Hagen Scores Another Knockout as Ikonen Misses the Money

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Andreas Hagen raised to 14,000 in the hijack. The action folded to Pekka Ikonen on the button, and he moved all-.in for 97,000 total. Hagen gave it some consideration and ultimately opted for the call.

Pekka Ikonen: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Andreaas Hagen: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

The {q-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} flop kept Ikonen alive but it was all over on the {9-Clubs} turn, making the {10-Diamonds} river a formality. Down to 49 players, the bubble is imminent as the top 47 finishers will earn a share of the prize pool.

Dudakov Falls Short of the Money

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Andreas Hagen jammed with the {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} into the {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} of Dimitri Dudakov. The board ran out {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and that spelled the end for Dudakov.

Alfredo Cuti then survived an all-in against two opponents when his forced all-in with {8-Hearts}{2-Hearts} made the best pair.

Heinsvig Jams Into Wheatley

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Over on the feature table, a larger pot emerged right after the break with the {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} for Raymond Wheatley and the {a-Spades}{k-Hearts} of Kenneth Heinsvig. The {k-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Clubs} river had already reeled in plenty of chips until then.

Heinsvig jammed for 65,000 when checked to and Wheatley instantly gasped "fuck me" before talking through some hands. "King jack? You don't have ace king ..." Wheatley whispered and then asked for an exact count again.

Wheatley, a student of Unibet ambassador Dara O'Kearney, mulled it over for a while and eventually laid down his hand.

Demircan Jams Into De Almeida

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Serdar Demircan raised with the {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and Pierre De Almeida called with the {q-Hearts}{10-Spades}. Both checked the {q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop and De Almeida then bet the {5-Spades} turn for 45,000. Demircan jammed it in and De Almeida sigh-folded after plenty of table banter between the duo, exposing the queen for the top pair.

Second Break of the Day

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Only 51 players remain and they have been sent into the second scheduled 20-minute break of the day. With several short stacks, the money bubble will be looming once the action recommences for the fifth level of the day.

Miracle Escape for Kettunen, Dickinson Flipped Out

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Andrew Dickinson
Andrew Dickinson

In a three-way all-in, Julius Kettunen was at risk for 61,000 on the outer tables and the fellow short stacks Madis Ormisson and Domenico Gala also got the chips into the middle.

Julius Kettunen: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Domenico Gala: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Madis Ormisson: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}

The board ran out {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and Kettunen tripled up while Gala doubled the 8,000 he had behind versus Ormisson, who was left with two chips only. Gala then doubled right after to preserve his chances at making the money.

In the meanwhile, Andrew Dickinson was knocked out after a clash with Angelo Vietti. He had jammed for 93,000 in the cutoff and Vietti reshove don the button.

Andrew Dickinson: {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
Angelo Vietti: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds} board improved Vietti to the superior flush.

Persent Back on Track

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jon Per Persent was involved in a min-raised pot to the {q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop on which he bet 10,000. No call followed and the Norwegian raked in the pot to pull back above more than half a million.

In the meanwhile, Tomasz Brzezinski was eliminated and Eszter Fabian followed suit on the feature table to reduce the field to 52 contenders.
