Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Vitaliy Kryza moved all in for 480,000 in the cutoff and Dino Volkholz called in middle position.

Vitaliy Kryza: A♣10♣
Dino Volkholz: A♥Q♣

Both players hit their ace on the 9♠A♠K♦ flop, but Volkholz remained in the lead with queen-kicker. The Q♥ turn improved him to two pair and left Kryza drawing only to a straight or chop, but instead the 9♥ fell and Kryza was sent off to the exit.

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Adrian Constantin had a raise to 160,000 in front of him from early position as action went on Simone Pascucci, who moved all in for 800,000 on the button.

Constantin tanked for several minutes before he picked up his cards and began shuffling them between his hands. "Tens," Pascucci asked.

Constantin nodded his head and tossed 10♦10♠ into the muck. Pascucci took the pot without showing.

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Heads-up on a board of Q♠6♣2♠K♥, Felipe Ketzer bet 215,000 from the button and Giovanni Giudice called in the big blind.

The river came the 9♣ and Ketzer used some of the new white 100,000 chips to bet 530,000. Giudice again called and Ketzer opened up K♣J♠ for a pair of kings.

Giudice let out a loud groan as he flashed the K♠ and mucked, awarding the big pot to Ketzer.

A Family Pot for Mazza-Boussemart

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

After he won a big pot thanks to a full house, Mazza-Boussemart limped from the small blind after three players limped before him. The big blind checked, making it a five-way pot.

However, even with all these players, nobody bet on the flop 5♥K♥7♦. The same situation occurred on the turn 9♠ and on the river Q♥!

First to reveal his cards, Mazza-Boussemart showed only the 7♥. The big blind and the player under the gun folded, as well as the hijack. But Stephan Schalk in middle position also showed a seven, the 7♠.

"I have a better kicker?" Mazza-Boussemart asked, while flipping over the A♦. The answer is yes, as Schalk sent his cards into the muck.

Giuseppe Mazza-Boussemart	2,800,000 1,700,000	1,700,000

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Anthony Mahaut opened to 50,000 from the hijack and was three-bet to 130,000 by Paolo Concetti on the button. Action folded back around to Mahaut, who called.

Mahaut check-called an 80,000 bet from Concetti on the A♠8♦3♠ flop and then both players checked down on the J♠ turn and Q♦ river.

"You win," Mahaut said as he revealed 7♠7♦. Concetti tabled K♦J♦ for a turned pair of jacks and collected the pot.

Uncommon Straight for Samual

Maxime Taldir

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Down to 102,000 chips, Giuseppe Montella moved all in from middle position. All the other players folded to Darius Samual in the big blind, who called with a very loose hand.

Giuseppe Montella: 2♥2♠
Darius Samual: 7♥4♦

Standing up two meters behind his chair, Montella seemed nervous. And he had reasons to be nervous as Samual hit a straight draw on 5♥J♠3♣. The 6♥ on the turn completed the straight, and Montella was eliminated after the river 3♦.

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Cedric Jaby moved all in for 165,000 in middle position as action folded to Giovanni Petroni, who snap-called in the big blind.

Cedric Jaby: A♥10♥
Giovanni Petroni: K♠K♣

Jaby had walked right into Petroni's kings, but the flop gave him new life as the dealer turned over A♣10♠5♦ and Jaby made two pair. He improved to a full house on the 10♣ turn, and Petroni couldn't find one of the remaining kings on the 6♦ river as Jaby doubled up.
