Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Michael Jansen has been busy at work on Table 30. First he faded Dmitri Lesnoy's 15-card draw on a flop of {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{6-Spades}

{10-Spades}

. Lesnoy's {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

failed to improve against Jansen's top pair, {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

, after all the chips went in. The board bricked out running threes {3-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

{3-Clubs}

to eliminate Lesnoy.

A few minutes later Jansen's pocket nines, {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{9-Spades}

, went to war on the flop against short-stacked Roberto Machado's {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

. Each player caught a piece of the {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

{9-Clubs}

flop. Machado had a combination straight-and-flush draw against Jansen's middle set. Again Jansen faded all the cards he needed to fade, with harmless {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

and

{3-Spades}

on theturn and river.

Machado is eliminated just short of the money.
