Li Locks Up the Triple

Level 4 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Ze Yu Li opened to 4,400 from under the gun, and Christopher Frank three-bet to 16,800 from early position. Dylan Weisman called from the hijack, and Li jammed for 69,800. Frank re-jammed for ~210,000, and Weisman called.

Ze Yu Li: AA72All in
Dylan Weisman: AKJ2All in
Christopher Frank: J1097

Li had the best of it with aces, and he stood to watch his fate. The 5Q8 flop brought in the nut flush draw for Li and kept him ahead.

Things just got better for Li as the J turn was peeled, completing his flush, and he was saved from elimination. Weisman had picked up the second-nut flush to take the side pot after the 8 river was placed. Frank took a big hit after the hand, and was left with just over one-third of a starting stack.

Chenxiang Miao
Chenxiang Miao

With 62,400 already in the pot and a 1036 flop face up on the felt, Chenxiang Miao bet 35,000 from under the gun. Eelis Parsinnen, one seat to his left, potted it to 167,400. Bryce Yockey quickly folded, but Miao called, putting himself all in for 110,000.

Chenxiang Miao: KQQ10 All in
Eelis Parsinnen: A765

Miao had a world of outs to dodge, and he managed to do just that as the 10 turn and 2 river completed the board.

Li Doubles and Leaves Raviv Short

Level 3 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Chance Kornuth opened to 2,800 from under the gun, and Anatoly Zlotnikov raised to 8,600 from early position. Ze Yu Li moved all in for his remaining 26,500 from middle position, and action folded around to Idan Raviv in the big blind, who re-jammed for around 70,000.

Kornuth and Zlotnikov folded, leaving the players to go heads-up to showdown.

Ze Yu Li: K976All in
Idan Raviv: AAQ10

Li needed to hit to stay alive, but Raviv was sitting strong with aces.

The 2J10 flop was good for Li as he picked up straight and flush draws. Raviv paired his ten and had a gutshot to Broadway.

The 6 turn put Li in the lead with the spade flush, and he held on the J river to remain in the tournament.

Zlotnikov Catches Guerra Speeding

Level 3 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Lautaro Guerra raised to 2,800 in the cutoff, and Anatoly Zlotnikov three-bet to 9,200 from the small blind. The action folded back to Guerra, who called.

Zlotnikov check-called a bet of 10,000 on the Q34 flop, before the action checked through on the Q turn.

Zlotnikov checked once again on the 5 river and called when Guerra bet 51,000.

"You're good," Guerra told Zlotnikov. However, Zlotnikov didn't want to show his cards first.

Guerra chose to muck his hand, rather than show, so Zlotnikov did the same.

Zlotnikov Regains

Level 3 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Anatoly Zlotnikov opened to 2,800 from the hijack, Ze Yu Li three-bet to 10,000, and Zlotnikov called.

The 244 flop was check-called by Zlotnikov after Li bet 10,000. A 2 was turned and checked to the 2 river. Zlotnikov bet 9,000, which was enough for Li to fold.

A few hands later, Zlotnikov opened to 2,800 from late position, and Klemens Roiter called on the button. Sean Rafael defended the big blind, and the players saw a J28 flop.

Action was checked to Zlotnikov, who bet 5,000 and only Rafael called. A Q turn saw Rafael check-call a 12,000 bet by Zlotnikov, and the Q completed the board.

Both checked to showdown, and Zlotnikov showed A1098 for the straight, taking the pot after Rafael tabled his AJ98 for two pair.

Foxen Joins the Table

Level 3 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

The newly seated Alex Foxen raised to 2,800 in middle position, and Roussos Koliakoudakis called one seat to his left.

Foxen checked on the 695 flop, and Koliakoudakis bet 4,000. Foxen then check-raised to 11,800, which Koliakoudakis called.

The 3 turn and 6 river both checked through, and when Foxen tabled 10754 for a straight, Koliakoudakis mucked his hand.
