Angelov Gets Another Knockout

David Salituro

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

Boris Angelov and Troy McLean went to a flop of 5♥6♥J♠ where McLean got his last 350,000 in the middle from the big blind and Angelov put him at risk on the button.

Troy McLean: 10♥3♥ All in
Boris Angelov: A♦A♥

McLean had a flush draw against Angelov's aces as the A♠ turn improved Angelov to a set. The J♣ turn gave Angelov a full house and McLean was sent to the rail.

"He doesn't need any more chips," a tablemate said as Angelov raked in the pot.

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

Francis Cagney moved all in for his last 165,000 from the small blind and was called by Joshua Remitio in the big blind.

Francis Cagney: 9♦3♠ All in
Joshua Remitio: 10♦2♦

Remitio was a favorite with the suited doyle, that is until the flop came 8♠9♥7♠. Remitio could not make a straight or better pair on either the K♠ turn or Q♠ as Cagney doubled up with a small flush to get some chips back.

Robert Bickley defended the big blind against Kai Zheng and checked the Q♦4♠2♥ flop, then check-raised to 105,000. Zheng clicked it back to 210,000 only for Bickley to move all-in. Zheng sighed and called after a few seconds of consideration.

Robert Bickley: K♣Q♥ All in
Kai Zheng: A♦Q♣

The kicker played as the 3♦ turn and 2♠ river sent the former WSOP Europe Main Event finalist to the payout desk.

Wysocki Makes an Insane Fold

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Kai Cocklin

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

After just winning a flip, Szymon Wysocki just made a ridiculous fold to save himself some chips.

Wysocki raised from under the gun to 55,000 and Elton Beebe three-bet the minimum to 85,000.

"Is that a legal raise?" asked Wysocki. It was legal and once it got back to the Polish player, he made the call.

The action was checked to the river on the 7♣5♥A♦2♦K♣ board where Wysocki bet 140,000, then Beebe raised to around 400,000. Wysocki, at absolute lightning speed, snap-folded 5♦5♣ face up for a set. The table seemed shocked, but when Beebe turned over K♥K♠ for a rivered, bigger set, it made Wysocki look like a genius.

"What chance do we have when people are not paying off with sets?" commented Tony Dunst.

Player	Chips	Progress
Szymon Wysocki	3,500,000 200,000	200,000
Elton Beebe	1,400,000 560,000	560,000

End of the Road for Eichele

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

Robert Eichele had committed the entirety of his short stack to the pot from late position and was at risk against Dimitri Joubert in the small blind.

Robert Eichele: A♣7♠ All in
Dimitri Joubert: A♠K♠

The end was in sight for Eichele, already a significant dog preflop, once the first three community cards came 4♠10♦2♠ to remove one of his three immediate outs. The 3♣ turn brought some faint hope in the form of a gutshot to a chop but Joubert instead made the nuts on the Q♠ river to felt Eichele.

Dimitri Joubert	2,150,000 175,000	175,000

Taha Maruf on the button found himself at risk for 360,000 against Sergei Kislinskii in the big blind.

Taha Maruf: A♠K♣ All in
Sergei Kislinskii: 7♦7♣

Maruf flopped trips on Q♠A♦A♥8♦9♥ and doubled up.

Wysocki Wins a Flip to Eliminate Cox

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

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.

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

Around 400,000 was already in the pot as Bin Weng and Craig Robertson went heads-up to the river on a board of 2♥8♦K♦Q♥2♦.

Weng then bet 225,000 from the hijack and Robertson tanked for a few minutes before calling on the button. Weng turned over A♣A♠ and Robertson mucked.

Player	Chips	Progress
Bin Weng	1,100,000 445,000	445,000
Craig Robertson	250,000 590,000	590,000
