Bluem Makes a Premature Exit

David Salituro

Level 17 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Samuel Auer-Klintmalm raised to 42,000 in early position, and Bastian Bluem called off his last 40,000 in the small blind.

Bastian Bluem: 10♣9♥4♦2♦ All in
Samuel Auer-Klintmalm: A♦A♣10♦3♥

Bluem had run into Auer-Klintmalm's aces and was already up from his seat as the flop came K♦J♠5♦. He was about to leave the table as the 3♠ fell on the turn.

"Hold the chair," tablemate Krzysztof Magott told him as Bluem had picked up a straight draw, and he made his straight on the 6♠ river to miraculously survive.

Level 17 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Anh Do raised to 27,000 under the gun and Bjorn Verbakel called on the button. Veselin Karakitukov then three-bet to 120,000 in the small blind, and only Verbakel called with just 25,000 remaining

The flop came 7♥5♣4♠ and Karakitukov tossed in a chip to put Verbakel all in. Verbakel committed the rest of his stack.

Bjorn Verbakel: A♣Q♥10♦7♣ All in
Veselin Karakitukov: K♦K♣9♦3♦

Verbakel needed to improve against Karakitukov's kings, but he couldn't connect with the 2♠ turn or 8♠ river and was sent to the rail.

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

With around 160,000 in the pot on a flop of Q♦9♠J♥, Tamazi Skhirtladze slid forward a tower of chips from the small blind and Dimitrios Michailidis called for his last 85,000 in the big blind.

Dimitrios Michailidis: A♠K♠9♣2♦ All in
Tamazi Skhirtladze: A♣Q♣J♣10♦

Skhirtladze was ahead with top two pair, while Michailidis had a pair and straight draw. The 6♦ turn and 4♠ river were no help to Michailidis, and Skhirtladze scored the knockout.

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

With around 200,000 in the middle to the A♣7♠4♦5♠ turn, Puk Nabuurs was all-in for some 220,000 with the K♥8♥7♦6♠ for the nut straight at that time. He was up against Martin Schamaun with the A♠7♣2♠2♣ for two pair and the spade flush draw. The river was the A♦ and Schamaun paired up to a full house.

Shortly after, Dennis Weiss departed from the same table as well.

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

After their previous big clash, Markus Schweiger and Mikkel Plum got the chips into the middle once more with Schweiger at risk for around 45,000.

Markus Schweiger: K♦J♣10♠6♥ All in
Mikkel Plum: A♠Q♣Q♠8♠

The board ran out A♦K♣2♠5♠K♠ and Schweiger gasped an "what's that shit" in German (Was zum Teufel), when Plum rivered the flush to end the job he had started not long ago.

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

With around 130,000 in the pot on a flop of J♣K♦6♣, Massimiliano Zanasi moved all in for 50,000 from the small blind and Markus Sturz called in the hijack.

Massimiliano Zanasi: A♥Q♦J♠9♣ All in
Markus Sturz: J♦10♣9♠7♦

Zanasi was ahead with his pair of jacks, ace-kicker, while Sturz had a straight draw. The 5♦ turn also gave him a flush draw, and Sturz hit his flush on the 8♦ river to send Zanazi to the rail.
