David Salituro

Level 33 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Bogdan Roman raised to 400,000 in the cutoff and Vagke Sagkinian called on the button. Martin Vittek then moved all in for 2,515,000 in the small blind, Roman folded, while Sagkinian called to put him at risk.

Martin Vittek: Q♥Q♣ All in
Vagke Sagkinian: A♦Q♦

Vittek had woken up with another big pocket pair and was a favorite to double up as the flop came Q♠3♠8♣, giving him the last queen in the deck and top set. The rest of the board came 2♣K♦ and Vittek doubled up.

Level 33 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Heger Sare raised to 400,000 in the cutoff and Jan Kohl called on the button, as did Stepan Budac in the big blind.

The flop came 8♦5♦6♣ and action checked to Kohl, who bet 700,000. Budac then raised to 1,800,000.

Sare folded, while Kohl used two time banks until he also sent his cards into the muck.

Level 33 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Robin Meyer shoved from middle position for 905,000 and Martin Vittek also moved all in for 805,000 in the cutoff. Sarah Link was on the button and shoved, which resulted in a three-way all-in.

Martin Vittek: K♠K♣ All in
Robin Meyer: Q♠J♥ All in
Sarah Link: 9♦9♣

If Link could find a way to win the hand, she would secure the rest of the field a Main Event ticket. It was Vittek that kept his lead through the 3♣A♣2♥ flop, and the 2♠ river meant Meyer was drawing dead. A 10♠ on the turn changed nothing, which meant Meyer was out and Vittek tripled up.

Javier Francort: K♥10♠ All in
Tudor Zapsa: A♠Q♦

Both players hit a pair on the A♣K♦2♣ flop, while Zapsa remained in the lead with his aces. The J♣ turn gave Francort outs to a straight, but he missed the 7♦ river and was eliminated in 13th place.

Level 33 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Robert Dascalescu raised to 425,000 on the button and Javier Francort shoved the small blind for close to 6,000,000. Heger Sare was in the big blind and snap-called for his stack of around 3,500,000, and Dascalescu let it go.

Heger Sare: K♠K♦ All in
Javier Francort: A♦J♦

It was a huge pot on the line, and one that favored the cowboys of Sare, who remained in the lead through the 4♥2♣6♣ flop. A 6♥ on the turn left Francort one card away from a short stack, and the 7♠ river meant he had to fork over the bulk of his chips to his neighbor.

Sascha Hausner moved all in for 500,000 on the button, Jan Kohl reshoved in the small blind, and Tudor Zapsa gave up his big blind.

Sascha Hausner: 9♦8♦ All in
Jan Kohl: A♣J♦

The 10♦7♥9♥ flop gave Hausner the lead with a pair and straight draw, leaving Kohl looking only for an ace to win the pot. The turn was the 5♠, but Kohl found his ace on the A♠ river to win the pot and send Hausner to the rail in 14th place.

Level 33 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Sascha Hausner's stack isn't doing too well right now, and he is down to 500,000 after defended his big blind and then folded to a flop bet.

Shortly after, Javier Francort opened the cutoff and Jan Kohl defended his big blind.

They went to a flop of 8♠2♦9♣, where both checked to the 10♥ turn. Kohl bet 300,000, and Francort called to see the 10♦ pair the board on the river. Kohl grabbed a stack of chips and before they touched the table to confirm the bet, Francort folded.

Sarah Link raised to 320,000 in early position with Q♥J♥, Bogdan Roman three-bet to 900,000 on the button, and Link called.

Both players checked the A♣4♠7♦ flop. Link then bet 350,000 on the 9♠ turn and Roman called.

The river was the A♠ and Link bet another 2,000,000. Roman burned through multiple time banks and took more than a minute before folding A♦8♦.

Level 32 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Stepan Budac raised to 320,000 on the button and was called by Robert Dascalescu and Javier Francort in the blinds.

Budac continued for 320,000 on the 7♦9♣Q♥ flop and both opponents called. He then bet 680,000 on the A♦ turn, and this time Dascalescu and Francort quickly folded.

Sascha Hausner then opened to 325,000 under the gun, Heger Sare moved all in for 1,760,000 in the big blind, and Hausner nearly beat him into the pot with a call.

Heger Sare: J♣J♦ All in
Sascha Hausner: A♣K♣

Sare was racing for his tournament life, and the 10♥7♦7♥5♦8♥ board was safe for his jacks to earn him the double up. Hausner slammed the table, then got up and kicked a metal barrier surrounding the table before handing over the chips.
