Stewart Morrison

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

The action was joined as Patrick Quinn and Cory Rock were battling blind versus blind.

The players had a board in front of them reading 8♦7♦7♥, and roughly 90,000 in the pot.

Quinn checked over to Rock, who placed a bet of 40,000. Quinn made the call.

The players then took the cautious approach from there, checking down the 3♥ turn as well as the 4♠ river.

Quinn flipped over 2♠2♦, which was unable to beat the J♠J♥ of Rock.

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Amadeus Janotta was all in for his final 51,000 from middle position, at risk against Stacey Metz Ceragioli on the button.

Amadeus Janotta: 9♠9♦ All in
Stacey Metz Ceragioli: 10♠10♣

Janotta was in rough shape against the dominating pair of Ceragioli until the 9♥5♦5♣ flop vaulted Janotta into the lead as he made a full house. He was able to hold through the K♥J♣ runout as he secured the double in dramatic fashion.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

In an already loaded pot, the turn showed 8♠7♠6♥5♥ and Wagner Wysotchanski bet 55,000 for Nissim Ohayon to call. That led them to the A♠ river on which Wysotchanski bet another 75,000. Ohayon called and was shown the 10♠10♣ for a pair of tens by Wysotchanski, which he had beat with Q♣9♣ for the straight to leave Wysotchanski somewhat flabbergasted.

Player	Chips	Progress
Nissim Ohayon	1,005,000 782,500	782,500
Wagner Wysotchanski	852,000 198,000	198,000

Sava Krink

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Thomas Eychenne opened from early position with a raise to 13,000 and picked up two callers: William Camp in the hijack and Tony Le in the big blind.

On the A♦6♣4♠ flop, Le checked, and Eychenne continued for 16,000. Camp was the only one who called to proceed to the turn.

The J♣ fell, and Eychenne kept the pressure on with a bet of 23,000. Camp thought it over but called once again.

When the 5♦ hit the river, Eychenne fired one more time, a hefty 116,000. Camp went into the tank for a while, clearly faced with a tough decision, but eventually made the call.

Eychenne tabled A♣6♥ for flopped two pair, and Camp quickly sent his cards into the muck as Eychenne raked in another big pot.

Player	Chips	Progress
Thomas Eychenne	1,590,000 884,000	884,000
William Camp	606,000 23,000	23,000
