Kai Cocklin

Level 21 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Peter Strucka shoved under the gun for 92,000 and Johann Schamne called in the cutoff.

Peter Strucka: 3♥3♣ All in
Johann Schamne: A♠Q♦

Strucka needed to win a flip with his pocket threes, but the A♦10♦J♥ flop was far from ideal as Schamne flopped a pair and a straight draw. The 8♦4♥ runout didn't offer Strucka any improvement, and he headed to the exit.

Matei Lupascu: A♥K♠ All in
Lukas Timko: K♣J♦

Ouertani Falls to Timko's Aces

Kai Cocklin

Level 21 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Wissam Ouertani opened the hijack and Mariusz Klabisch called on the button. Frederikus Roelfsema also called in the small blind before Lukas Timko three-bet the big blind to 110,000. Ouertani then shoved 220,000, which got two folds before Timko snap-called,

Wissam Ouertani: A♥Q♠ All in
Lukas Timko: A♠A♣

Timko had the goods and Ouertani was already on his feet ready to depart. The 3♥5♦4♠ flop did give both players a gutshot, but it was Timko that improved on the A♦ turn as he made a set.

Only a deuce could save Ouertani, but no ducks were in this river as the J♠ rolled off, sending him to the rail.

Richard Hayes

Level 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Toni Ravnak raised to 30,000 from the small blind, and Michal Schuh defended the big blind.

On the 10♦7♣6♣ flop, Ravnak check-called versus a bet of 25,000 from Schuh.

The Q♦ hit on the turn, and Ravnak checked once more. Schuh fired out a bet of 40,000, and was met with a check-jam from Ravnak with the covering stack. Schuh didn't take long before committing his 146,000 total stack to the middle.

Michal Schuh: Q♥8♥ All in
Toni Ravnak: 9♣6♠

Schuh was ahead with top pair queens versus Ravnak's fourth pair and straight draw, and the K♣ river was a brick to send him the double-up.

Isaienko's Kicker Plays to Stack Mueller

Kai Cocklin

Level 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Tobias Mueller shoved from early position for 57,000 and Roman Isaienko took one peek at his cards from the big blind before he called.

Tobias Mueller: A♦4♥ All in
Roman Isaienko: A♠7♠

Mueller was hoping for a four or perhaps a chop, but the latter seemed unlikely on the K♠3♦6♣ flop. A Q♦ turn put Mueller one step closer to the rail, and the 5♥ river sent him there as the kicker of Isaienko played.

Beretta Doesn't Hold Fire against Lupascu

Richard Hayes

Level 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

An absolute mountain of chips had accumulated in the middle, at least 220,000, in a hand between Luca Beretta on the button and Matei Lupascu in the big blind, with the board reading K♠Q♥9♣8♣.

The turn was checked to the 7♣ river, where Lupascu fired out a bet of 85,000. Beretta didn't take long before jamming for 218,000, sending Lupascu into the tank.

After around a minute of thought, looking pained, Lupascu flicked his cards to the dealer.

Player	Chips	Progress
Luca Beretta	418,000 348,000	348,000
Matei Lupascu	266,000 254,000	254,000

Adato's Aces Stack Mao

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Kai Cocklin

Level 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Asaf Adato opened the hijack to 22,000 and Mohamad Habhab called on the button. Renji Mao was in the big blind and shoved 251,000, and Adato shoved a little over 300,000. Habhab was pondering how to proceed, then revealed K♦Q♦ before he folded.

Renji Mao: A♠4♠ All in
Asaf Adato: A♦A♣

Mao was crushed by the aces of Adato, and found nothing to work with on the 6♦8♦6♣ flop. Habhab was pleading for no diamond, and he got his wish as the 10♣9♣ runout meant he would have missed his flush draw. Mao was already up and out of his seat, which gave Adato a stack of around 600,000.
