Kos Cracks Kings

Ollie Garland

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Sebastian Kos raised from under the gun, Sebastien Lesoif three-bet jammed for 28,000 from the cutoff and Kos called.

Sebastien Lesoif: K♠K♥ All in
Sebastian Kos: 5♣5♥

Lesoif was in a commanding position until the 5♦J♦Q♥ flop reversed their fates. The 3♦ turn and 8♥ river changed nothing; Kos's flopped set cracked kings to send Lesoif to the rail.

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Olivier Fede raised to 6,000 from the cutoff, the button called and Gyula Rapolti three-bet to 17,500, from the small blind. David Camara Espeso, in the big blind, thought for some time before calling off the bet for his effective stack of 11,000. Fede moved all in for 106,000, the button folded and Rapolti went deep into the tank, eventually making the call.

David Camara Espeso: J♥6♦ All in
Olivier Fede: A♥K♥ All in
Gyula Rapolti: 10♦10♥

The 10♠9♣8♥ flop put Rapolti in a commanding lead for the side pot, while Espeso was now open-ended. The 7♦ completed Espeso's straight draw and the Q♣ river confirmed his triple up. Rapolti's set ensured Fede's departure as well as the huge side pot.

Malo Latinois: 8♣6♥ All in
Yeshayahu Kriss: Q♠Q♦

The river landed the 2♥; Kriss made the correct call to send Latinois to the rail.

Yurii Poienko: A♥J♦

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Gaelle Baumann raised from under the gun, recving calls from Mohamed Aissaoui, in the hijack, and Davidi Kitai, in the big blind.

The action checked to Baumann, who bet out 4,000 on the 9♣2♠8♠ flop. Aissaoui called and Kitai folded.

The 4♣ turn saw Baumann size up to 11,000. Aissaoui was undeterred.

The J♦ river slowed down Baumann with a check. Aissaoui placed a bet large enough to put Baumann all in for her remaining 16,000 and Baumann snap-called for her tournament life.

Gaelle Baumann: 10♠10♣ All in
Mohamed Aissaoui: J♠9♥

Baumann was almost in the clear to gain three streets of value, but she fell behind Aissaoui's rivered two pair, sending her to the rail.

Player	Chips	Progress
Mohamed Aissaoui	240,000 240,000	240,000
Davidi Kitai	23,500 51,500	51,500
