Gude Raises the Flop; Gallitzendoerfer Takes From Di Giacomo

David Salituro

Level 26 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Murilo Garcia raised to 200,000 in the cutoff and was called by Bastian Gallitzendoerfer and Matthias Gude in the blinds.

The flop came Q♦3♦5♣ and Garcia bet 150,000. Gallitzendoerfer called, but Gude raised to 350,000. Both opponents quickly folded.

"I wanted to see you bust him. The entire day, he was like, 'I'm going to bust you. ' It would've been karma," Robert Ashelm said to Ivan Banic about the departed Martin Kabrhel.

"And I made the orbit," Banic replied, harking back to their proposed €1 million bet earlier.

Gallitzendoerer then raised to 220,000 in the cutoff, and Claudio Di Giacomo called in the big blind.

Gallitzendoerfer bet 300,000 on the Q♦4♥3♥ flop and Di Giacomo called. The turn was the 2♠, and Gallitzendoerfer bet 450,000. Di Giacomo again called.

The 5♥ river was checked down, and Di Giacomo showed 7♠3♠ for a pair of threes, but Gallitzendoerfer had Q♥J♣ for queens to win the pot.

"Who busted Martin?" Max Neugebauer asked as he wandered over from the other table.

"Himself," Banic replied.

Level 26 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Max Neugebauer opened to 200,000 in the cutoff and Jonas Lauck three-bet to 750,000 in the small blind. Catalin Pop then moved all in for 2,640,000 in the big blind, Neugebauer folded, while Lauck snap-called.

Catalin Pop: A♥A♦ All in
Jonas Lauck: A♠K♥

Pop was on the right side of the massive cooler and was poised for a double up as the flop came J♠9♥2♠. Lauck made a pair on the K♦ turn, but he improved no further on the 8♣ river and Pop took the pot.

Martin Kabrhel Eliminated in 14th Place (€52,400)

Level 26 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel was the chip leader on the final three and the final two tables; he even had a big stack when play resumed after the dinner break. What was left now was an open-shove from the button for 490,000.

No Casino Royale, "for the bracelet." Just "four hundred ninety."

Murilo Garcia, in the big blind, made the call, and they were off to the races.

Martin Kabrhel: K♥J♠ All in
Murilo Garcia: 7♣7♦

The Q♣5♠2♥9♣8♦ board changed nothing, and Kabrhel stayed silent throughout the entire showdown and then quickly vanished from the tournament area. His 14th place comes with a payday of €52,400, but a possible sixth WSOP gold bracelet at the King's Resort has to wait another year.

Daniel Pidun raised to 200,000 under the gun with A♠9♠ and Max Neugebauer defended 9♥9♣.

The flop came J♦7♠5♠ and Pidun bet 225,000. Neugebauer called and the 6♠ fell on the turn, giving Pidun the nut flush.

Both players checked to the 5♥ river where Neugebauer led out for 150,000. Pidun then raised to 475,000, and Neugebauer laid down his pair.

Bastian Gallitzendoerfer came in for a raise to 300,000 from the cutoff, and only Claudio Di Giacomo called from the big blind.

The two players checked to the river on the K♣6♣8♣2♠8♥ runout before Di Giacomo bet 375,000. Gallitzendoerfer folded, and Di Giacomo revealed top pair with the K♠.

Level 26 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Claudio Di Giacomo raised it up to 200,000 from an early position and was called only by Bastian Gallitzendoerfer in the small blind. It was then Gallitzendoerfer who bet the 10♣9♦2♠ flop for 250,000 and Di Giacomo called. The action repeated on the 3♠ turn, albeit for 450,000, and Di Giacomo used the full 30-second shot clock before coming along.

Gallitzendoerfer bet another 500,000 on the 10♥ river, and once Di Giacomo called, the German tapped the table. No cards were shown, as Gallitzendoerfer sent his into the muck and allowed Di Giacomo to win the pot without any showdown whatsoever.

The flop came K♣J♦4♥ and Karlic bet 150,000. Jaatinen called before both players checked through the 6♠ turn.

Karlic resumed betting on the 10♦ river, putting out 725,000. Jaatinen took a minute before calling with J♥8♣ for a pair of jacks, but Karlic had K♥9♠ for kings to win the pot.

Robert Ashelm raised to 225,000 in early position and Ivan Banic moved all in for 1,030,000 on the button. Bastian Gallitzendoerfer then reraised to 1,800,000 in the big blind, and Ashelm stood up from his seat and let out a deep sigh before folding.

Ivan Banic: A♣A♦ All in
Bastian Gallitzendoerfer: J♣J♥

Banic had Gallitzendoerfer crushed with his aces, and the board ran out 8♦6♥3♣9♣4♠ to earn him the double up.

Level 26 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Catalin Pop raised under the gun with A♦2♦ to 200,000. Dimitrios Gkatzas called from the hijack and Jonas Lauck defended his big blind.

All three checked the 4♠5♦6♦ flop to see the 7♠ hit the turn. Lauck bet 500,000, which only Gkatzas called.

The 8♦ completed the board, and Lauck used a time bank before sliding out a bet of 1,800,000. Gkatzas called and Lauck revealed A♥10♠ for a bluff. Gkatzas revealed 9♠9♣ for a nine-high straight and the pot was given to him.
