River Saves Stefan from Elimination

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

There had been a raise to 4,000 from a player in middle position and one caller before the action got to Aaron Stefan. Stefan chose to move all in for 55,500, a bet which Khoi Nguyen called from the cutoff. With this new information, both the original raiser and caller folded.

Aaron Stefan: AK All in
Khoi Nguyen: 99

Things went smoothly for Nguyen on the 878 flop and the J turn. However, the A river turned the tides in favour of Stefan, improving him to a higher pair and securing him a double up.

Shabelnyk Tries to Squeeze All Chips Out of Perry

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Valentyn Shabelnyk
Valentyn Shabelnyk

Valentyn Shabelnyk opened to 4,000 with KK and Robert Kim called with the A10. Sean Perry on the button three-bet to 12,000 holding the AQ and the initial raiser four-bet small to 24,000. Kim got out of the way and Perry was suspicious of being lured into the pot according to the table chat, but came along to the 975 flop.

The continuation bet of 16,000 followed by Shabelnyk and Perry stuck around to the 3 turn. Shabelnyk slowed down and checked, Perry checked back and they headed to the 10 on the river. Shabelnyk pushed all-in and Perry folded.

Singh Cranks Up the Heat

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Jeevandeep Singh opened to 4,500 and got one caller in the big blind Anthony Farelli.

They saw a flop run 8KJ. Farelli check-called Singh's bet of 3,500 leading them to the turn.

After another check on the 4 turn, Singh upped the pressure to 6,000. Unfazed, Farelli stayed on to see the last card.

With action passed to him once again on the river 5, Singh fired 13,000 which was enough to make Farelli fold.

Pacheco Doubles; Eghi Busts Soon After

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

On a flop of 796 and with around 50,000 in the middle, Aaron Pacheco got his 55,000 into the middle from the button with Jorge Eghi trying to bust him out of the big blind.

Aaron Pacheco: 97 All in
Jorge Eghi: 55

Pacheco had top two pair against the straight draw and set outs of Eghi. The 10 turn and 6 river were safe for Pacheco, and he doubled up through Eghi. Eghi was left with just 20,000 and eliminated in the next orbit.

Studniarz Hits Gross River

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

The board read 9K57 when Jeffrey Gross moved his last 66,500 into a pot of 85,000 from the big blind.

Sylwia Studniarz was in the cutoff and deliberated her options. Eventually, she made a reluctant call to put her opponent at risk.

Jeffrey Gross: AK All in
Sylwia Studniarz: K10

Gross needed to fade just three outs to secure his double-up, but Studniarz made her two pair on the 10 river. Gross took the beat in stride, wishing his former tablemates good luck before the tournament area.

"Rather lucky than smart," Studniarz concluded as she raked in the pot.
