Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Mikolaj Zawadzki bet 11,000 from early position on a flop of 6♥5♠K♠ and Knut Karnapp called on the button. Michele Tocci then raised to 38,000 in the small blind, and both opponents called.

Action checked to Karnapp on the 6♠ turn and he moved all in for 42,000. Tocci reshoved and Zawadzki quickly folded.

Karnapp turned over A♠J♠ for a flush, but Tocci had 5♦5♥ for a full house. The river was the 2♣ and Tocci, who finished third in this event in 2023, scored the knockout.

Kai Cocklin

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

With around 40,000 in the pot on a J♠8♥K♦ flop, Piotr Szymczak checked from the small blind and Ferdinando D'alessio fired 8,000 from middle position. Szymczak called.

A 7♥ hit the turn and another check came in from Szymczak, beofre D'alessio bet 22,000. Once again, Szymczak called.

When the 7♠ paired the board on the river, Szymczak shoved for 60,5000, which sent D'alessio into the tank. After some time, he eventually called and saw that Szymczak had a bluff with A♣10♦.

D'alessio then revealed he had turned a straight with 10♠9♠ to earn the pot and the knockout.

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Tyson Strauss opened to 4,000 under the gun, and received a call from Bastian Gallitzendoerfer in the next seat, before Urmo Velvelt produced a three-bet to 20,000 from the small blind.

Strauss reached for chips to produce a small four-bet to 32,000, and Gallitzendoerfer called. Velvelt took advantage of the fact action had been reopened to five-bet jam for 141,000 total.

Strauss rejammed, and Gallitzendoerfer sighed, and quickly open-folded 10♠10♦.

Urmo Velvelt: K♣K♠ All in
Tyson Strauss: A♥A♦

In a brutal cooler, Velvelt had run cowboys into rockets, and there was no escape on the Q♠10♣7♣8♠J♣ runout, the regret plain to see on Gallitzendoerfer's face when the ten hit on the flop.

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

After two checks on the 2♣A♣4♥ flop, Patrik Jaros bet 8,000 from middle position and Bastian Gallitzendoerfer called from the big blind. Michail Manolakis check-jammed for 37,000 from early position and Jaros put in another raise, forcing Gallitzendoerfer to fold.

Michail Manolakis: Q♣J♣ All in
Patrik Jaros: A♥3♥

Manolakis held a flush draw against the top pair of Jaros. Manolakis remained unimproved on the 7♦ turn and 4♦ river, which meant all of his chips were absorbed into Jaros' stack.

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

A decent pot of 68,000 had developed by the river, on a board of K♥J♣10♦5♥5♣, in a hand between Yannick Jobin under the gun, and Rudolf De Boer on the button.

Jobin checked, and De Boer fired out a big bet of 65,000. Jobin went into the tank, and the clock was called by a table mate after around three minutes.

As time was about to elapse, Jobin called, but was shown the bad news when De Boer tabled A♠5♠ for trip fives, Jobin shaking his head in disbelief at the runout.
