Coelho Wakes Up with Kings; Apicella Departs

Calum Grant

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Diogo Coelho opened to 50,000 from middle position before Benjamin Horgan three-bety to 190,000 from the big blind. Coelho then moved all in for 680,000, and Horgan called after some time in the tank.

Diogo Coelho: K♥K♣ All in
Benjamin Horgan: 10♦10♠

Horgan was left with one out after the A♥6♥4♥ flop, with Coelho holding out on the 7♣ turn and 4♦ river to collect the double up.

While that hand played out, Austin Apicella was flushed out by Gabriel Moura, whose K♦5♦ rivered a flush on the 3♠3♦6♦J♠9♦ after the chips went in on the flop.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

James Moran raised to 60,000 under the gun before Andrew Hanna three-bet to 175,000 in the hijack. Moran called and they saw a flop of 8♣5♣J♣.

Moran led out for 200,000 and Hanna called. The turn was the K♥ and Moran moved all in for 900,000. Hanna snap-called and turned over K♦K♠ for top set.

"I'm drawing dead," Moran said, showing A♦J♥. The inconsequential river was the Q♠ and Moran stopped to snap a photo of the board.

"First hand," he added as he waited for his payout slip.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Oren Haziza raised from under the gun and then called the shove by Paul Cicero on the button.

Paul Cicero: Q♠Q♦ All in
Oren Haziza: A♣9♣

The 9♦4♠2♠ flop gave Haziza a pair and while the 7♦ turn was a brick, the 9♠ river was not as Haziza improved to trips.

"It felt like it was a good spot for him to steal," Haziza shrugged in table chat.

Dmytro Bystrovzorov was all in for 810,000 from a middle position and got a call from Ren Lin in the cutoff.

Dmytro Bystrovzorov: 10♥10♦ All in
Ren Lin: A♦K♣

Bystrovzorov was ahead but still stood from the table when the flop came 4♥4♣J♦.

A A♣ turn put Lin ahead and the 5♥ river sealed the pot for Lin as Bystrovzorov was eliminated from the tournement.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Danny Chang moved all in for around 250,000 from middle position and Boris Angelov called in the small blind.

Danny Chang: 4♠4♣ All in
Boris Angelov: 10♥10♦

Chang was dominated by Angelov's tens and found no help on the 5♥Q♠J♥9♣3♦ board as he became an early casualty on Day 5.

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Picking up the action partway through the hand, Franco Bucca on the button was all in and at risk against Antonio Payne in the cutoff.

Franco Bucca: Q♣Q♦ All in
Antonio Payne: A♠A♦

Bucca had run his ladies right into rockets and was shot down after the 7♥10♦3♠10♥J♣ runout brought no salvation to send him packing early in the day.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Hamid Toghyan raised for Daniel Jones to make it 130,000 to go. It folded back to Toghyan and he clicked it up to 360,000 and then called all-in when Jones pushed with the covering seven-figure stack.

Hamid Toghyan: K♦K♠ All in
Daniel Jones: A♣A♠

"What is going on here? What is going on?" a stunned and flabbergasted Toghyan said as he was on the bad end of a cooler between the two premium pairs.

There was no escaping on the Q♦8♣7♠5♦3♣ runout and Toghyan went from middle of the pack to the payout desk.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Christopher Ewing moved all in for 155,000 from the cutoff and Fernando Rodriguez re-jammed for 290,000 from the button. Phil Ivey called from the big blind.

Christopher Ewing: A♠2♥ All in
Fernando Rodriguez: 3♠3♥ All in
Phil Ivey: K♥K♣

The flop came K♠8♣Q♣ giving Ivey a set of kings.

The A♦ turn and the J♠ river wasn’t enough to save the at-risk players as they stood from the table, having just given Ivey a big chip up.

Wysocki Wins a Flip to Eliminate Cox

Kai Cocklin

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Szymon Wysocki raised from early position to 55,000 and Donavan Cox three-bet from middle position to 210,000. When it got back to Wysocki, he shoved, and Cox eventually called off his stack of around 1,000,000 chips.

Donavan Cox: A♠K♣ All in
Szymon Wysocki: J♦J♠

During his decision to call off his stack, Cox had mentioned that he felt like they both had the same hand, but that wasn't the case. It was a flip that went Wysocki's way as the 10♥6♥5♦3♥4♦ runout kept his pocket jacks in the lead, which sent Cox to the rail.
