Wyraz Eliminated on First Bullet

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

The cards were all but rushed away with the {10-Spades}{10-Hearts} of Giovanni Sances still tabled, while Grzegorz Wyraz was spotted leaving the table. According to Sances, Wyraz only had {9-}{6-} for a pair of sixes and will likely re-enter soon.

One table over, another Italian was involved in the action. Leandro Dirlewanger faced a raise to 500 and three-bet to 1,600 from one seat over. The hijack clicked it up to 4,500 and that forced folds from everyone.

Stringbet by Nader

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

On the river of a board {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}, Amjad Nader faced a bet of 3,500 and wanted to raise, but dropped in the chips via stringbet. As a result, it was just a call and even his opponent admitted "I just want to see your cards,"

The opponent tabled the {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and Nader held {9-Spades}{9-Clubs} for a full house.

"I wouldn't have called your all in with just the jack anyways," the other player said in table chat.

Wyraz Busts a Second Time

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante
Jessica Teusl
Jessica Teusl

Grzegorz Wyraz re-entered but won't be able to do so again after having just been eliminated by Jessica Teusl. The cards were all but rushed away and Wyraz' {K-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for tens and fives on an ace-high board were mucked while the pot was shipped over to Teussl.

According to Teusl, it was a multi-way pot with four players heading to the {A-}{10-}{5-} flop and the action was checked through. On the {5-Hearts} turn, Teusl over-bet for 4,000 and just Wyraz called to then see a blank {2-} on the river. Teusl moved all in and Wyraz called it off to get shown the bad news, as Teussl had {5-}{4-} for trips fives.

The rush continued right away, as Teusl raked in another decent pot with {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} on a {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} board the very next hand. Jerome Sgorrano is also featured on this very same table.

Holst Triples Up

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

Kollatos called on the button only for Lavrov to now check-raise to 21,300. That forced a fold from Kollatos and Holst could essentially triple up in a heads-up showdown.

Maksym Lavrov: {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

The {J-Clubs} turn and {7-Spades} river kept Holst in the lead and he tripled up.
