Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Walan Kite moved all in out of the hijack position and a player at the cutoff immediately called to put Kite at risk.

The players on the button and the two blinds folded, and the cards were tabled.

Walan Kite: K♥Q♥ All in
Opponent: J♥J♣

“Classic race,” Kite said.

The dealer fanned 4♥3♠A♣ on the flop, keeping Kite’s opponent in the lead. A blank hit the turn, and Kite got up out of his seat to pack his belongings, appearing resigned to his exit.

Not so fast, though, as the K♦ on the river gave Kite a pair of kings and the winning hand.

“Brutal river card,” a player at the table said as Kite retook his seat.

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Player in the early position opened to 165,000 and got called by Ray St James in the cutoff, the button and table chip-leader Fuat Temiz in the small blind. The big blind had a very short stack of just over 100,000 chips and just called all in.

The flop was 8♦8♣6♦ and after a check from Temiz, early position continued for 300,000. St Jacques raised to 700,000, getting Temiz to fold, as well as the early position.

Big blind: K♣4♣
Ray St Jacques: Ax8x

St Jacques caught the 6♣ on the turn for the full house, leaving the big blind drawing dead and taking down a decent-sized pot.

Player	Chips	Progress
Fuat Temiz	7,700,000 3,800,000	3,800,000
Ray St Jacques	5,200,000 1,000,000	1,000,000

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

Middle Position: A♠8♥ All in
Jeremiah Fitzpatrick: 6♣6♦

The flop came Q♦J♥7♣ with neither player improving, the brick 2♥ turn and 4♣ river meant Fitzpatrick held with pocket sixes and middle position busted out of the tournament, with around 190 players remaining.

Garibaldi Rivers the Nuts

Herbie Teope

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

Juan Garibaldi raised to 205,000 in early position, and then watched as action folded to a player in late position.

The player in late position responded to Garibaldi’s raise by moving all in for his remaining 1,075,000.

The players at the button and blinds got out of the way, putting action back on Garibaldi, who asked for a count. The dealer confirmed the count, and Garibaldi, who started the hand with 2,200,000 called to put his opponent at risk.

All-In Player: 4♠4♣ All in
Juan Garibaldi: K♠Q♦

The dealer fanned 10♣J♥2♠ on the board, giving Garibaldi a gutshot straight draw.

The 3♣ on the turn kept Garibaldi’s opponent in the lead, but the tables were turned when A♣ arrived on the river to give Garibadi a straight and a knockout blow.

“The nuts,” a player at the table commented.
