Suchanek Eliminated by Bokody

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Ebon Bokody raised to 4,000 from the hijack and was called by Shivan Abdine in the cutoff as well as Warwick Mirzikinian in the small blind. Jan Suchanek then shoved for around 60,000 from the big blind before the decision fell back on Bokody. He thought for over a minute before announcing all in for 70,700. Abdine snap-folded. Mirzikinian was still to act and Bokody almost exposed his cards.

"What do you have?" queried Mirzikinian, before Bokody made sure his cards weren't seen.

Mirzikinian eventually flashed his {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades} before mucking his hand.

"I wish he called," joked Suchanek. "You should know what I have," he added to Bokody, before both hands were tabled.

Ebon Bokody: {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Jan Suchanek: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} to see Suchanek unable to improve with his smaller two-pair before he was sent to the rail again.

The river was the {10-Hearts} and both players checked again. Trevillian showed his {7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} for a pair of sevens, but Jiang had him beat with {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} to take down the pot.

"Wow," Pritchard said leaning back in his chair.

Eventually, he folded, so Kempson took down the pot to move to about 175,000 chips.

Burns Doubles Through Suchanek

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

With 14,100 in the pot and the board showing {j-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{9-Hearts} Jan Suchanek bet 6,000 from the small blind and was called by Kahle Burns seated under the gun.

The {2-Hearts} completed the board and Suchanek bet out 20,000 which covered Burns.

Burns went into the tank for over a minute as he agonised over his decision.

"Come on," pleaded Suchanek, who had had enough of waiting.

"Let me think," replied Burns, before he reluctantly made the call for his tournament life.

Suchanek then tabled {q-Diamonds}{3-Spades} for two pair with a queen-kicker before Burns rolled over his {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a better two-pair and the winning hand.
