Mick Heder

Bertrand Grospellier raised to 1,600,000 in the cutoff and Mick Heder shoved all in for 7,400,000 on the button. The blinds folded and Grospellier asked for a rough count before making the call.

Bertrand Grospellier: {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Mick Heder: {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}

Heder was in a dominating position but the flop of {10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} vaulted Grospellier to the lead with a pair of eights. The {10-Clubs} paired the board on the turn and the {k-Diamonds} completed the board. Grospellier scooped the pot and Heder was ousted in fourth place.

Level 39 : 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Dieter Becker
Dieter Becker

Marian Kubis was all in from under the gun with {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} and the action folded around to Dieter Becker in the big blind who had just one blind left in front of him. Becker was all in for 830,000 with {10-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and would require some help.

The flop of {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{4-Clubs} gave Kubas a pair of aces and a commanding lead. The {a-Diamonds} on the turn left Becker drawing dead to the {q-Spades} on the river, leaving just four players remaining.

Becker Left With Crumbs

Level 39 : 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Dieter Becker open-shoved first to act with the {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for 12 million and Bertrand Grospellier in the small blind moved all in for slightly less with the {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}.

The board came {7-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and ace-king high was enough to let Grospellier double and leave Becker with very few chips behind.

Grospellier Makes the Right Call

Level 38 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Bertrand Grospellier opened to 1,200,000 with {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} from under the gun and Avraham Dayan defended from the big blind with {5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. The flop came {q-Spades}{2-Spades}{2-Hearts} and both players checked to the {5-Spades} on the turn.

Dayan led out for 1,800,000 and Grospellier stuck around to see the {7-Diamonds} on the river. Dayan fired out another bet of 2,500,000 and Grospellier flicked in a chip to call. Dayan's two pair was not enough to beat Grospellier's nines and deuces.

Up and Down for Dayan

Level 38 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Marian Kubis made it 1,400,000 on the button with {a-Clubs}{q-Spades} and Avraham Dayan just called in the small blind with {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}. The two players went to a flop of {k-Spades}{9-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and they both checked to the {10-Clubs} on the turn.

Dayan led out for 2,400,000 and Kubis elected to just lay down the same hand.

On the next hand, Dayan picked up {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} on the button and raised to 1,900,000. Mick Heder shoved all in for 5,800,000 in the big blind with {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} and Dayan quickly called.

The flop of {8-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs} left Heder in the lead with his pocket sevens. The {3-Spades} paired the board on the turn and the {j-Clubs} on the river secured the double up for Heder.

Dayan's Turn to Double Up

Level 38 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Dieter Becker limped in on the button with {9-Spades}{8-Spades} and Marian Kubis ripped all in from the small blind. Avraham Dayan instantly called from the big blind for his stack of 10,500,000. Becker quickly folded and the two hands were face up.

Avraham Dayan: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Marian Kubis: {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

The flop came {6-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and both rails started chanting for different cards. The {q-Clubs} on the turn gave Dayan a full house, making the {5-Clubs} on the river insignificant for Kubis.
