Souki Picks Up Rockets to Bust Mota

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Rafael Mota was all in for around 2,000,000 and up against Philippe Souki.

Rafael Mota: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Philippe Souki: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

The {q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{k-Clubs} flop gave Mota a pair of queens and the {j-Spades} turn outs to a chop, but the {k-Hearts} on the river sealed his elimination.

"Nice call. That's not what you wanted to see, face cards on the board," a tablemate told Souki as he stacked up nearly 10,000,000.

Ruff Suffers Rough Runout

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Igor Ioffe moved all in from middle position and Stuart Ruff from the cutoff called with the shorter stack to put his tournament life on the line.

Stuart Ruff: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Igor Ioffe: {a-Spades}{6-Spades}

Ruff was significantly ahead and remained so after the {3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop and {9-Hearts} turn. The {6-Hearts} river, however, was a dagger to Ruff, dealing a death blow to his hopes of main event glory.

Miller Snaps Off Jorstad

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Espen Jorstad raised to 210,000 from under the gun and received a call from Jordyn Miller in middle position.

Both players checked the {4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flop before Jorstad bet out 225,000 on the {3-Spades} turn.

Miller called as they saw the {j-Spades} on the river. Jorstad bet another 200,000 and Miller quickly threw in a call.

Jorstad showed {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}, but Miller had him beat with {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} to take the pot.

Sewnig Eliminated by Hannawa

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

In a typical preflop all-in contest, a classic race unfolded between two players with near even stack sizes as Daniel Sewnig was up against Danny Hannawa.

Daniel Sewnig: {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Danny Hannawa: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

The {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} flop kept Sewnig in the lead but Hannawa improved on the {k-Diamonds} turn, then held on the blank {7-Hearts} river. Both stacks were counted and Sewnig's 2.7 million was covered by just over one big blind.

Guenni Falls to Levine

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Mikael Guenni returned from the break as one of the short stacks and found himself all in for just under 1,000,000. He was called in two spots by Jon Gisler and David Levine.

The flop came {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and Gisler checked to Levine who tossed in a bet of 425,000. Gisler quickly folded and the remaining two hands were tabled.

Mikael Guenni: {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
David Levine: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}

Guenni was in search of one of the two remaining threes in the deck. The {4-Spades}, {8-Hearts} runout provided no help and Guenni was eliminated.

Chechin Doubles Off Livshitz

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Serge Chechin moved all in for 1,800,000 from the hijack. On the button, Gabi Livshitz re-shoved as Adam Demersseman in the big blind thought it over for a moment before folding.

Serge Chechin: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Gabi Livshitz: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

Chechin got help immediately on the {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} flop, hitting two pair, and stayed ahead as the board ran out {6-Clubs}{2-Hearts}.

"You almost got more. If he folds I was ready to snap," Demersseman said following the hand.
