Dzivielevski Back Up on Secondary Feature

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Yuri Dzivielevski raised to 125,000 and was called only by Michael Kapernaros in the big blind. They checked the {q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flop and Kapernaros bet the {5-Clubs} turn for 75,000, which Dzivielevski called.

Kapernaros bet big on the {q-Spades} river for 375,000 and Dzivielevski looked him up to get shown {5-}{4-}, which he had beat with the {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}.

Pidun Doubles Through Smaron

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Kenny Smaron raised it up from middle position and Thomer Pidun defended from the big blind. The flop came {j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and Pidun checked to Smaron who tossed in a continuation bet. Pidun check-raised all in for 1,060,000 and Smaron called.

Thomer Pidun: {k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Kenny Smaron: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Smaron flopped top pair but Pidun had a flush draw. The {9-Diamonds} landed on the turn and Pidun completed his flush, although it wasn't over yet. Pidun dodged another diamond with the {q-Spades} on the river and secured himself a double up.

Sly Disappointed Not to Be Called

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Ivonir Bento checked in early position with {j-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{8-Hearts} on the felt. There was about 1 million in the pot and Christopher Sly shoved all in from the button. The count was just a hair over 1.5 million and Bento went deep enough into the tank that someone called a clock. He let his time go all the way down without acting, so his cards were forfeit.

"Ten-nine?" he asked.

"I'll show," Sly said, flicking {2-Spades}{2-Hearts} into the middle for a set.

Stewart Departs From the Feature Table; Kim Above 10 Million

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Jiwoon Kim
Jiwoon Kim

Jarred Solomon opened to 130,000 and Jiwoon Kim called on the button, as did Antonio Esfandiari in the small blind. Casey Stewart in the big blind raised to 660,000 and that was called by Kim only.

They checked through a flop of {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}{10-Spades} and the {2-Diamonds} turn saw a check of Stewart, a bet of 600,000 by Kim and a call.

On the {8-Spades} river, Stewart check-called another bet of 800,000 and Kim tabled {j-Spades}{9-Hearts} for a queen-high straight to win the pot.

Shortly after, Stewart three-bet all in for 1,200,000 in the small blind and initial raiser Esfandiari made the call.

Casey Stewart: {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Antonio Esfandiari: {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

The {8-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop gave Esfandiari top set and the {4-Spades} turn and {2-Clubs} river were a formality.

Right after, Kim amped up the aggression some more and four-bet to 1,000,000 versus Esfandiari, who folded and was shown an ace-king.

Power Forces Out Dzivielevski

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Mihai Manole raised to 140,000 and was called by Yuri Dzivielevski in the cutoff and Chad Power in the small blind. The {7-Spades}{6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop was checked and the {8-Clubs} followed on the turn.

The action checked to Dzivielevski who bet 200,000 and Power raised it up to 555,000, which forced a fold from Manole. Dzivielevski stuck around to see the {4-Spades} river and Power bet 775,000 to send the Brasilian deep into the think tank. Eventually, Dzivielevski folded and the pot was shipped to Power.
