No Sturm Warning, Leathley Takes the Pot

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Guy Leathley
Guy Leathley

The action was picked up with the board fully spread 86749 and around 900,000 already piled in the middle.

Guy Leathley, first to act from middle position, led out for 90,000, leaving the pressure on Leon Sturm in the cutoff. Sturm took his time, considered his options, but ultimately flicked in the call.

Leathley tabled JJ for an overpair, and that was enough, Sturm sent his cards into the muck, conceding the sizeable pot to Leathley.

Biermann Refuses to Show

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Theo Tran checked a flop of K2K from early position and Ryan Biermann bet 65,000 from the cutoff. Tran carved out the call.

The A turn checked through for the 7 to appear on the river. Tran checked again, but Biermann bet 125,000. Tran went into the tank for quite some time before ultimately folding and revealing QQ. Biermann refused to show, as instead he added some chips to his stack.

Eisenberg Can't Look, Shao Eliminated

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Lara Eisenberg
Lara Eisenberg

The action began with a raise from early position to 35,000. Bob Shao then moved all in for 160,000, a couple of seats over. Lara Eisenberg was next to act, and chose to call the all-in, before Sam Chartier cold four-bet from the big blind to 400,000.

The original raiser folded, and the action was back on Eisenberg. She looked tortured, trying to decide what to do, she counted and recounted her stack. Three or four minutes passed before she moved all in, a five-bet to 535,000. Chartier made the call, and the cards were flipped over.

Bob Shao: AQ All in
Lara Eisenberg: JJ All in
Samuel Chartier: AK

Eisenberg took a few steps away from the table and faced the other direction, unable to watch the runout.

The dealer spread out a 624 flop, followed by a 7 turn and a 9 river. A player not involved in the hand let Eisenberg know it was good news, and she could turn around.

As the pot was being tidied and sent in the direction of Eisenberg, Kenny Hallaert, also at the table, joked, "You tanked so long the other guy [Shao] made a pay jump.”

Locquet Sends Off Lauer

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Robert Lauer shoved for 175,000 from the hijack and Romain Locquet called with a covering stack from the big blind to put him at risk.

Robert Lauer: KQ All in
Romain Locquet: AJ

The 4A1048 runout gave Locquet two pair, aces and fours to send Lauer to the rail and win the hand.

Eychenne Waiting in the Weeds

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Thomas Eychenne opened to 30,000 in early position and Nick Pupillo just flat-called in the cutoff. They went heads-up to a flop of Q97 and Eychenne continued with a bet of 40,000 which Pupillo called.

The turn was the J and the action slowed as both players checked to the J on the river. Eychenne checked again and Pupillo wisely checked it back. Eychenne sheepishly turned over 99 for a full house and Pupillo conceded the pot.

Monahan Still Alive

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Brian Devany kicked off the action with a raise from early position to 35,000. Action folded to Rory Monahan in the hijack, who went all-in for 130,000 with Devany as the caller.

Rory Monahan: 1010All in
Brian Devany: K10

Devany needed a king or a straight to end Monahan's tournament life, but the board ran out 64J46, offering no help for Devany and allowing Monahan to double up.

Hyunsick Jang

Kevin Nee committed his last 175,000 from the big blind against Hyunsick Jang on the button, and was at risk.

Kevin Nee: JJ All in
Hyunsick Jang: KK

The board ran out an inconsequential 6310A5, spelling Nee's elimination.

You Can't Make This Up!

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Christopher Demaci raised to 30,000 in the hijack and Alex Bergfors three-bet to 85,000 in the small blind. Demaci called and they went heads-up to a flop of A86. Bergfors led out with a bet of 30,000 and Demaci raised to 175,000. Bergfors eyed up his opponent's stack and then announced all in which was met by a snap-call from Demaci for his stack of 725,000.

Alex Bergfors: 108All in
Christopher Demaci: A8

Demaci flopped two pair and had Bergfors nearly drawing dead. The 7 on the turn actually gave Bergfors a straight draw but the J on the river bricked out to send a double-up Demaci's way.

Haxton Forces Out Locquet

The flop came 2KQ and Haxton checked. Locquet bet 70,000 and Haxton check-raised to 215,000. Locquet folded and the pot was pushed to Haxton.

Pupillo Takes from Nex

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Heads-up to the turn on a board of K6J5 and with around 300,000 in the pot. Vladimir Nex bet 225,000 from the big blind, and Nick Pupillo called out of an early position.

After a long tank, Nex checked the J river, and Pupillo immediately checked behind. Nex showed ace-high with A9, and lost the pot to Pupillo's QQ for a pair of queens.
