Boyko Doubles; Another Three Bust

Christian Zetzsche

Level 21 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Yuriy Boyko raised to 75,000 on the button and then called a pot-sized three-bet by Joshua Adkins in the big blind. Adkins jammed the 10♥3♠2♠ flop and Boyko reluctantly called all-in for 415,000 after more than three minutes.

Yuriy Boyko: A♥10♣8♣7♥ All in
Joshua Adkins: A♣A♦K♣J♣

The Q♥ turn and J♥ river gave Boyko a winning flush for the double.

Alec Weller then took on chip leader Jonathan Bowers, who bet the pot on the 9♣4♦4♠Q♣8♦ river. The tank-call of Weller followed and he was shown the A♠8♥8♠3♥ for a rivered full house. Weller was disgusted and murmured "I knew you had bullshit" before tossing his cards towards the muck.

They were briefly exposed for what appeared to be a queen-high straight.

Phuoc Vo and Tim Grau also bowed out in quick succession to reduce the field to the final five tables.

Level 21 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Manh Nguyen doubled through Michael Mizrachi to cut into the shorter stack of the latter, who then got it in against Krzysztof Magott soon after in a duel cutoff versus button.

Krzysztof Magott: A♦Q♥Q♠10♣ All in
Michael Mizrachi: K♦Q♣J♠J♦

The board ran out 7♠6♣4♣9♠4♠ and the queens held for Magott to double for 315,000. Mizrachi was left with one big blind and busted right after.

Jerry Wong then followed from the same table with Filippos Stavrakis claiming his stack.

Level 21 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Karim Lehoussine was huffing and puffing as he had done late last night when he got the short stack in and just did so again against Nitesh Rawtani.

Karim Lehoussine: A♦A♠Q♣10♦ All in
Nitesh Rawtani: A♣J♣7♥5♥

The board ran out 10♣9♠8♣2♥4♥ and Rawtani flopped a straight for the knockout.

Level 21 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

With two players seeing a board of 3♥10♦7♠ and about 500,000 in the middle, Justin Smith moved all in for 310,000 and was called by Vasil Medarov who had a covering stack.

Justin Smith: K♣K♦Q♣9♣ All in
Vasil Medarov: Q♠Q♦J♠9♥

The rest of the board ran out 4♦J♦. Smith was good at showdown with his pair of kings and secured a full double up through Medarov.

Elsewhere in the tournament area, Daniel Demicki was recently eliminated.

Player	Chips	Progress
Justin Smith	1,150,000 570,000	570,000
Vasil Medarov	925,000 560,000	560,000

Marcotte First to Fall

Level 21 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Kevin Marcotte ran into the aces of Kabeelan Rajamurthy when a flopped set held up and that ensured the pay jump for all remaining players.

In the meanwhile, Alec Weller raised to 75,000 and James Carroll defended the big blind. They checked to the J♣3♥2♣A♥2♦ river on which Carroll's bet took it down uncontested.
