Slacanac Runs Into Scherle's Set

David Salituro

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Fabian Scherle had a bet of 30,000 in front of him on the button with the flop showing J♠9♥8♣ and Marco Slacanac raised to 56,000 in the big blind. Scherle pondered the decision for a few minutes before moving all in, and Slacanac called for around 30,000 more.

Marco Slacanac: J♦8♥ All in
Fabian Scherle: 9♦9♣

Slacanac showed two pair, but Scherle had a set of nines and held up on the K♦ turn and 7♠ river to send Slacanac to the rail.

"You cannot fold a set there," tablemate Rachid El Yaacoubi told him.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Arriving on a completed board of K♠5♠5♦6♣9♣, big blind Egor Procop put Sebastien Grax in middle position all-in for 75,000. The pot amounted to 70,000 before that, and Grax tanked for a minute.

Eventually, he slammed in a call. Procop tabled 9♦5♥ for a full house. Grax tried to muck his K♣10♠ but the dealer flipped it up as per the rules. He quickly took his exit, seeing Procop chip up to more than 100 big blinds.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Tamer Kamel raised to 6,000 from the hijack and Nolan Curatolo called on the button. Edgaras Kausinis three-bet shoved for 60,000 which only Kamei called.

Edgaras Kausinis: K♦10♦ All in
Tamer Kamel: K♣Q♣

The board ranout J♣7♦3♣A♠6♦ and Kamel's king-queen high would earn him the pot while sending Kausinis to the rail.

Rollercoaster of Emotions For Passaro

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Gabriele Passaro had gotten his stack of around 60,000 into the middle and Philipp Hartwig had shoved behind for 180,000. Marcello Manganiello was contemplating whether to call but elected to fold and showed A♦K♦ face up.

Gabriele Passaro: 7♥7♦ All in
Philipp Hartwig: A♣K♣

"Nooo," said Passaro as he saw the A♥ in the window of the flop.

"YESSSSS," he shouted as the 4♣7♣ followed it, which improved him to a set. However, Hartwig had picked up a flush draw and completed it on the 2♣ turn, yet Passaro hadn't seen it as he had turned away from the table upon realizing he hit a set. When Passaro turned back, he saw the J♣ land on the river and then understood that he had been eliminated.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Arriving on a flop of 10♦8♣4♣, Gyula Rapolti checked from middle position to Adi Rajkovic on the button. Rajkovic added 25,000 to the pot of 60,000, which Rapolti called.

The 7♣ turn was then checked through before Rajkovic jammed all in on the 4♦ river after Rapolti had checked. Rapolit asked for a count and tanked for a minute or so before making the call.

Rajkovic stood up as he tabled 7♠6♠ for a pair of sevens, while Rapolti had called the big shove of 154,000 with A♣J♣ for a flush. He raked in the pot and soared in the counts while Rajkovic was eliminated.

Kristen Foxen was also seated at this table with a short stack, but was busted not long after Rajkovic had departed.

Ignas Vaitulionis: K♠J♦ All in
Sergi Reixach: J♣10♠

Vaitulionis was a favorite to win the hand, but he could only laugh as the 10♥10♦9♦6♠2♥ board gave Reixach trips. He took his exit in stride as about half of the field remained.
