Rezaei Takes Another One Out

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Philippe Bouhnik wasn't at his table anymore and had been eliminated with Daniel Rezaei and Ali Cetinbilek sporting significantly bigger stacks than during the previous break.

Now Rezaei had raised from under the gun and Francesco Amatulli shoved for around 40,000 from the button. Rezaei called.

Francesco Amatulli: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Daniel Rezaei: {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The board ran out {7-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} for Rezaei to hit a pair of kings on the flop to eliminate Amatulli from Day 1c.

Prior Puts Pressure On

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Vladis Burneikis raised to 6,000 from the button and Daniel Prior called in the small blind.

They both checked through the {3-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} on the flop to the {4-Hearts} on the turn. Prior bet 8,500 and Burneikis raised to 20,000 which Prior then called.

The river completed the board with the {8-Diamonds} and now they both checked again. Prior angrily flipped over {5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for the rivered flush. Burneikis showed {q-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for the flopped top pair.

The hand right after that, the player in mid-position raised to 6,000 and was called by Burneikis in the cutoff, Prior on the button and Ilvars Gudrimovics in the big blind.

The flop came {5-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for Gudromovics to be the only one to check-call the 17,500 bet of Prior.

The turn was the {k-Diamonds} Gudromovics bet 5,000. Prior checked out Gudromovic's stack who had 65,000 behind and then decided to go all-in. Gudromovics considered it for a few seconds but then folded.

Burneikis Doubles Through Prior

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

The board read {2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{10-Spades} with over 60,000 in the middle already and three players in the hand.

Daniel Prior shoved with the biggest stack in the small blind. Marek Soukup was sitting in the big blind and opted to fold. Vladas Burneikis considered his options from the button and decided to make the call. Prior tabled {4-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for the flopped pair of deuces and Burneikis showed {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for the rivered pair of tens to scoop the pot.

Prior tapped the table: "nice hand" and then paid Burneikis the 31,700 he had in front of him for the double-up.

Cetinbilek Eliminates Two Opponents

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Anatolii Zyrin had raised from the cutoff and Antonio Battaglia has shoved for 13,900 on the button. Ali Cetinbilek called in the small blind and action was back on Zyrin who also decided to shove for almost 50,000 in total. Cetinbilek looked at the amount and called that shove too with the bigger stack.

Antonio Battaglia: {A-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Anatolii Zyrin: {5-Spades}{5-Clubs}
Ali Cetinbilek: {K-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

The board ran out {9-Hearts}{10-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for Cetinbilek's opponent to be drawing dead on the turn already as he hit a set of kings and improved to a full house by the time the river was dealt. Both Zyrin and Battaglia quickly made their way out of the tournament area.
