Karolis Sereika opened to 2,500 from the button before Serhii Holodiuk three-bet to 20,000, leaving roughly 8,000 behind. Dyland Linde, who slightly covered Holodiuk, moved all in from the big blind, forcing a fold from Sereika. Holodiuk made the call to put himself at risk.
Serhii Holodiuk: 7♦7♥
Dylan Linde: K♥K♠
The board ran out 2♣5♠A♣J♠2♠. Linde held with the bigger pocket pair to score the knockout and secure nearly a full double up.
A large pot was brewing between Robert Worrix and Dan Stavila with the board showing 9♠9♣2♥J♥J♣. Some 65,000 were in the middle and Worrix had faced the all-in of Stavila with slightly more than the starting stack behind.
They went back and forth in table chat and ultimately the clock was called on Worrix, who tank-folded when the thirty seconds ran down.
"I miss-click-called preflop," Stavila admitted but didn't show any of his cards.
Level: 8
Blinds: 600/1,200
Ante: 1,200
With three players seeing a board of 7♣5♦3♣ and roughly 7,000 in the middle, Ivan Deyra checked from middle position and Adrian Mateos bet 2,500 from the hijack. Jonathan Little then raised to 7,500 from the cutoff, forcing a fold from Deyra. Mateos raised to 19,000 and Little quickly folded.
Kazuhiko Yotsushika raised to 2,500 and received two callers. Poker vlogger Alexander Seibt then squeezed to 11,000 in the cutoff and Yotsushika squeezed to 37,500 thereafter. Both initial preflop callers between them folded and Seibt came along for the ride to the Q♣8♣6♥ flop.
Yotsushika continued for 30,000 and Seibt folded after some consideration. As the Japanese all but flashed the card, as remarked by another player at the table, he then exposed the A♠ before raking in the pot.
Kristen Foxen raised to 2,300 from late position before Marko Vuzem three-bet to 7,000 from the cutoff in the next seat over.
Franco Spitale shoved from the blinds and Foxen got out of the way before Vuzem called. Action was heads up and Spitale was at risk.
Franco Spitale: J♠J♥
Marko Vuzem: K♦K♠
The board ran out 4♦10♥2♥2♣A♥ and Vuzem held on with kings to continue his torrid run in the early levels of Day 1b.
Sosia Jiang raised to 2,100 from under the gun and Jacopo Achille called in the big blind. Both players checked the Q♣J♠9♠ flop before Achille bet the 6♣ turn for 2,200, Jiang called. On the 7♥ river, they checked again and Achille tabled the K♥7♦. Jiang had that beat with the A♦9♦ to rake in the pot.
The New Zealander is one of the big stacks so far and the same applies for Drew O'Connell one seat over.
Bob Mather was out of position in a heads-up pot against Martins Adeniya on a board of 3♦3♠4♥9♠.
Mather checked on the turn and Adeniya bet 4,000. Mather called. Mather checked again on the 8♥ river and Adeniya checked back.
Mather showed a pair of nines with 10♣9♥ and it was good to win the pot.
On the tail end of a heads-up pot to the 10♣4♣3♦J♥5♥ river, Konstantinos Nanos bet 7,000. Jhon Diaz called and was shown the K♦8♦ for a bluff by Nanos, which he had beat with the J♠8♠ for a pair of jacks.
The table features further notables in Chris Oliver, Diego Ventura, as well as Michael Rodrigues.
