Mrakes Sends Ulrich to the Rail

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante

Table short stack Sebastian Ulrich got the last few chips in after the {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{a-Spades} turn and was shown the bad news. While his {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for trips aces were a decent hand, he needed a ten to chop as Michal Mrakes already had the full house with the {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}. The {9-Spades} on the river only provided an inferior full house to Ulrich and he headed out of the tournament area.

Nagygyorgy Busts Melchers With a "Nice Call"

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante
Tibor Nagygyörgy
Tibor Nagygyörgy

Just before the blinds went up, a larger pot developed between Dorian Melchers on the button and Tibor Nagygyörgy in the cutoff. The board showed {a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{q-Hearts} and Nagygyörgy bet 15,000 for his table neighbour to shove for 67,800 in total.

Nagygyörgy was sent into the tank and the clock was called on him. With five seconds remaining, the Hungarian called and Melchers rolled over the {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} for a pair of queens only. Nagygyörgy had that beat with the {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and won the big pot, which Silviu Baltateanu acknowledged with a "nice call".

Cieslik Eliminated With Premium Pair

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante
Roman Cieslik
Roman Cieslik

Around 28,000 were in the middle to the {10-Spades}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs}{10-Clubs} turn and Roman Cieslik checked out of the small blind. Symeon Alexandridis pushed in the hijack with the slightly superior stack and that sent Cieslik into the tank. He opted to call it off and once Alexandridis rolled over the {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for trips tens, Cieslik sighed "every single fuckin time" before exposing his {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}.

No miracle happened on the {8-Hearts} river and both stacks were counted. Alexandridis had 44,900 at his disposal and that covered the 41,000 of Cieslik.

Spoddig Jams Up His Stack Against Truong

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante

With around 40,000 in the middle on a board of {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{a-Spades}, Sammy Truong was tempted to look up the shove by Carlos Spoddig for 57,900. He went into the tank and then asked the one question most poker players love. "Will you show if I fold?" to which Spoddig replied "of course not."

Truong then folded and exposed his {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}, while Spoddig cheekily rolled over one of his cards to expose the {6-Diamonds}.

Gur Gets Zhong's Stack

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante
Zhong Chen
Zhong Chen

Dutch cash game player and King's regular Zhong Chen was all-in and at risk before the flop against the table big stack Onur Gur. It was a typical coin flip that decided over the fate of Chen in the following showdown.

Zhong Chen: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Onur Gur: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

The {k-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} board delivered not one but two overcards and Chen headed to the rail.

Karaarslan Doubles Through Wieser

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante
Feyzullah Karaarslan
Feyzullah Karaarslan

Heads-up to the {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Clubs} turn, Matthias Wieser pushed all-in from the hijack and the champion of the last WSOPC Main Event at King's Resort, Feyzullah Karaarslan, instantly called.

"Do you have the queen?" Wieser immediately sighed and tabled {8-Spades}{7-Spades} for a flush draw. That had no equity as Karaarslan indeed flipped over the {a-Spades}{q-Clubs} for the full house, which made the {9-Hearts} river a formality. Karaarslan doubled for 26,200 and the table broke right after with Wieser looking for his new table while holding a very short stack.
