Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Felipe Ketzer and Vincent Skolin had tangled with each other in a few pots so far today, and their latest encounter would prove to be their final one.

Ketzer had a raise to 100,000 in front of him from early position and Skolin called under the gun. The flop came 4♥6♣9♣ and Ketzer bet enough to put Skolin all in, and Skolin called for around 300,000.

Vincent Skolin: 7♠7♦
Felipe Ketzer: 8♦8♥

Skolin had run into a bigger pair and the board ran out 10♦3♦ to send him off to collect his payout.

Dogan Guengoer raised to 41,000 from middle position, and Marius Gicovanu called from the big blind.

On the flop J♣4♦6♣, Guengoer bet 65,000, and Gicovanu check-called.

Then on the turn 2♦, Guengoer fired a second barrel of 165,000. Gicovanu waited a few seconds, and eventually check-folded. Guengoer showed the K♦, and scooped the pot.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Mikael Hen opened to 40,000 from under the gun and action folded around to Djamal Boutaleb, who shoved for approximately 370,000. Djadid Arifovski also went all in for less on the button, and Matthew Davenport also went all in for around 1,200,000. Hen got out of the way and a three-way showdown was held.

Djadid Arifovski: A♣Q♦
Djamal Boutaleb: 4♦4♣
Matthew Davenport: K♦K♠

The board ran out 9♥Q♠9♣5♣7♣ — keeping Davenport's kings in the lead for the double knockout.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action was caught when the dealer was counting the stacks of Stefan Petri in middle position, Maria Lampropulos in the hijack and Cedric Jaby in the cutoff, as all three of them moved all in preflop. Petri had the shortest stack, with 223,000 chips.

Stefan Petri: A♥J♣
Maria Lampropulos: K♣K♠
Cedric Jaby: A♦K♦

On 5♥J♦7♣J♥8♣, Petri was lucky enough to hit trips to triple up. With her kings, Lampropulos took the side pot but lost a big part of her stack.

Player	Chips	Progress
Stefan Petri	719,000 512,000	512,000
Cedric Jaby	270,000 210,000	210,000

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

[Removed:446] snapped a photo of a three-way all in encounter he was just involved in that catapulted up over 1,000,000.

"Big stack raise, short stack jam, I re-jam," Saran explained. Saran had A♥Q♠ and was up against A♦K♦ and A♠K♥.

The Q♣ fell right in the window, and the rest of the board came 9♠8♦5♠2♠ as Saran tripled up.

Saran is from Mongolia and is looking to promote the game in his home country. "It helps grow the game," he explained.

A Sad State of Affairs

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Adrian State shoved for his last 200,000 from the cutoff and was called by Ioannis Chaitas in the big blind to be put at risk.

Adrian State: A♥9♠
Ioannis Chaitas: 7♠7♥

The 8♠7♣6♦ flop improved Chaitas to a set, but State was still drawing live to a straight.

It wasn't meant to be, however, as the 8♦ turn improved Chaitas to a full house and left State drawing dead.

An irrelevant 9♥ completed the board and State was sent to the payout desk.
