Teoh Doubles Through Duczak

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Ming Juen Teoh in late position and Aaron Duczak in the small blind clashed after a flop of {J-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{7-Spades} and the latter bet the pot, Teoh moved all in for 27,000 and Duczak called.

Ming Juen Teoh: {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{5-Spades}
Aaron Duczak: {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}{K-Clubs}{3-Clubs}

Teoh was in the lead with trips sevens but Duczak improved to a flush with the {Q-Clubs} turn. However, Teoh had the last word as he spiked the {5-Clubs} river for a full house. Fellow countryman Michael Soyza was less fortunate and busted, but immediately re-entered.

Barriocanal Doubles Through Marques

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 0 ante
Pedro Marques takes a hit
Pedro Marques takes a hit

Only a few chips were in the middle with the flop showing {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and Pedro Marques checked in the hijack. Daniel Barriocanal in the cutoff bet 9,000 and Marques check-raised for the size of the pot. That sent his opponent deep into the think tank and Barriocanal mulled over his next move for quite some time before pushing all in, Marques snap-called.

Daniel Barriocanal: {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{J-Spades}{4-Spades}
Pedro Marques: {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

Marques had flopped the straight, but the {5-Hearts} turn gave Barriocanal the check mark with the nut flush. That made the {7-Diamonds} river a mere formality and Barriocanal doubled for 70,000.

Sterner Pushes Kabrhel Around

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Martin Kabrhel raised the pot from late position and Ludvig Sterner three-bet the pot to 14,400.

"How much? That's a good price," Kabrhel said and tossed in the additional chips.

On the {10-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop, Kabrhel checked and Sterner bet the pot to force a fold.

Anthony Zinno also registered late and joined the competition just before the third break of the day.

Small Pot for Luo

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

The crazy action has slowed down somewhat and there was no all in and call every other minute. Ryan Riess dropped to one fourth of the starting stack and Michael Soyza had to forfeit a small pot to table neighbor Xixiang Luo.

It was Luo that bet a five-way limped flop of {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{4-Spades} for 4,500 and just Soyza called. On the {3-Clubs} turn, Luo then made it 15,000 to go and Soyza let go. Luo claimed the pot, stacked it neatly on his tower and put his pyramide card protector on top.

Aces Versus Aces With a Twist

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Jan-Peter Jachtmann four-bet the pot and Botond Barat called all in for what appeared to be 70,000.

Botond Barat: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Jan-Peter Jachtmann: {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{7-Clubs}

On the {7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop both were freerolling and Jachtmann seemingly ensured a big pot with the {J-Clubs} turn. However, the {5-Clubs} river paired the board and they chopped it up.
