Novotny Eliminates Etim and Talavera

Level 14 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

A completed board of {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}{9-Clubs}{q-Spades}{4-Hearts} was already spread across the felt. Terence Etim shoved all in for around 40,000 in the big blind with around 55,000 already in the middle. Raul Talavera called from the hijack and Karel Novotny re-shoved all in on the button. Talavera had about 25,000 chips left and decided to call it off.

Etim was already standing from his seat and showed {k-Spades}{6-Spades} for a missed straight and flush draw. Talavera held {q-}{q-} for a set of queens but it was Novotny who had {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for straight as he eliminated both opponents.

Kellner Rises to the Top

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

In a three-bet pot, Ladislav Kellner, Edmond Jahjaga, and Stefan Raschbauer went three ways to the flop. The flop came {8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} and Kellner led out with a bet of 15,000 from the big blind. Jahjaga folded but Raschbauer called.

The turn was the {j-Hearts} and Kellner put in a stack of 5,000 chips. Raschbauer had around 85,000 chips left and called off his stack. Kellner showed {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and was ahead of the {5-Clubs}{2-Clubs} of Raschbauer.

The river was the {5-Spades} to give both players trip fives, but Kellner had the better kicker. Raschbauer was eliminated and Kellner appears to be the current chip leader.

Serreli Gets Paid on the River

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

A completed board of {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} was spread out across the felt with around 40,000 chips in the middle. Loana Serreli dropped in a bet of 25,500 which put her opponent Manuel Fritz into the tank.

Fritz thought for a couple of minutes as he tried to get a read from Serreli but she gave nothing away. Fritz made the call and Serreli turned over {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} for a full house, leaving Fritz with just 7,000 chips.

Talavera Flops Trip to Triple Up

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Antonello Ferraiuolo raised it up from early position and was called by Medet Kilinc on the button and Raul Talavera in the big blind. The flop came {q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and the action checked to Kilnic who pushed all in for around 35,000. Talavera stuck in the last of his 20,400 chips and Ferraiuolo called having both players covered.

Raul Talavera: {k-Diamonds}{4-Spades}
Medet Kilinc: {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}
Antonello Ferraiuolo: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Talavera flopped trip fours to hold a commanding lead. The {a-Spades} on the turn and the {9-Clubs} on the river changed nothing as Talavera tripled up and Ferraiuolo took the side pot.
