Wolfrom and Sekularac Have a Raising War

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Ognjen Sekularac raised from the hijack and Sebastian Wolfrom re-raised on the button. Sekularac called and the flop fell {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}{9-Spades}.

Sekularac checked to Wolfrom who bet 55,000. Sekularac check-raised to 125,000 only to have Wolfrom re-raise to 405,000. Sekularac thought about it for a minute but decided to let his hand go sending the pot to Wolfrom.

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Alex Foxen
Alex Foxen

Ruben Garcia Blancas raised and called the shove of Alex Foxen for 16 big blinds with near identical stacks.

Alex Foxen: {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Ruben Garcia Blancas: {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}

The board of {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{2-Spades}{J-Hearts}{7-Spades} provided no help for the 2017 WSOP Player of the Year contender and he was sent to the rail.

Thiel Continues to Stay Aggressive

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

On a flop of {10-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, Florian Fuchs led out for 50,000 from middle position. Martin Thiel was in the cutoff and made the call. The {k-Spades} landed on the turn and Fuchs checked this time.

Thiel quickly fired 100,000 and Fuchs made the call. The river landed the {9-Clubs} and Fuchs checked again. Thiel announced all-in for 456,000 and Fuchs was puzzled. "Is this another bluff?" he asked Thiel but didn't get a response. Fuchs finally folded and Thiel raked in another pot.

Ambrosio Busts Magistro

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

The first two casualties after coming back from dinner were Marco Magistro and Fahredin Mustafov. The former three-bet shoved into a raise to 51,000 by fellow Italian Christian Ambrosio and his countryman called.

Marco Magistro: {A-Spades}{4-Clubs}
Christian Ambrosio: {K-Diamonds}{J-Spades}

The board of {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts} improved Ambrosio on the flop and Magistro was eliminated.

Foxen Flops Well to Remain in Contention

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Alex Foxen open-shoved for his last 139,000 from early position and Nursultan Abilkassym reluctantly called out of the small blind.

Alex Foxen: {A-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Nursultan Abilkassym: {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}

The flop came {A-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Foxen improved to two pair. Neither the {5-Hearts} turn nor the {8-Spades} river changed the outcome of the hand and Foxen doubled to leave his opponent short.

Magalashvili Busts Gkatzas Before Dinner Break

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Michael Magalashvilili
Michael Magalashvilili

Dimitrios Gkatzas shipped all-in for around 110,000 in middle position and Michael Magalashvili moved all-in over the top for 175,000 in the cutoff. The button and blinds folded and the two hands were tabled.

Magalashvili had Gkatzas dominated with {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} against {k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. The board of {a-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} provided no help to Gkatzas and he was eliminated. Magalashvili gave a fist pump when his hand held up to rake in a pot just before the dinner break.

Gkatzas takes home €2,393 for his efforts and Jaroslaw Sikora, David Rodriguez, Karel Novotny and Tomas Junek all had to settle for the same payout as well.
