik Lunde

Lennaert Joostens lost a flip with ace-king against the {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} of Marius Gicovanu and became the next casualty.

He was followed by Eirik Lunde, who ran out of chips on the feature table. Lunde with {J-Spades}{10-Spades} clashed with Bogdan Sovaiala, who held {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}. Lunde flopped two pair on {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, but Sovaiala had the nut straight already. The {2-Hearts} turn and {K-Spades} river failed to keep Lunde in the running and then there were 29 players remaining.

Dara O'Kearney
Dara O'Kearney

The legendary short stack grind of Dara O'Kearney has come to an end. Coming into the day with 47 players remaining and 3,000 in chips, he made two pay jumps and just busted in 29th place.

O'Kearney in the big blind jammed with {A-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} into the {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} of Denis Simionel and the board came {K-Spades}{J-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{Q-Spades} to send the Irishman to the rail. New chip leader on the feature table is Razvan Sabau, who had the most chips at the start of the day already.

Judet Wins a Big One

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Toni Judet and Stefan Drusca headed into a four-bet pot in a battle hijack versus cutoff and the former made it 145,000 to pick up a call by Drusca. They checked the {Q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Spades} flop and the {6-Spades} turn. On the {2-Spades} river, Judet bet 130,000 and Drusca spent a long time in the think tank.

Judet was about to call the clock on him and that's when Drusca called. Judet showed {A-Spades}{K-Hearts} for the nut flush and Drusca mucked {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

Ropert Takes From Shahar

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Corentin Ropert raised it up first to act and was called by Cristian Grecu in the cutoff and Ran Shahar in the small blind. The trio checked the {A-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts} flop and Shahar took the betting lead on the {9-Hearts} turn, only Ropert called.

After the {A-Hearts} river, Shahar bet 42,000 and Ropert raised to 120,000, which Shahar called. Ropert turned over {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds} for trips aces and that won the pot.

Suciu Eliminated by Jorstad

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Down to around 15 big blinds, Nicolae Suciu jammed the button and Espen Uhlen Jorstad checked his cards in the big blind, then snap-called right away.

Nicolae Suciu: {A-Clubs}{4-Spades}
Espen Uhlen Jorstad: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

The kicker played a crucial role on the board {10-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs} to eliminate Suciu in 27th place.
