Plante Flushed Away

Stewart Morrison

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

In a series of preflop raises between Santiago Plante on the button and Tian Liu in the big blind, Plante was all in for his remaining 13,600 and at risk.

Santiago Plante: A♣5♣ All in
Tian Liu: A♥Q♥

Plante took the lead on the 8♥K♥5♦ flop, but the turn 4♥ saw him drawing dead.

The river 8♣ joined the board, but by that point, Plante was already on his way to the exit.

A round of checks occurred when the flop came 6♠9♥6♦.

The J♠ turn resulted in a bet of 1,600 from Yaroshevskyy. Ketzer gave it a moment's thought before he folded.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Christoph Vogelsang had raised to 9,000 from the cutoff over some previous action and Armin Rezaei called from the button.

The flop came 10♥5♥7♥. Vogelsang bet 3,500 and Rezaei called.

Both players checked the 9♥ turn leading to the 4♥ river. Vogelsang shoved, covering Rezaei who had just over 20,000 left.

Rezaei called and showed 9♠9♣, having turned a set before the river left him playing just the flush on the board. Vogelsang had J♥8♥ for a straight flush to send Rezaei to the rail.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Shojiro Morita raised to 1,100 from under the gun, which led to a call from Arsenii Karmatckii on the button.

Morita bet 1,500 the flop fanned out 6♥K♣A♦. Karmatchkii responded with a raise to 4,200. Morita called to send them to a turn.

The J♥ turn led to a bet of 3,500 from Morita. Karmatchkii chose to play for it all and jammed for approximately 21,000.

"I have the nuts," Morita said as he called to put Karmatchkii at risk.

Arsenii Karmatckii: K♠6♠
Shojiro Morita: Q♠10♥

The turn was a welcome sight for Morita, who spiked the nut straight, but Karmatchkii did have some outs to a full house to stay alive.

The 2♠ river was not what Karmatchkii hoped for as he was eliminated from contention.

Bergin Hero Calls to Double

Stewart Morrison

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Action was joined in a three-bet pot with roughly 20,500 in the middle. After a raise from Aleks Dimitrov in the hijack and a call from Conor Bergin on the button, Mitchell Hynam had put in a three-bet from the small blind, which both players called.

Hynam continued with a bet of 5,000 on the 2♥8♥J♠ flop, which saw Dimitrov fold but Bergin call.

When the dealer added the 5♣ turn to the board, Hynam bet once again, this time for 8,500. Again, Bergin called.

Hynam then fired a third and final bullet, putting Bergin all in for his remaining 12,500 on the J♦ river.

Bergin gave it some thought and decided to make the call. Hynam turned over A♥Q♦, for just ace-high, which was unable to beat the 8♠7♠ held by Bergin.

Stewart Morrison

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Nicolas Tytgat kicked the action off with a raise to 1,200 on the button. Pavels Spirins responded from the small blind with a raise to 3,600.

The action folded back to Tytgat, who took stock of his stack before moving all in for 23,500, receiving an immediate call from Spirins.

Nicolas Tytgat: 9♠9♥ All in
Pavels Spirins: A♠K♠

The Q♦2♦5♦ flop was clean for Tytgat, who remained ahead on the 3♣ turn too. However, the 4♠ river improved Spirins to a straight, signalling the end of the road for Tytgat.
