Richard Hayes

Level 19 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Sylvia Langer was all-in for 55,000 and at risk against Giovanni Giudice.

Sylvia Langer: A♠10♠ All in
Giovanni Giudice: J♦10♦

Langer had Giudice dominated, but Giudice flopped top two on the J♣10♥7♣ flop.

The K♠ turn gave Langer some further outs to the straight, but the 3♣ river was a brick to send her to the rail early in Day 2.

Level 19 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Petre Anghel raised to 16,000 in the hijack before Villiel Kordonskiy moved all in for 40,000 from the cutoff. Andreas Rauh reshoved for 153,000 in the small blind, and Anghel folded.

Villiel Kordonskiy: A♠9♥ All in
Andreas Rauh: J♣J♦

Rauh had picked up jacks and was poised for the knockout as the board came 7♥4♦2♣8♣, but Kordonskiy caught the A♥ on the river to double up.

At another table, Gena Szilveszter was all in for 105,000 from the big blind and up against Jaroslav Peter in middle position.

Gena Szilveszter: K♦K♠ All in
Jaroslav Peter: A♣J♣

The flop came 9♥6♥7♣, while the 4♣ turn gave Peter additional outs with a flush draw. The 3♠ fell on the river and Szilveszter's kings held up to keep her tournament hopes alive.

Level 19 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

David Eiselt opened to 16,000 from the button, and was met with a three-bet jam from Lukas Benkovic in the small blind to 54,000.

The big blind got out of the way, and Eiselt flicked in a calling chip.

Lukas Benkovic: A♥J♠ All in
David Eiselt: A♣4♦

Benkovic had Eiselt crushed, and he made two pair across the K♠Q♠J♣8♣A♠ runout.

Level 19 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Dinesh Alt committed the majority of his 59,000-chip stack preflop, and then called off his last chips when Felix Kretschmann shoved the button.

Dinesh Alt: Q♦10♠ All in
Felix Kretschmann: 8♥8♣

Alt was flipping, but didn't find much to work with on the 5♣A♦4♣ flop. A 7♣ on the turn removed some of his outs as Kretschmann picked up a straight flush draw, which he connected with on the 6♣ river!

Elsewhere, Pascal Pflock had his stack of 27,000 in preflop from middle position against Andrei Spataru, who was in the cutoff.

Pascal Pflock: A♦4♣ All in
Andrei Spataru: Q♦J♦

Spataru turned a jack on the 9♣6♠K♥J♥7♣ runout, which was enough to send Pflock to the rail.

Level 19 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Akin Sarigoez opened from the hijack. Fotios Katidis in the cutoff three-bet to 100,000, Robert Bunn in the big blind moved all-in for 73,000 and Sarigoez folded.

Robert Bunn: A♦Q♥ All in
Fotios Katidis: A♠K♥

Katidis was in the lead, but Bunn was lucky enough to hit two pair on 5♣A♥7♦Q♦7♠ to double up.

Level 19 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Petru Tarlev moved all in for 125,000 in the hijack, Kevin Fluegel reshoved on the button, and the rest of the table got out of the way.

Petru Tarlev: Q♥J♦ All in
Kevin Fluegel: A♥Q♠

Tarlev found himself dominated and was already up from his seat as the flop came K♠7♠3♣. The rest of the board ran out 6♠K♥ and Fluegel's ace earned him the pot and sent Tarlev to the long payout line.

Vranken Slays Pichler's Kings

Level 19 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Dieter Pichler opened from early position and Antoine Vranken shoved from middle position for around 130,000. When it got back to Pichler, he called.

Antoine Vranken: 9♠9♦ All in
Dieter Pichler: K♠K♥

It was bad news for Vranken, who had run head first into the cowboys of Pichler. However, it looked like he would be bailed out as the J♣A♣9♥ flop gave him a set of nines. No kings were in sight on the 2♥6♣ runout, and Vranken doubled up.

Antoine Vranken	290,000 128,000	128,000

Level 19 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Marin Beslic in the hijack saw his 175,000-chip stack being called by Zoltan Vrancsik in the big blind.

Marin Beslic: A♦K♣ All in
Zoltan Vrancsik: A♠J♦

Beslic was on his way to double up, but he saw two pair appear on a board of 7♠7♥3♦10♣3♠ to make him split the pot.

Klaeser Shoves Into Aces

David Salituro

Level 19 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Martin Klaeser moved all in for his last 55,000 from early position and only Nico Frenn called in middle position.

Martin Klaeser: K♠9♠ All in
Nico Frenn: A♥A♣

Frenn showed down two aces and was a big favorite as the 2♠5♦2♦ flop left Klaeser drawing thin. The K♥ turn gave him a small glimmer of hope, but he missed the 10♦ river and was the latest in a growing line of players to hit the rail so far today.
