Domination Rotation Sees El Yaacoubi Send Off Aghaie

Ryan Lashmar

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

Rachid El Yaacoubi opened to 50,000 from the hijack and Armin Aghaie three-bet to 225,000 from the small blind. El Yaacoubi made the call.

The flop came J♣8♦5♥ and El Yaacoubi called a 150,000 continuation bet from Aghaie.

Aghaie moved all in for 610,000 on the 8♣ turn and was once again called by El Yaacoubi who held a covering stack.

Armin Aghaie: A♣Q♠ All in
Rachid El Yaacoubi: A♦J♦

Aghaie was drawing to only three outs and couldn't find a queen on the 7♣ river, resulting in his elimination while El Yaacoubi took down another sizable pot.

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

Simone Ramakers checked under the gun on a turn of 7♣J♥Q♣9♣. Krasimir Yankov then piled his last 225,000 into the pot of 275,000. Ramakers called, claiming to have "nothing yet."

Krasimir Yankov: K♥Q♥ All in
Simone Ramakers: A♠10♣

Ramakers' nothing would stay nothing on the 4♥ river. Yankov doubled up while Ramakers was left with a stack of less than 15 big blinds.

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

Boris Angelov raised to 50,000 under the gun and Andrea Ricci three-bet to 150,000 in early position. Angelov then four-bet to 390,000 and Ricci five-bet to 650,000. Angelov moved all in for 1,200,000 and Ricci practically beat him into the pot.

Boris Angelov: A♣K♣ All in
Andrea Ricci: A♥A♦

Angelov had run into Ricci's aces and was already drawing dead by the turn as the board ran out 7♣8♦6♠6♥9♠. The massive pot was pushed over to Ricci, while Angelov was sent crashing to the rail.

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

Gediminas Dirmantas shoved for roughly 110,000 from early position with Urmo Velvelt calling from the big blind to try and bust him.

Gediminas Dirmantas: A♥J♣ All in
Urmo Velvelt: Q♠10♣

Dirmantas flopped top pair on the 7♠K♥A♠ flop but had to avoid the gutshot straight draw of Velvelt. The 2♦ turn or 6♥ river didn't help Velvelt, and Dirmantas had doubled up.

Urmo Velvelt	1,350,000 200,000	200,000

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

Yannick Jobin raised to 40,000 from the hijack with Luka Bojovic three-bet shoving for 250,000 from the small blind. Luka Bojovic jammed over the top with the covering stack out of the big blind and Jobin folded.

Istvan Pilhofer: A♠7♠ All in
Luka Bojovic: 10♥10♠

The J♠2♣8♠ flop offered Pilhofer a flush draw, but he couldn't hit it on the Q♣ turn or 3♦ river and all of his chips were sent over to Bojovic.

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

Dietrich Fast moved all in for 450,000 from the cutoff and Yehor Shumeiko put him at risk in middle position.

Dietrich Fast: Q♠J♠ All in
Yehor Shumeiko: K♥K♦

Fast had run into Shumeiko's kings and was at risk of elimination until the flop came Q♣J♥5♦ to give him top two pair and the lead. The rest of the board ran out 8♠10♦ and Fast doubled up, leaving Shumeiko with just one chip.

"You cannot post this," Fast joked with the cameramen who surrounded the table as the pot was pushed to him.
