Pateychuk Sent to the Showers After Brutal River

Tyler Boyer

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Stanislav Barshak opened all in for 285,000 from under the gun. It folded to the small blind Neil Warren who called, before the big bland Andrey Pateychuk three-bet all in for 1,200,000. Warren eventually made the call, saying "lets run it" putting Barshak and Pateychuk at risk.

Stanislav Barshak: A♦9♦ All in
Andrey Pateychuk: K♠K♥ All in
Neil Warren: 7♥7♦

Pateychuk was in a great position with his pocket kings, but things got interesting after the 5♥4♦8♦ flop, giving Barshak a flush draw, and Warren a straight draw.

The turn was a safe one for Pateychuk when the 2♣ came, but the river was a disaster as the 6♦ completed the board. The six gave Barshak the ace high flush to take the side pot and triple up. But even worse for Pateychuk, Warren improved to a straight to take down the kings to win a large sidepot, and eliminate him from the tournament.

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

On a flop of 4♦A♣5♣, David Stamm bet 150,000 from early position. Stanislav Barshak raised to 325,000 from the big blind and Stamm called it.

The turn was the Q♠. Barshak quickly led with an all in jam. Stamm took several moments to consider it before he released his cards.

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Joseph Carden raised to 100,000 from early position. When it folded to Lander Lijo in the cutoff, he three-bet all in for 540,000. It folded back to Carden, and he made the call.

Lander Lijo: A♦Q♣ All in
Joseph Carden: A♣J♥

Earlier in the level it was Carden all in and at risk with ace-queen versus the ace-jack of Lijo. But now the roles are reversed, but the result are still the same as the ace queen remained the best hand on the 7♥10♠3♥5♣6♦ board, to give Lijo the double up.

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

Lyudmil Ivanov went all in under the gun seven-handed. He had 285,000 chips, under five big blinds. Maxx Coleman called on the button, all other players folded.

Lyudmil Ivanov: K♣J♠ All in
Maxx Coleman: Q♦Q♣

The flop was unlucky for Coleman and lucky for Ivanov, it came 7♦K♠5♦. Coleman did not improve on the 2♥ turn and 4♦ river and Ivanov doubled up.

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

The flop read 8♠7♦9♠. Najeem Ajez bet 440,000 as Ivan Uzunov was all in already. Stanislav Barshak called the bet,

The turn was the 2♦. Ajez jammed and Barshak folded.

Ivan Uzunov: 7♥5♥ All in
Najeem Ajez: A♦8♦

Uzuniv started to get up to leave but the river was the 7♣ to dramatically keep him alive.

But he would not stay alive for long as a couple of hands later he was eliminated with 6x6x against the AxAx of Neil Warren.

Sami Bechahed: Q♦10♥ All in
Nikolay Yosifov: A♠7♠

Bechahed would need to improve to stay in the tournament but when the board ran out K♥4♣3♣9♦2♦ he was eliminated, as Yosifov ace high was still best.
