Shen Flushes Up His Stack

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Shucheng Shen
Shucheng Shen

Alexis Longhe had been building his stack for the past hour and nearly doubled the initial 30,000 in chips that all participants received. He just suffered a minor setback when he battled with Shucheng Shen. On the river of a {9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} board, Longhe checked and then instantly called a bet worth 6,000 into 15,000.

"Flush, ace high," Shen announced and rolled over the {a-Clubs}{j-Spades} for the nut flush on a paired board. Longhe shrugged as he exposed the {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for turned trips that was no good anymore.

Zvezdan Tadic raised to 800 and received two callers including Frank Op de Woerd on the button. Eszter Fabian then three-bet to 4,100 in the small blind and Tadic was the only caller. The {a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop brought a bet worth 4,400 by Fabian and Tadic double-checked his cards before sending them into the muck.

Fabian raked in the pot with a nod and smile on the face.

Drummond Doubles Through Grujic

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

On a heads-up turn of {7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} board, Marco Grujic looked up the all-in by Robert Drummond for 12,700 with the {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for the nut flush draw. However, he had zero equity as Drummond's {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} had already locked up the double with nines full to make the {2-Spades} river a formality.

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Sergio Benso
Sergio Benso

Sergio Benso was spotted with a gutsy move in a battle cutoff versus small blind when facing Alex Hendriks. The latter check-called the {q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Spades} turn for 8,000 and checked the {10-Hearts} river. Benso pushed for around 11,000 and was snap-called by Hendriks to reveal the {7-Hearts}{5-Clubs} for seven-high with a straight flush blocker.

Hendriks tabled the {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} for the ace-high flush and scored the knockout.

Jenkins Jams Into Dray

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

In a battle cutoff versus button with 6,500 to the {9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop, Samuel Dray checked his option and Andrew Jenkins bet 2,300. Dray check-raised to 6,300 and Jenkins gave it some consideration before he tossed in the additional chips. On the Qs] turn, Dray glanced on his stack before cutting out a bet worth 7,500 and that sent Jenkins into a brief ringer.

One minute passed before the American vaulted forward in his seat to see how many chips Dray had behind. The shove for around 23,000 followed and Dray got out of the way.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

A seat open was announced over on table five and it was Andrew Dickinson who raked in the pot, while [Removed:402] was spotted on the way out. The board was showing {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{9-Spades}{10-Spades} and the {q-Spades}{8-Spades} of Dickinson had made a runner runner flush to deal the final blow.
