Tsaknis Busts Two

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Vasileios Tsaknis
Vasileios Tsaknis

A three-way all-in showdown reduced the field by two players and ensured that the next table would break.

"Wow, that's thenuts," Shawn Stroke said in disbelief as his cards were already mucked with the board showing {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{j-Hearts}. Ernst Stoller saw his hopes vanish with the {q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} as Vasileios Tsaknis rivered the nut straight with his {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Clubs}.

Kogovsek Eliminated After Clash With Pirsic

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Tomaz Kogovsek
Tomaz Kogovsek

With some 55,000 in the middle and the turn showing {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}, Tomaz Kogovsek checked and Miha Pirsic bet 30,000. Kogovsek then jammed and his countryman called it off with a near identical stack.

Tomaz Kogovsek: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}{j-Hearts}{2-Clubs}
Miha Pirsic: {j-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}

The {7-Spades} river improved Pirsic to a full house and he doubled for 99,000 while Kogovsek was left with 3,000 and forced all-in out of the big blind the next hand.

Jaroslav Peter then opened to 10,000 in the cutoff and Serok Kilic called on the button. Peter bet the {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} flop for 10,000, checked the {k-Clubs} turn and bet the {8-Clubs} river for another 10,000. Kilic called and was shown the {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} for quads by Peter. He mucked a {a-}{j-}{7-}{6-} while Kogovsek was eliminated with the {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}.
