Valent Doubles Through Miegel

Level 6 : 300/500, 500 ante

On the flop of {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades}, Vladimir Valent bet 5,200 and called the shove of Jakob Miegel to create the following showdown:

Vladimir Valent: {3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Jakob Miegel: {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts}

Miegel was ahead with bottom pair and the nut flush draw, but Valent was drawing live with his open-ended straight draw. Nothing much changed on the {4-Diamonds} turn, but the {A-Spades} river gave Valent a straight to double for 16,300.

Double Seat Open Amid Plenty of Confusion

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante
Double Knockout for Edgars Strupka
Double Knockout for Edgars Strupka

The flop showed {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and Casey Kastle checked in the small blind, as did Milad Oghabian in the big blind. Edgars Strupka bet 2,100 in late position and Kastle check-shoved for 23,500. Oghabian pushed forward his chips and Strupka quickly tossed in a single chip for the call as far superior stack.

Casey Kastle: {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Milad Oghabian: {Q-Clubs}{5-Hearts}
Edgars Strupka: {A-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

The {K-Clubs} turn and {3-Diamonds} river completed the board, but suddenly the floor was called. What had happened? On the flop, Oghabian had kept some T-500 chips behind and was technically not all in. However, his shove over the top of Kastle would have been for his entire stack. As a result, the floor ruled it as accepted action and all chips of Oghabian went to Strupka.

Miller Busts Boyd in Big Flip

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante
Dutch Boyd
Dutch Boyd

Dutch Boyd raised to 2,000 and picked up one caller. Artem Miller in the small blind made it 6,000 to go and Boyd reraised to 21,000 with around 20,000 behind. The cold-caller folded and Miller gave it some thought before moving all in, a quick call by Boyd followed.

Dutch Boyd: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Artem Miller: {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}

The board came {10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{A-Spades}{J-Diamonds} and Miller paired his ace on the turn to send the three-time WSOP bracelet winner to the rail.

Second Time no Charm for Miegel

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Oliver Heidel built a stack and has more than three times the starting stack. That is nothing compared to Gerrit Muller and Daniel Prior, though, but Heidel is on the way for a deep run in the tournament already.

Jaroslav Peter and Pasquale Grimaldi have joined the tournament, Mick Heder and Jakob Miegel departed. The latter has busted for the second time and won't be allowed to re-enter on Day 1A anymore.

Langrock Wins a Small Pot

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Just before their table broke, Alexander Shelukhin and Sebastian Langrock clashed in a small pot. The board showed {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{J-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and Shelukhin bet 3,000 for two third the pot. Langrock gave it some thought and called to get shown {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a busted straight and flush draw. Langrock claimed the pot with {Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for a pair of nines to chip up on his second bullet of the day.
