Grospellier Turns a Flush

Level 32 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Marian Kubis raised it up from under the gun with {j-Spades}{j-Clubs} and Bertrand Grospellier defended from the big blind with {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}. The flop came {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and Grospellier check-called a bet from Lubis.

The turn was the {9-Clubs} and both players checked to the {8-Hearts} on the river. Grospellier used two hands to slide out a bet of 1,100,000 and Kubis instantly called. Grospellier tabled his flush and raked in a healthy pot.

Chirstian Mohr Eliminated in 13th Place; Stefan Raschbauer Eliminated in 14th Place (€9,790)

Level 32 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Stefan Raschbauer
Stefan Raschbauer

Christoph Peper open-shipped all in for 2,100,000 in middle position and Christian Mohr stuck in his last 1,900,000 from the cutoff. Stefan Raschbauer also pushed all in for 1,100,000 on the button and all three hands were tabled.

Christoph Peper: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Christian Mohr: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Stefan Raschbauer: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}

It was a fun flop when the {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} hit the felt. The {6-Hearts} paired the board on the turn to give Peper a flush and only Raschbauer was still drawing live. The {9-Spades} completed the board and Peper eliminated both players to bring the field down to 12 players.

Grospellier checked again and Raschbauer threw in a bet of 225,000. Grospellier reached for a stack and pushed out a raise to 650,000. Raschbauer thought for a couple of minutes before slipping the best hand to the muck.

Balazs Bistei

The biggest pot of the event took place between Mick Heder and Balazs Bistei, which started with Heder opening to 250,000 from middle position and Bistei three-betting to 1,000,000 from the small blind.

Heder called and the flop came {7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Clubs} with Bistei firing a continuation bet at 600,000. Heder tanked for a bit and announced all in with Bistei calling after a couple of minutes in the tank too.

Balazs Bistei: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Mick Heder: {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

The {6-Clubs} on the turn was the demise of Bistei as he was left drawing dead. The {q-Diamonds} on the river completed the board and Bistei had 4.7 million behind while Heder had 4.9 million, with the first one leaving his seat in 16th place.
