Jamie Gold raised to 1,200 from middle position and Andre Akkari three-bet to 2,700 from the hijack. Another player on the button four-bet to 6,200 and Gold folded. Akkari called.

The flop came {9-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and Akkari check-called a bet of 3,100 to see the {j-Diamonds} turn. Akkari chose to lead out this time with a bet of 4,200. The player on the button called again and the river was the {q-Spades}.

Akkari decided to pull the trigger and put his opponent all in for effectively his last 10,500. The player on the button didn't take too long to call, showing down {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}.

Akkari showed {4-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for two pair and took it all down, knocking his opponent out of the tournament in the process.

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante
Kristen Bicknell
Kristen Bicknell

Kristen Bicknell opened under the gun to 900 and it folded to the small blind player who completed his option, thinking Bicknell only limped, before making the call to 900.

The flop appeared {2-Hearts}{4-Spades}{q-Spades} and the small blind player check-called Bicknell's continuation bet of 600. The turn fell a {10-Hearts} and the same action happened, this time for 2,800.

The river brought the {9-Spades} and the small blind bet 5,000. After some thought, Bicknell mucked.

"Good fold", said Bicknell's opponent, showing {k-Spades}{2-Spades} for the flush.

Peters Under Pressure

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante

Tobias Peters was put under pressure by another player at his table.

There was about 25,000 in the middle and the board read {j-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{5-Hearts}{4-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and Peters had checked from the big blind to his opponent, who then bet enough to put Peters all in for effectively his last 17,000.

The Dutch player thought about it for a while before he let go of his hand.

Players are still coming into the tournament and a couple of the latest at the tables are Robin Ylitalo and Blair Hinkle.

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante

The player under the gun bet 1,000 and it folded to Sylvain Loosli in the big blind who made the call.

The flop came {a-Clubs}{10-Spades}{k-Diamonds} and Lossli check-called for another 1,000. The turn {10-Hearts} brought no betting action.

A {q-Spades} appeared on the river and Loosli bet 1,600, quickly called by his opponent holding {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds} for two pair. Loosli turned over {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades} for the straight and took down the pot.
