Level 5 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Christoph Vogelsang
Christoph Vogelsang

Christoph Vogelsang opened to 13,000 from under the gun, with action folding to Orpen Kisacikoglu, who was on the button. The entrepeneur three-bet to 39,000 which folded out the blinds. Vogelsang made it 97,000 and Kisacikoglu called.

Vogelsang continued for 30,000 on the AA9 flop and was called. The J turn then checked through to the J river.

Vogelsang, with 269,000, checked and Kisacikoglu fired out 300,000.

Vogelsang, with his tournament life on the line, thought for a moment and called.

Kisacikoglu showed 1010 which had been counterfeited by the board. Vogelsang tabled KK for aces and kings to scoop in the double up.

Level 5 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Alex Foxen
Alex Foxen

The four-way action was picked up on the flop of 973 where Barak Wisbrod and Vinny Lingham checked from the small and big blind, Alex Foxen bet 15,000 into a pot of roughly 60,000 from early position, and Adrian Mateos raised to 55,000 sitting on the button. Both of the blinds folded and Foxen made the call.

The turn came the 2 and Foxen check-called the 126,000 chip bet from Mateos.

On the 8 river, Foxen checked once again, and Mateos slid his remaining 333,000 chips into the middle. Foxen made the call after some deliberation. Mateos rolled KQ over for king-high, while Foxen showed a pair of nines with K9.

Jensen Puts the Hammer Down

Level 5 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Sean Winter opened to 14,000 in middle position, and only Gregory Jensen, on the button, called.

Winter continued for a bet of 28,000 on the J88 flop and Jensen called once again.

The turn 10 was of no concern to Winter as he fired out again, this time for a more hefty 119,000. Undeterred, Jensen called again.

Winter kept up the aggression on the A river, betting 85,000. This is when Jensen sprang into action. After assembling the correct amount of chips to call, he took a moment, then announced he was all in for roughly 300,000.

Winter wasted little time in folding, and Jensen pulled in the pot.

Cooler Has Ponakovs On the Ropes; Mateos Delivers the Knockout

Level 5 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Vinny Lingham and Aleksejs Ponakovs were locked in battle, with a full board showing Q9J3x4x and over 300,000 in the middle.

Ponakovs had moved the rest of his stack into the middle, save for one 1,000 chip and action was on Lingham. He didn't take long to call, turning over 108 for the flopped straight.

Ponakovs turned over QQ to show that he had flopped top set in what was a nasty cooler.

The very next hand Ponakovs was all in for his remaining 1,000 versus Adrian Mateos.

Aleksejs Ponakovs: 97 All in
Adrian Mateos: KQ

The board ran out queen-high, sending Ponakovs to the rail.
