Abdelkader Benhalimam Eliminated

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Raoul Refos opened for 12,000 from the hijack and Abdelkader Benhalimam in the cutoff shoved all in for 61,000. Big blind Barrie Pietersz over shoved for just a 1,000 more, he pushed 62,000 to the middle. Raoul Refos wasn't too excited by all of this, and folded {A-Spades}{J-Spades} after some thinking.

Abdelkader Benhalimam: {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Barrie Pietersz: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}

The flop came {8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and Benhalimam asked the dealer for an ace. He didn't get the ace, but the {6-Hearts} on the turn did bring him some additional outs. "Alléé! Alléé!" he shouted. To no avail, the {2-Diamonds} on the river did pair him, but it wasn't good enough to stay alive.

Boeken Hits the Rail in 30th Place

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Noah Boeken
Noah Boeken

Noah Boeken was just knocked out and he told us what happened. Fredrik Andersson raised before the flop and Boeken decided to play back at him by three-betting in position.

Andersson made the call and the flop brought {10-}{7-}{3-} with one club.

On the flop Andersson check-called 25,000 and the turn was the {7-Clubs}.

This time the action was checked and the river was the {6-Clubs}. Andersson put Boeken all in for about 80,000 total, and the Dutchman called with {4-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for a rivered flush.

Andersson had {3-}{3-} for a full house, and Boeken shook his head as he exited the tournament area.
