Minkin Makes Some More

Level 6 : 150/300, 50 ante
Kelly Minkin
Kelly Minkin

It seems as if Kelly Minkin's stack is only ever growing. Minkin has 20 series cashes under her belt and is looking to add another in this event. Most recently, she won a pot on {8-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}.

Having chosen to delay her continuation until the turn, the 1,000 bet was enough to take it down.

David Pham

David Pham has just been eliminated when he ran his {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} into the {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts} of his opponent. The board came {q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{X-}{X-} and Pham quickly made his way out of the tournament area.

Hallaert Takes Two

Level 6 : 150/300, 50 ante
Kenny Hallaert

The board read {8-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{4-Spades} and the player in the big blind had gone all in. The player in mid-position contemplated his options but decided to also shove. Kenny Hallaert was sitting on the button and snap-called.

The player in the big blind held {9-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for the turned flush but the player in mid-position had {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for the higher flush. But Hallaert had them both beat with {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} as he had flopped the full house to take both players out of the running.

Lybaert Looking For Another Good Day

Level 6 : 150/300, 50 ante
Bart Lybaert
Bart Lybaert

Bart Lybaert finished in third place yesterday during THE MARATHON for $290,315 and has taken his seat here at the tables again.

The player in the under-the-gun position raised to 1,000 and Lybaert three-bet to 2,500 from the late position. The player in the cutoff shoved for 6,600. The initial raiser folded and Lybaert called.

Cutoff: {K-Spades}{J-Spades}
Bart Lybaert: {2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}

The flop came {8-Hearts}{3-Spades}{7-Spades} to give Lybaert's opponent a flush draw. The {8-Diamonds} on the turn and the {6-Diamonds} on the river didn't help him though, as he was eliminated (for now).

The board read {4-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}, Jamie Kerstetter had just checked her big blind and the player in the cutoff made it 1,300. Kerstetter raised to 3,300 and her opponent folded after thinking about it for a while. Kerstetter showed {4-Spades}{4-Clubs} for the turned quad fours.

A few hands later on the same table, the board read {5-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and Jonathan Abdellatif check-raised to 3,300 when his opponent had bet 1,000. His opponent also gave up. Abdellatif didn't show his hole cards though.

Also seated at the same table are Mathijs Storms, Jonas Lauck, and Sebastian Pauli.
