Level 6 : 150/300, 50 ante
Amnon Filippi
Amnon Filippi

Amnon Filippi raised under the gun and Manig Loeser moved all in. Joao Vieira raised, leaving himself just 1,600 behind.

The action folded back around to Filippi. "Bad timing for you buddy," he said, raising all in and Vieira called.

Manig Loeser: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Joao Vieira: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Amnon Filippi: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

Filippi had the chance to knock out two players, and there was no help for either Loeser or Vieira on the {q-}{7-}{3-}{8-}{6-} run out.

Bart Lybaert
Bart Lybaert

Belgian player Bart Lybaert is sitting on a stack of 105,000. In one hand, that he explained to us, he raised to 500 from under the gun and got two callers in the cutoff and big blind. The flop came {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and it checked to Lybaert who bet 1,000. The big blind was the only caller, and they check-called another bet, this time for 3,600 on the {8-} turn.

The river was a {5-} and the big blind checked for a third time. Lybaert bet 13,500 and his opponent called. Lybaert turned over {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a flopped flush, and his opponent mucked.

Small Pot for Klatt; Gross Eliminated

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

Andreas Klatt opened to 450 from under the gun and both blinds called. They each checked down the {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}{8-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{7-Spades} board, and Klatt won the pot with {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}

Meanwhile, with 7,000 chips in the middle on a {2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} board, Luis Calvo had put Jeff Gross all in. Gross let out a loud sigh before calling.

Calvo showed {a-Clubs}{j-Spades} for two pair, jacks and deuces, and Gross mucked {7-Spades}{7-Hearts} face up and was eliminated.

Kuo Keeps Building

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

Kitty Kuo opened to 500 under the gun and was called by the small blind. The big blind made it 2,100 and only Kuo called.

The flop was {10-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and action escalated fast. The big blind bet 1,550, Kuo raised to 4,300 and instantly called a shove of around 10,000.

Kuo tabled {6-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for the flopped straight and was facing {a-Diamonds}{7-Spades}. The {k-Hearts} fell on the turn, followed by the {5-Spades} river to give Kuo the win.
