Kitai Takes Big Hit

Davidi Kitai and Peter Gilmore got heads up in a pot where there was an open raise and a call preflop. The board came {9-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {10-Spades} and they got it all in. Kitai held {A-} {10-} and Gilmore held {Q-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}. Gilmore was at risk for his tournament life and the turn and river came {K-Spades} {10-Diamonds}. Gilmore hit his straight and Kitai sent a few stacks of chips over -- 86,700 to be exact.

Action is Sloooooooowwwwwwing

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Action has slowed down quite bit in the last half hour of play. With blinds at 2,000/4,000 most of the field is very deep stacked. Most of micro stacks busted before dinner or just after. The over/under number for players remaining at the end of Day 2 was at 12 at the start of the day. It seems as if the over will be the smart bet.

Medic Needs A Medic

Nenad Medic
Nenad Medic

Nenad Medic and his super short stack are out of the tournament.

A player in middle position raised it up to 9,000 and Medic went all in for his last 12,500. The small blind however, re-raised to 25,000 and the initial raiser moved all in and got an insta-call from the small blind.

Small Blind: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Medic: {j-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Middle Position: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

The board ran out {8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{6-Spades}{4-Spades} Medic hit the rail, and the small blind player won the hand and scored a double up.

Chip Leader Takes A Hit

We came into this hand on a flop of {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{k-Spades} when our chip leader Christian Stricker Kohl bet 40,000 from the small blind. Vladimir Mefodichev called from the cutoff and the two saw the turn {9-Spades}

Kohl ramped it up this time and made a bet of 100,000. Mefodichev tanked for a while and then pushed two big stacks of yellow and a few oranges out to make the call.

On the river {5-Spades}, Kohl almost seemingly gave up and checked. Mefodichev moved all in and Kohl mucked.

After the hand, Mefodichev has 490,000 and Kohl is down to 370,000

Well, Not Too Much Momentum

A player under the gun opened for 8,000 and got two calls from Valdemar Kwaysser and Ionel Anton. The flop came {A-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {4-Hearts} and the UTG player bet out 9,000, Kwaysser called and Anton called. The turn came {5-Spades}, UTG checked, Kwaysser checked and Anton bet out 22,000. The UTG player folded and Kwaysser called. The river came {K-Hearts}, Kwaysser checked and Anton bet 22,000 again. Kwaysser called and Anton tabled {5-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} for a turned set. Kwaysser stared at the cards as if he couldn't believe it, but he smiled and mucked his cards.
