Short Stacks Busted on Table 98

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Sergii Karpov opened to 2,700 from under the gun and was called by Dutch Boyd and Michael Soyza. Teunis Kooij was in the big blind and ripped all in for his last 12,000 chips. Karpov re-shoved all in over the top and both Boyd and Soyza folded.

Karpov turned over {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} which was dominating Kooij's {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}. The board ran out {j-Clubs}{9-Spades}{7-Spades}{3-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and Kooij was sent to the rail.

In the next hand, Giuliano Bendinelli shoved all in for 13,700 from under the gun and Soyza made the call from the cutoff. Bendinelli revealed {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} but was in trouble against the {j-Spades}{j-Hearts} of Soyza. The flop came {7-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Hearts} and Soyza was way ahead with his two pair. The {k-Clubs} on the turn left Bendinelli drawing dead to the {9-Clubs} on the river.

The Blame Lies on the Dealer

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Martin Kabrhel opened to 3,000 from early position and David Russo defended from the big blind.

"Who's gonna win?" Kabrhel asked the dealer.

"You," she responded much to Kabrhel's delight.

The flop came {k-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Spades} and Russo check-called a bet of 3,000 from Kabrhel. "Oh it's going to be tough to win now. I need runner-runner to win," Kabrhel said.

The turn brought the {4-Diamonds} and both players checked. "That card doesn't help me," Kabrhel continued.

The {a-Hearts} landed on the river and Kabrhel appeared to like it. "Perfect! Now I can bluff," he said. Russo didn't even give him the option as he led out for 7,000. Kabrhel quickly called and Russo flipped over {a-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} for a full house.

"What is this shit?" Kabrhel asked the dealer. "You give him runner-runner for a full house. This is all your fault," he joked with the dealer.

"I'm the best dealer," she responded.

"You're between the best and the worst. You're in the trench."

Tobias Peters raised to 2,600 from mid-position and was called by Adolf Huber in the big blind. They both checked through the whole {4-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{8-Clubs} board for Huber to table {9-Spades}{3-Spades} and see Peters take the pot with {a-Spades}{k-Spades}.

The hand after, Michael Magalashvili raised to 2,600 from under the gun and was only called by Danny Covyn in the big blind. They checked through the {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{8-Spades} flop to the {k-Hearts} on the turn. Covyn check-folded to Magalashvili's bet of 1,700.

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

The action folded to Cord Garcia who shipped all in for 12,800 in the cutoff. Thomas Hofmann looked down at his cards in the big blind and made the call.

Thomas Hofmann: {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts}
Cord Garcia: {j-Spades}{4-Spades}

The flop of {9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} left Hofmann in the lead and Garcia needing help to stay alive. The turn was the {7-Spades} which gave Garcia a straight and flush draw but the {9-Diamonds} on the river ended his day early.
