Schwippert Pulls Further Ahead

Level 35 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

(Blinds 5,000/10,000)

Julien Martini raised to 30,000 and Jan-Eric Schwippert called.

The flop fell {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and Schwippert checked, Martini bet 43,000 and Schwippert check-raised all in to force a fold from Martini.

Soon after Schwippert limped in and Martini checked. The {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flop was checked through, Martini also checked the {5-Diamonds} turn. Schwippert bet 10,000 and was check-raised to 41,000, which Martini called. The {3-Clubs} river completed the board and Martini bet 84,000. Schwippert gave it some thought and called to see Martini turn over {10-Spades}{9-Hearts} for a busted gutshot. Schwippert had that beat with the {10-Clubs}{5-Hearts} and claimed another big pot to leave Martini on 9 big blinds.

Schwippert and Martini Still Battling

Level 35 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

(Blinds 4,000/8,000)

Julien Martini raised 20,000 and Jan-Eric Schwippert called to see a flop of {J-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}. Schwippert checked and called a bet of 8,000 by Martini, the {4-Spades} appeared on the turn. Both players checked to the {J-Diamonds} on the river and Schwippert bet 52,000. Martini called and mucked, with the cards of Schwippert rushed in and only the {3-Spades} being visible.

After being short when the duo was sent to the main feature table, Schwippert has gained a decent lead after 32 hands.

Morris Emerges Victorious Against McAulay

Level 34 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
Nicolai Morris
Nicolai Morris

Daniel McAulay briefly seized the chip lead against Nicolai Morris, but an all-in preflop confrontation between the two gave Morris a large lead once again.

A series of raises between the two led to Morris all in for 318,400 on the button with {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} against McAulay with {A-}{8-} in the big blind. The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts}{J-Spades}{K-Clubs}, and Morris was back in a comfortable lead.

A few hands later, McAulay limped the button and Morris popped it to 60,000 from the big blind. McAulay reraised all in for about 220,000 and Morris called with {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}, racing with McAulay's {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}.

The flop came down {Q-Hearts}{10-Spades}{9-Clubs}, giving Morris the nut straight to take a commaning lead in the hand. The {4-Hearts} turn left McAulay drawing dead, rendering the {A-Hearts} river moot.

Morris advanced to the Round of 8 where he will play Juan Pardo Dominguez.

Level 34 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Jason Mo just got eliminated and Juan Pardo Dominguez was kind enough to fill in the details of how the betting action went down preflop.

Mo limped the button and Pardo Dominguez raised to 43,000. Mo then pushed all in for 270,000 and Pardo Dominguez made the call.

Juan Pardo Dominguez: {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Jason Mo: {A-Clubs}{4-Spades}

The board ran out {2-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and Mo was eliminated, while Pardo Dominguez secures at least the min-cash of $31,086.

Jan-Eric Schwippert
Jan-Eric Schwippert

(Blinds 3,000/6,000)

Jan-Eric Schwippert limped in and Julien Martini raised to 24,000. Schwippert limp-shoved for 217,000 for the second time in the last few minutes and Martini gave it some thought before calling.

Jan-Eric Schwippert: {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
Julien Martini: {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

On the {J-Spades}{2-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop, Schwippert said "no heart" but the {Q-Hearts} on the turn brought the flush draw for Martini. Schwippert had hit his queen, though, and the {7-Spades} on the river was a blank to let Schwippert double for the third time and jump into the lead.
