De Zutter Going Upwards

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Alexandre De Zutter has started well into the first level of the day, three-betting an open raise with {3-Clubs} {4-Clubs} and finding a flop of {A-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {3-Spades}. A continuation bet of the Frenchman was check-called and the {8-Hearts} turn de Zutter pushed.

Warrington is Lost

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Ben Warrington had defended his big blind against the raise of Juan Riera and then bet the {2-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {7-Spades} turn for 19,000. Riera called and the {6-Clubs} on the river left the Brit confused. He chatted with his opponent in English and then said "now I am not sure what to do" before surrendering.

Warrington ended up being unable to beat the {8-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} of the Spaniard and dropped to 20 big blinds for the upcoming level.

Paul Francois Tedeschi

Soufiane Abbouti raised to 4,200 from early position and called the three-bet of Paul Francois Tedeschi to 12,000 out of the small blind. On a flop of {K-Spades} {J-Clubs} {3-Clubs}, the Frenchman fired a continuation bet of 12,500 and was called before checking the {3-Spades} turn.

Abbouti announced all in with the superior stack and Tedeschi snap-called for his last 55,000 with {A-Diamonds} {A-Spades}. The Belgian was way behind with {A-Clubs} {K-Hearts} but scored the lucky punch thanks to the {K-Clubs} river.

Makiadi Busts Sitbon and Darcourt

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Guillaume Darcourt
Guillaume Darcourt

Manuel Makiadi is the new chip leader after winning three big pots in a row, eliminating Guillaume Darcourt and Julien Sitbon as a result. In the first hand, Makiadi three-bet with {6-Hearts} {3-Hearts} and flopped a straight. Darcourt paid off two barrels on an eight-high board with {A-} {K-} and lost more than half his stack.

Then, Julien Sitbon raised to 4,000 and called the three-bet of Makiadi to 12,000, heading to a jack-high flop. Sitbon shoved with pocket nines and Makiadi scored the knockout with pocket aces.

Fast forward a few more minutes and Makiadi raised with {10-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} and received three callers to see a flop of {3-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds}. Darcourt put the remainder on his stack into {A-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} but no more diamond showed up.

Warrington Loses Flip to Riera

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Ben Warrington and Juan Riera had already tangled in a pot not long ago and seem to know each other from the poker tables. The Brit was down to 20 big blinds and got those in with {J-} {J-}. Riera held {A-} {Q-} and spiked an ace on the turn to claim the pot.
