Obreshkov Rivers Farrell

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Stoyan Obreshkov opened in the cutoff and Niall Farrell defended big blind. He checked and called 36,000 on an {a-Clubs}{5-Spades}{q-Hearts} flop. Two checks followed the {2-Clubs} and a {3-Clubs} completed the board. Farrell dropped in a bet of 127,000 and Obreshkov quickly flicked in a calling chip.

Farrell opened {q-}{5-} for flopped bottom two, but the {a-}{4-} of Obreshkov had turned into a wheel on the river.

Madaras on Fumes

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Norbert Madaras was in position and facing off against Mathijs Jonkers on a board of {3-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{2-Spades}{2-Clubs}. Jonkers bet 125,000 from the big blind and Madaras flicked in a chip to call.

"Trips," Jonkers announced, tabling {j-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}. Madaras could only muck and be left under 10 big blinds.

Speranza Bests Mrakes

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Marc MacDonnell raised to 45,000 in the hijack and called the three-bet to 76,000 by Stepan Osinovski on the button. Both players checked the {10-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop and the {J-Hearts} turn. MacDonnell then bet the {7-Spades} river for 55,000 and that forced a fold from Osinovski.

One hand later, Gianluca Speranza raised to 45,000 and Michal Mrakes called in the big blind. The flop of {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades} was checked by Mrakes and Speranza bet 48,000, which Mrakes called. There was no betting action on the {10-Clubs} turn and Mrakes' bet of 143,000 on the {2-Clubs} river was called by Speranza.

Mrakes showed {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} for jacks and tens, but Speranza had that beat with {8-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for a flush.

Rainer Kempe Eliminated in 22nd Place (€31,377)

Rainer Kempe
Rainer Kempe

Rainer Kempe shoved the button for 360,000 and Vlad Darie called from the big blind with {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}. Kempe needed a lot of help with {j-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}.

The board ran out with a somewhat reasonable flop for Kempe, {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{5-Hearts}, but the {k-Spades} on the turn had Kempe drawing dead.

He is eliminated in 22nd place and will take home €31,377.

Ramin Hajiyev Eliminated in 23rd Place (€31,377)

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Ramin Hajiyev
Ramin Hajiyev

Action folded to the small blind, where Stepan Osinovski completed. Ramin Hajiyev made it 55,000 and Osinovski shoved all in after counting his stack. Hajiyev snap-called with {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} and was up against {9-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}. Incredibly, Osinovski hit two pair on the {j-Clubs}{10-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} runout, leaving Hajiyev walking away from the table in anger. Osinovski collected 545,000 from his upset neighbor.

The next hand, Osinovski opened button and called Hajiyev's small blind ship for 400,000.

Hajiyev: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Osinovski: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

This time Hajiyev was dominated, and he did not get a favor from the deck as Osinovski did: {j-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}.

Madaras Doubles Through Obreshkov

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Norbert Madaras shoved all in from the under-the-gun position and action folded back to Stoyan Obreshkov who had doubled Mathijs Jonkers just before. Obreshkov asked for a count. Madaras had 144,000 in front of him. Obreshkov also shoved and didn't get a caller.

Norbert Madaras: {A-Spades}{4-Spades}
Stoyan Obreshkov: {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}

The board ran out {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{A-Hearts} - Madaras was getting ready to leave the table until the ace fell on the river and he sat back down as he doubled up.

Farrell and Mrakes Build Stack

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Niall Farrell raised to 45,000 on the button and Robert Bickley called in the big blind. On the {Q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{6-Clubs} flop both players checked before Bickley bet the {9-Hearts} river for 65,000, Farrell called. Bickley also bet the {3-Diamonds} river for 160,000 and Farrell called to get shown {Q-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} for two pair by Bickley. Farrel turned over {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} for a set and won the pot.

Michal Mrakes raised to 40,000 and Gianluca Speranza called out of the big blind. On a flop of {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{2-Spades}, Speranza check-called a continuation bet of 40,000 and the {6-Hearts} turn was checked. Speranza bet the {K-Clubs} river for what appeared to be 72,000 and Mrakes called with {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts} to claim the pot, as Speranza only had {K-Spades}{4-Spades} for the busted nut flush draw and a rivered pair of kings.

Jonkers Jumps Into The Lead

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Mathijs Jonkers
Mathijs Jonkers

Mathijs Jonkers raised to 50,000 from the small blind and Stoyan Obreshkov called from the big blind.

The flop came {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}{7-Spades}, Jonkers bet 40,000, Obreshkov raised to 110,000, Jonkers three-bet to 310,000 and Obreshkov called.

The turn brought them the {7-Clubs} on which they both checked.

The river completed the board with the {8-Clubs}, Jonkers bet 125,000 and Obreshkov tanked. After about two minutes he took his whole stack of blue 25,000-chips and put them in as a bet.

"If you have eight-seven, that would be really sick!" Jonkers said while looking at the board again. The bet Obreshkov looked like it was worth all of Jonkers' stack. "I call!" Jonkers said.

Obreshkov showed {9-Spades}{5-Hearts} but was dominated by Jonkers' {A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} as he had a full house, sevens over threes.

The dealer counted Jonkers' stack and he had 780,000 behind. The stack of blue chips Obreshkov had put on the line was worth 775,000 so it all went Jonkers' way.

The board ran out {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} and Darie doubled up.
