Bernstein Completes his Draw

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Action was picked up with Srivinay Irrinki under the gun and Michael Bernstein on the button with their chips in the middle on a flop of Q♦J♠2♥ and a pot of around 7,500.

Srivinay Irrinki: 6♠6♣ All in
Michael Bernstein: K♣10♥

Irrinki was ahead with his sixes, but Bernstein was hoping to either hit the board with his overcards or complete his open-ended straight draw. The Q♥ turn didn't shift the lead. Bernstein completed his straight when the 9♦ fell on the river.

Irrinki stood up and verified if the dealer busted him out of the app. With registration still open, perhaps Irrinki will reenter.

Julien Sitbon

The board read 10♠J♥10♣K♦ in a heads-up pot when Julien Sitbon, in the big blind, check-called a bet worth 6,000 from Kane Kalas.

The Q♦ completed the board and both checked.

"I win," declared Sitbon, before showing K♠10♦ for a full house. Kalas sent his cards into the muck.

Everyone Loves a.......

Niall Farrell
Niall Farrell

Tanner Pray raised from early position to 5,500, and the action folded around to Niall Farrell in the big blind, who made the call.

The flop came 3♣Q♠10♥, Farrell checked to Pray, who continued for 3,500, and Farrell called. The J♥ came on the turn, and again Farrell checked to Pray, who this time bet out for 15,500. Farrell made the call.

The 8♣ dropped on the river, and Farrell knuckled the table again. Pray tossed out a big bet of 50,000, and Farrell thought briefly before he made the call and tabled Q♦9♥ for a straight, but Pray tabled A♠9♣ for the same straight, and the dealer started chopping up the pot.

Li Finds a Small Double Up via Pochat

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

In a blind versus blind situation, Victor Li shoved for his last 30,000 holding 10♠9♠ and Manuel Pochat called with K♦9♦.

The board A♦J♦8♥Q♣A♠ gave the winning to Li, thanks to a straight on the turn, to double his stack.

Aces versus Kings

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Lewis Spencer opened to 5,000 in middle position and got an all-in shove from the player to his immediate left, Garry Gates, for 34,000. Small blind Fabiano Kovalski called. When action got back to Spencer, he got out of the way, leaving the other two players to head to a showdown.

Garry Gates: K♣K♦ All in
Fabiano Kovalski: A♣A♦

It was a classic kings versus aces battle, which Gates didn't expect to have very early in the day. Visibly disheartened once the hands were tabled, he watched the board get dealt, expecting the worst.

The board ran out Q♥9♣6♥7♥5♣, and Kovalski's aces held, sending Gates out of the tournament.

Better Kicker for Beinner

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

The board already read 3♥9♣8♥7♥7♦ when Claas Segebrecht bet 8,000 from the big blind. Matthew Beinner shoved on the button, and Segebrecht called with the smaller stack.

Beinner showed 10♠7♠ for trip sevens and Segebrecht quickly sent 7♣6♣ into the muck for the same hand with the dominated kicker .

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

A three-way all-in situation occurred involving Vladimir Geshkenbein in middle position with 72,000, Srivinay Irrinki to his left with a slightly bigger stack, and Agustin Coelli in the cutoff with 49,000.

Agustin Coelli: A♥Q♦ All in
Vladimir Geshkenbein: A♠A♦ All in
Srivinay Irrinki: Q♥Q♣

Geshkenbein's aces held on 7♦6♦K♠6♥K♣, and he almost tripled up, while Coelli was eliminated and Irrinki was left with only 3,500. He was eliminated a few hands later.

Samy Dubonnet: A♦10♦ All in
Marco Guibert: J♣J♠

Dubonnet's hand was dominated and the board 3♣5♠6♣2♠K♣ didn't bring him any help.

Early Double for Schneider

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Action folded around to Paul Tedeschi in middle position, who raised to 5,000, only for Peter Schneider to three-bet to 12,000 from late position. Tedeschi called, and the players saw the flop of 8♦7♦A♠.

Tedeschi checked, and Schneider continued for 8,000. Tedeschi called, and both players checked the Q♥ that came on the turn.

The 3♦ peeled off on the river, and Tedeschi put the pressure on Schneider by leading out for 52,000, which covered Schneider's remaining chips. Schneider went into the tank for a short while and made the call, tabling A♦10♠ for top pair, which had Tedeschi's 8♠9♠ (pair of eights) crushed, and he was shipped the pot for a full double up and more.
