Calum Grant

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Mengshi Tian and Martin Kabrhel exchanged raises preflop, that saw Tian four-bet shove for 426,000. Kabrhel, who covered by 77,000, called.

Mengshi Tian: Q♠J♣ All in
Martin Kabrhel: J♥J♠

Kabrhel was en route to being one of the chip leaders, with Tian drawing to three outs. The 6♦3♠7♠ flop kept him ahead but the Q♥ turn left Kabrhel drawing to one out, which didn't arrive on the 4♠ river.

Tian then eliminated short stack Mattheus van Donselaar, with pocket fours holding.

Shortly after, Kabrhel raised to 76,000 from early position, leaving 1,000 behind. Rama Mulaj called from the big blind.

It checked through to the river, where the board read: 4♥3♣8♣K♥4♠. Mulaj check-called for Kabrhel's last chip.

Kabrhel tabled 10♠10♥, beating A♠6♦, to double-up.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Adrian State jammed for 35,000 from under the gun. Hugo Jimenez called from middle position, and Martin Kabrhel joined the action from the button with a loud "call".

The dealer fanned a flop of K♥8♣8♦. Kabrhel bet 20,000 and Jimenez immediately check-folded.

Adrian State: A♣3♣ All in
Martin Kabrhel: 10♥9♣

"Ah you have nothing," Kabrhel said while revealing his hand. He began his famous line "Casino…" on the 7♦ turn and finished it with "…Royale" by hitting the J♥ river for a runner-runner straight. "Unlucky, you played well," he added to State, who was eliminated.
