Tang Spikes the Turn to Double Through Petrangelo

Level 9 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Nick Petrangelo opened the cutoff to 65,000 and was called by Danny Tang in the small blind.

On the 864 flop, Petrangelo continued for 70,000 before Tang check-raised to 225,000. Petrangelo immediately inquired about the amount of chips Tang had behind.

"620 back," responded Tang, to which Petrangelo quickly announced all-in for 845,000 effective as the covering stack, and Tang called.

"I have middle set," joked Tang as he only showed the 6 first.

Danny Tang: 65 All in
Nick Petrangelo: A8

Petrangelo held top pair against the middle pair, flush draw, and gutter of Tang who retained a flurry of outs. No waiting was required on the 10 turn as Petrangelo was drawing dead to the 2 river and Tang collected his double.

Ponakovs Falls to Kisacikoglu

Level 9 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Orpen Kisacikoglu opened the button before Aleksejs Ponakovs jammed for 290,000 from the small blind. Kisacikoglu called.

Aleksejs Ponakovs: A9 All in
Orpen Kisacikoglu: Q10

Ponakovs was the slight favorite to double as the J109 flop gave Kisacikoglu middle pair and an open-ender against the bottom pair of Ponnakovs. The 8 turn completed Kisacikoglu's straight as Ponakovs was only drawing to a chop, which did not come on the 2 river as he hit the rail.

Ausmus Applies Pressure to Tollerene

Level 9 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Jeremy Ausmus opened the button to 75,000 and was called by Matthias Eibinger in the small blind and Ben Tollerene in the big blind.

On the Q107 flop, the action checked to Ausmus who continued for 65,000. Eibinger quickly folded but Tollerene stuck around.

The turn brought the K. Ausmus sized up to 300,000 which did not shake Tollerene as he wanted to see another card.

The A river brought a four-liner on board as Tollerene used a time bank before he checked. Ausmus announced a bet of 750,000, which prompted a quick fold from Tollerene.

Badziakouski Keeps Firing, Table Already on Edge

Level 9 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Leon Sturm opened to 60,000 from under the gun and Mikita Badziakouski three-bet to 165,000 in the cutoff. Sturm called and they went heads-up to a flop of A107.

Sturm checked to Badziakouski who continued with a bet of 200,000 which Sturm called. The turn was the 5 and Sturm checked again. Badziakouski counted out a bet of 500,000 and Sturm dumped his cards into the muck.

With Martin Kabrhel seated right behind this table and already in a very chipper mood this morning, the table started complaining about the noise within just a few minutes.

"Can you guys do anything about him talking?" Orpen Kisacikoglu asked the floor.

"At least something about the noise level?" Chance Kornuth also pleaded.
