Sozya Out Flopped

Shirley Ang
Shirley Ang
Level 11 : 12,000/24,000, 24,000 ante

The board read {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and Michael Soyza bet 130,000. Vladimir Troyanovskiy raised to 585,000 which incited a response of Soyza to shove for 1,026,000. Troyanovskiy tanked for a quite a while and ended up calling with the bigger stack. Soyza held {a-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for the flopped trip aces but was beat when Troyanovskiy tabled {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for the flopped full house.

Sylvain Loosli has reentered and taken Soyza's old seat. Joni Jouhkimainen joined the field too and has taken seat two on the same table.

Level 10 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Dietrich Fast shoved all in for 236,000 in the hijack and Christian Rudolph called on the button. Will Givens stuck in a three-bet to 800,000 from the small blind and Rudolph tanked for a minute before folding.

Dietrich Fast: {k-Clubs}{3-Clubs}
Will Givens: {a-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

Givens held the lead preflop but the {k-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} flop favored Fast. The {10-Clubs} on the turn narrowed Givens' outs even further and the {8-Diamonds} on the river secured the pot for Fast.

Niall Farrell opened the action with a raise to 45,000 from the cutoff. Small blind Yue Wei Hsiang had different ideas and three-bet to 95,000. The player in the big blind folded and Farrell called the bet.

The flop came down {8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and Hsiang put in a continuation bet of 80,000. Farrell called again and the turn was the {5-Clubs}. Hsiang fired another bet and he put in 225,000. Farrell called another time and the {10-Spades} completed the board.

Hsiang checked this time and Farrell was the one to bet as he put in a stack worth about 1,100,000, which was enough to put Hsiang all in. Hsiang took his time but decided to fold after several minutes.

Martin Kabrhel and Stefan Schillhabel have both reentered the tournament and have taken their seats again with a stack of 1,000,000.

Level 10 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

On a board reading {k-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}, Wai Kin Yong was in early position and bet 180,000 into a pot of nearly 300,000. Thomas Muehloecker called on the button and the {8-Spades} completed the board.

Yong moved all in for his last 420,000 and Muehloecker asked for a count. A few moments later, Muehloecker made the call and Yong turned over {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for a missed straight draw. Muehloecker tabled {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts} and sent Yong to the rail.

Level 10 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Stefan Schillhabel was left short after doubling James Chen up but now he shoved from the button for his last 49,000. Jean-Noel Thorel three-bet to 160,000 from the small blind and Johannes Becker quickly folded his big blind.

Stefan Schillhabel: {9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Jean-Noel Thorel: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

The board ran out {8-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{k-Hearts} to give Schillhabel the pair of eights on the flop to double up. Unfortunately Shillhabel busted shortly after to Thorel.

James Chen raised to 45,000 from the cutoff and Stefan Schillhabel shoved with the slightly bigger stack from the small blind. Jean-Noel Thorel quickly folded his big blind and Chen called after considering it for a while for the 657,000 he had behind.

James Chen: {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}
Stefan Schillhabel: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

The flop came {q-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} to give Chen two pair immediately.

The turn was the {q-Hearts} to give Chen a full house and Schillhabel was drawing dead.

The {j-Diamonds} on the river was just a formality to complete the board and after paying Chen his double-up, Schillhabel was left with a mere 49,000.
