Mike Sowers

Mike Sowers raised to 19,000 from early position and was called by three players, including Ari Engel in the cutoff. The flop came {a-Spades}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts} and the action was on Sowers who bet 28,000. Engel raised to 77,000 and the other two players folded. Sowers called and they were heads-up to the turn.

The {4-Diamonds} came on the turn and Sowers checked to Engel who bet 121,000. Sowers tanked for about three minutes before finally letting his hand go.

Heath: {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

Olivier Busquet Eliminated by [Removed:532]

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 600 ante
Olivier Busquet
Olivier Busquet

Olivier Busquet moved all in for 55,000 from middle position and [Removed:532] called from late position.

Busquet was at risk with {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}, flipping with [Removed:550]'s {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}. Earlier in the level, [Removed:550] was at risk and backed into a straight to double through Busquet, so he was definitely looking to get some chips back.

The board ran out {a-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} and Busquet couldn't catch a break.

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 600 ante
Thomas Boivin
Thomas Boivin

Martin Staszko moved all-in for his remaining 13,000 chips from middle position and the button called along with Thomas Boivin in the big blind. The flop came {10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{6-Spades} and Boivin led out for 13,000. The button called and they were playing for a side pot as well now.

The turn was the {10-Spades} and Boivin bet 12,000 this time. Again, the button called, and the {4-Spades} came on the river. Both players checked and Boivin tabled {10-Clubs}{8-Spades}. The button showed {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and Staszko showed {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}, neither of which could beat Boivin.
