Level 28 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante
Chance Kornuth
Chance Kornuth

Chance Kornuth was down early but started to work his way back to even in the match vs Dario Sammartino. However, after a couple of preflop raises, the two players found themselves all in and it was Kornuth at risk for around 760,000.

Chance Kornuth: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Dario Sammartino: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

"Ahhh, I knew you were strong," Kornuth said when the cards were tabled. The board ran out {k-Spades}{8-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{10-Clubs} which provided no help to Kornuth who was ousted in the fourth round.

Jonathan Jaffe
Jonathan Jaffe

Dan Smith opened to 35,000, Jonathan Jaffe three-bet to 140,000, and Smith shoved. Jaffe called for his stack of approximately 850,000.

Jonathan Jaffe: {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
Dan Smith: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}

The two were flipping, and the {8-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop kept Jaffe ahead. The {4-Diamonds} turn changed nothing, but the {k-Hearts} spiked the river to improve Smith and eliminate Jaffe.

Jaffe receives $75,045 for his fourth-round exit, while Dan Smith will face off against Dario Sammartino tomorrow in the semifinals.

Winter Calls Vogelsang's Hand

Level 29 : 10,000/15,000, 0 ante

Blinds: 6,000/12,000

Sean Winter limped in on the button and Christoph Vogelsang checked his option. The flop came {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and both players checked to the {a-Hearts} on the turn.

Vogelsang checked again and Winter threw in a bet of 19,000 which Vogelsang called. The river was the {6-Clubs} and Vogelsang checked for the third time. Winter splashed in a bet of 78,000 and Vogelsang thought for a few minutes before finally calling.

"Queen-seven is good," Winter said as he tabled {4-Spades}{3-Clubs}. Indeed Vogelsang tabled {q-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for just a pair of queens to win the hand.

Vogelsang Extends his Lead

Level 29 : 10,000/15,000, 0 ante

Picking up the action on the turn with the board reading {j-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, Sean Winter had a bet of 190,000 in front of him with 130,000 in the pot. Christoph Vogelsang took a couple of minutes before sticking in a call.

The river brought the {q-Clubs} and Vogelsang tanked for nearly five minutes before placing a bet of 400,000. Winter looked frustrated as he squirmed in his seat while Vogelsang turtled on the table.

"You think I was good?" Winter said to PokerNews as he showed his {7-Spades}{6-Clubs} before eventually folding.

"You really f***ed me there," Winter continued to Vogelsang.
