Avigal Doubles Once More

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Armin Miller
Armin Miller

On a flop of {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}, Artem Miller and Meir Avigal got their chips in and it was Avigal at risk holding {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades} for top two pair. Miller turned over pocket aces for the over pair, but failed to regain the lead with the {4-Spades} turn and {7-Spades} river run out.

"I was afraid you had pocket deuces for the set," Avigal said while stacking the chips. Miller's hope of making the Day 2 took a massive hit and he busted shortly after against Michael Braeutigam to reduce the Day 1A field to just 15 players.

Hannes Neurauter raised and called the shove of Meir Avigal in the blinds for 104,000 in total.

Meir Avigal: {3-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Hannes Neurauter: {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}

Neurauter had his opponent covered by just over three big blinds and was left with a mountain to climb after the {K-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{2-Clubs}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs} board, the German exited the very next hand.

A Double for Braeutigam

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Before the two table redraw, Anatolii Zyrin had been eliminated in 18th place while Samjia Nasic got through with a check-shove out of the blinds on a {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{4-Spades} flop.

The next short stack to get his chips in was Michael Braeutigam that ended up all in with the {K-Spades}{J-Diamonds}. Corentin Schmauch looked him up out of the big blind with {A-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and Braeutigam ended up with two pair on the board {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{6-Spades}.

Down to Two Tables on Day 1A

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

It only took seven minutes to reduce the field from 21 to 18 and another redraw will now take place for the last two tables. No longer in contention for that are Zudhija Nasic, Carmelo Vasta and Edgars Strupka. Nasic was first to fall and Vasta moved all in from the button for his last few big blinds, which Ricardo Chauriye called in the big blind.

Carmelo Vasta: {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}
Ricardo Chauriye: {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}

The board came {7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}{7-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Chauriye's hand held up to eliminate Vasta. Moments later, Edgars Strupka also bowed out.

Paul Berende Bubbles Day 1A of The COLOSSUS

Paul Berende
Paul Berende

Nicolaas Baars raised to 10,000 and Paul Berende moved all in for 30,500 from late position. Dariusz Glinski called in the big blind, as did Baars. Both active players checked the {J-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{A-Spades}{3-Spades} board and Berende showed {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}. Glinski had that bear with {Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} and Baars mucked {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} to let the bubble on Day 1A burst.

Nasic Triples Up

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Nicolaas Baars raised to 10,000 and Zuhdija Nasic moved all in from the button, which Stephan Kohlstetter called in the big blind. Baars also called and both active players checked down the {10-Spades}{8-Spades}{7-Spades}{8-Clubs}{2-Hearts} board. Nasic showed {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts} and more than tripled up as Kohlstetter had {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, Baars only {A-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}.

One hand later on the same table, Baars raised to 10,000 and Roman Sahin clicked it up to 20,000. Kohlstetter four-bet to 53,000 and just Sahin called for half the stack. They checked the {K-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop and the {8-Hearts} turn brought the jam by Kohlstetter. Sahin folded and was shown the {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}.

Miller Doubles Through Amedi

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Armin Miller
Armin Miller

In a three-bet pot to the {Q-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop, Artem Miller clashed with big stack Netanel Amedi and called all in for what appeared to be 108,000. Amedi was caught with his fingers in the cookie jar and a steal attempt on the pure money bubble:

Artem Miller: {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}
Netanel Amedi: {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The {4-Diamonds} turn locked up the double for Miller, making the {A-Clubs} river a mere formality. Amedi was left with his head shaking and dropped below the average.

Trips for Sahin

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Roman Sahin raised from early position and picked up two callers including Stephan Kohlstetter. On the {K-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{4-Hearts} flop, action checked to Kohlstetter on the button and he bet 11,000. Only Sahin called and the remaining duo then checked the {A-Clubs} turn and {J-Clubs} river. Sahin flashed {J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} for trips jacks and Kohlstetter mucked the {K-Diamonds}.
