Kyriakides Gets it All In Preflop

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Miltiadis Kyriakides has already notched up an impressive $1.4 million in tournament cashes. Not only that, but he already got third in Event #57: $1,600 Pot-Limit Omaha just a few weeks ago. He is one to watch in this tournament and he just earned more than a double in a three-way all-in preflop situation.

Kyriakides held {q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and had the nuts with a straight on {8-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{9-Spades}{6-Hearts}. It got a double from one opponent and busted another.

Hamlet Wins at Showdown

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

There was no betting on the turn on the {5-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} board but there was already a significant amount in the pot. On the {9-Diamonds} river, following a check, Nathan Hamlet bet 7,000 for value and got a call. His opponent mucked when he saw Hamlet had the nuts with {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{j-Clubs}{10-Hearts}.

Watson Takes it Down By Barrelling

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

There were several players in the hand, staring at a {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{q-Clubs} flop.

It checked to Andrew Watson and he bet 3,000 into a pot of 5,000 and got just one caller.

On the {9-Clubs} turn, he put 5,000 over the line, which was enough to push his opponent off and he has moved up to more than double starting stack.

More Than 1,000 Registered So Far

Level 7 : 400/800, 0 ante

Registrations for flight Day 1e have exceeded 1,000 now. That has added 50 percent to the total number of runners across all Day 1s. There is still half an hour or so of late registration available too. After that, the total number of runners will be confirmed.

Three-Way All-in on the Flop

Level 7 : 400/800, 0 ante

There were six players still in on a flop that read {9-Spades}{5-Hearts}{4-Clubs} and the pot was 4,800.

Five players checked and Antonios Onoufriou bet pot, which prompted two all-ins. With everyone else passing, they turned over their cards.

Antonios Onoufriou: {a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Serban Tomuta: {q-Spades}{10-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}
Player 3: {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}

It was top two pair and a gutshot versus top pair and an open-ended draw versus overcards and back-door straight and flush draws.

The {2-Spades} turn gave Onoufriou a wheel straight and Tomuta a flush draw, with no change for the other player. The {4-Spades} river gave Tomuta a flush and he collected the main pot, whilst Onoufriou won 2,100 from the side pot and one player hit the rail.

Joe Sigafoos: {10-Clubs}{7-Spades} {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}

Sigafoos announced a set and both of his opponents mucked their hands, leaving him to scoop the chips.
