Diamonds for Devilfish

On a {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop, David Ulliott checked to his lone opponent, Matthias Neu, who bet. Then Devilfish check-shoved on him for a total of 117,500. Neu called with {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a flush. Too bad for him, Devilfish too had a flush, the nut flush to be exact, with {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. The turn and river were both queens, but no one had a pair so the three queens didn't change anything. Ulliott scooped the pot and chipped up to 300,000. "Cooler, huh?" said Devilfish. "Pretty much," agreed Neu, who was down to 208,000.

Charder Sniffs Out a Bluff

Anthony Spinella raised to 10,000 on the button, and Dmitry Motorov called out of the small blind. Then in the big blind, Christian Harder squeezed to 36,500. Both players called to see the flop - {j-Spades}{9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. After all that preflop aggression, action checked around postflop. The {a-Hearts} turn got things going again. Motorov checked, and Charder bet 16,500, about one seventh of the pot. Spinella folded, and Motorov called. The {3-Hearts} on the river completed a flush draw, and Motorov took the opportunity to fire 80,000 at the pot.

Charder tanked for several minutes, uttering a frustrated curse or two. Finally, he convinced himself to make the call. Motorov could only show {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds} for just a pair of ducks. And Charder was rewarded handsomely for his bold call with {a-Clubs}{4-Hearts}.

Motorov fell to 272,000, while Charder moved up to 390,000.

De Paz Done For

Jose De Paz moved all in under the gun for around 30,000, and Evan Panesis looked him up on the button. Jose was racing for his tournament life with {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} against Evan's {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}. The flop was bad news for him, coming {a-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Spades}. The {10-Diamonds} turn and {4-Hearts} river changed nothing, and De Paz was eliminated. Panesis is now sitting behind 340,000.

Behling Busted

Nico Behling got 134,700 chips in pre with {a-Spades}{q-Clubs} against the pocket kings of Samlane Phomveha. The {q-Spades}{j-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop gave him some outs, but the running fives that came next meant Phomveha had a better two pair. Behling was left with 1,000 chips, which he disposed of the next hand. Phomeveha is up to 270,000.

Ellis Out

There was over 100,000 in the pot and the board was {6-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{9-Spades} when Helen Ellis was all in and at risk against Paul Sheng.

Sheng caught a straight on the turn with {k-Hearts}{8-Clubs} and Ellis was behind with a flopped set of sixes. The board didn't pair on the river, and Ellis hit the rail.

Sheng is now our massive chip leader with 790,000 chips.
