Ivey Falls to Kabrhel in Silence

Adam Lamers

Level 16 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel raised to 240,000 from under the gun and Phil Ivey shoved all in for around 740,000 in the big blind. Kabrhel quickly called without any speech from the master himself.

Phil Ivey: 4♠4♣ All in
Martin Kabrhel: 8♠8♦

Ivey was in need of a two-outer to keep his run in the $250,000 Super High Roller alive. The board ran out K♦6♠2♦9♥7♣ and Ivey was unable to connect with the board. Kabrhel collected the pot in silence for the first time today and Ivey exited the room.

Level 16 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Jonathan Jaffe opened to 230,000 on the button and Martin Kabrhel three-bet to 850,000 in the small blind. Jaffe four-bet jammed a stack of around 3,500,000 and Kabrhel went in the tank as he asked for a count and reviewed his stack. After about a minute, he called.

Jonathan Jaffe: A♠5♥ All in
Martin Kabrhel: A♣K♠

Jaffe was dominated and couldn't improve as the board ran out 7♣7♠8♠10♥6♠ to mark his elimination. Meanwhile, Brynn Kenney criticized Kabrhel for what he thought was a "slow roll."

"You think it was a slow roll?" asked Kabrhel.

"Are you going to fold?" asked Kenney.

"I was counting my stack," Kabrhel replied.

The Kabrhel Show Continues as Negreanu Fights Back

Level 16 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel opened the button to 325,000 and Chris Brewer called from the big blind.

Brewer check-called a min-bet of 160,000 on the K♠Q♠8♦ flop before the 9♦ turn and K♣ river checked through. Brewer tabled A♠7♠ which was no good against the A♣J♠ of Kabrhel as he dragged a small one.

The next hand, Kabrhel opened the cutoff to 325,000 before it folded to Daniel Negreanu in the big blind.

Fed up with the antics of Kabrhel, Negreanu decided to take a stand, literally, as he stood up from his chair and announced, "One million, bitch!" for a three-bet to 1,000,000.

Kabrhel did not take so kindly to Negreanu's energized response and complained to the floor, "If I do this I get four round penalty," before ultimately folding.

Vieira Makes the Wrong River Call vs Lichtenberger

Tim Baker

Level 16 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Andrew Lichtenberger raised to 350,000 from the cutoff and Joao Vieira called from the big blind.

Both players checked the 6♣4♦4♥ flop to see the 10♥ appear on the turn. Vieira checked and Lichtenberger bet 325,000. Vieira called.

After Vieira checked the 3♥ river, Lichtenberger jammed for Vieira's remaining 1,400,000 or so. Vieira went into the tank for quite some time, burning through some of his time bank cards. Eventually, Vieira tossed in the call.

Lichtenberger revealed K♠10♦ for a pair of tens, which was good to win the pot and bust Vieira, who had 5♠3♠ for a rivered pair of treys.

Andrew Lichtenberger raised it up from middle position and Jeremy Ausmus three-bet shoved all in for 3,590,000 in the big blind. Lichtenberger quickly called and the cards were on their backs.

Jeremy Ausmus: K♠Q♦ All in
Andrew Lichtenberger: A♥Q♥

The board ran out 6♣5♦2♣4♠5♠ and Ausmus' king-high was not going to cut it as he was eliminated shy of the money on Day 2.

Level 17 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Orpen Kisacikoglu and Seth Davies limped in from middle position and Christoph Vogelsang shoved all in for 3,025,000 on the button. Alex Foxen also stuck in the last of his 2,375,000 chips from the small blind. Kisacikoglu folded but Davies confirmed the counts and then called.

Alex Foxen: A♦K♦ All in
Christoph Vogelsang: 7♥7♦ All in
Seth Davies: 10♣10♦

A massive three-way all in broke after what started out as a limped pot. The flop came J♠4♣3♥ and Davies was still in front with the best pair. The 9♥ on the turn changed nothing but the A♠ hit the river and Foxen survived with a triple up. Davies had Vogelsang covered in the side pot to send the cloaked German to the rail.

Level 17 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

David Peters opened the button to 400,000 before Alexandros Theologis jammed for 2,325,000 from the big blind, and Peters snap-called.

Alexandros Theologis: J♦10♦ All in
David Peters: J♠J♣

Theologis was in terrible shape against the jacks of Peters as the A♥4♥4♦ flop gave him a backdoor flush draw. However, the turn was the 2♥ and Theologis was drawing dead to the 6♣ river as the field has been reduced to its final 12.

Thomas Boivin opened to 400,000 on the button and Andrew Lichtenberger three-bet to 1,400,000 in the small blind. Boivin clicked it back to 3,200,000 and Lichtenberger used a time bank before five-bet jamming as Boivin snap-called with 8,450,000.

Thomas Boivin: A♥K♥ All in
Andrew Lichtenberger: A♠4♦

Boivin had his opponent outkicked and the flop landed K♦A♦5♦ to give him two pair while keeping Lichtenberger alive with a flush draw. The 3♣ turn gave him Wheel outs, but the 8♥ river bricked off to give Boivin a big double.

The turn came the 8♥ and Negreanu checked again. Kenney bet 850,000, and was met by a check-jam from Negreanu for about 4,000,000. Kenney quickly folded, and Negreanu pulled in the pot.

Thomas Boivin raised to 450,000 in the cutoff and Orpen Kisacikoglu three-bet to 2,500,000, leaving just 200,000 chips behind. Boivin announced all in and Kisacikoglu called to put the cards face up.

Orpen Kisacikoglu: 4♣4♦ All in
Thomas Boivin: 9♠9♥

The flop came 9♣3♠2♣ and Boivin took a commanding lead with a set of nines. The 3♣ on the turn left Kisacikoglu drawing dead to the 3♥ on the river. The final 11 players will now be hand-for-hand on the money bubble.
