Tina Bajric raised to 25,000 in the hijack and "Appie" called in the cutoff. Ariel Daci then three-bet to 88,000 in the small blind, seeing both players call.

Daci bet 275,000 on the 9♥5♦2♠ flop. Bajric called before "Appie" threw in his final 47,000 to be all-in. Daci then committed his final 62,000 on the 7♥ turn and was quickly called by Bajric.

"Appie": A♦J♦9♠8♠ All in
Ariel Daci: A♠K♦Q♥5♠
Tina Bajric: A♣Q♦9♦2♦

The 6♦ river gave "Appie" a straight for the win. Bajric took the side pot with a pair of nines while Daci left the tournament area with his pair of fives.

Gergo Nagy had gone all in for 53,000 from the big blind and was called by Nikola Minkov in the cutoff and Maksim Shuts on the button.

Minkov then checked to Shuts on the 5♦8♣3♠ flop before Shuts put him all-in for 133,000. Minkov mulled it over for a bit and then committed a call.

Gergo Nagy: K♣8♥7♠6♣ All in
Nikola Minkov: A♥Q♠Q♣6♠
Maksim Shuts: A♦Q♦J♠10♦

The 9♥ turn gave Nagy a straight, but the 10♠ river made Shuts a better straight to take down the pot and knock out two players.

Niveau 8 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Life Outside Poker is a new podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.

In the 19th episode, Connor speaks with former poker pro Eugene Katchalov, one of Ukraine's all-time money leaders who fled the country in 2022 after Russia's invasion and has since returned to the war-torn region with his family.

Katchalov, a former PokerStars ambassador, talked about growing up in New York City, his poker glory days and 2007 Doyle Brunson Five Diamond World Poker Classic victory for $2.5 million, returning to Ukraine and misconceptions about the longstanding conflict with Russia. He also discussed his venture into esports and new plans to get back into poker with a project aimed at leveling the playing field between pros and recreationals.

The Life Outside Poker podcast is available on major streaming platforms including Apple Podcasts, Spotify and iHeartRadio. You can also watch the interview with Eugene Katchalov by heading to the PokerNews YouTube channel.

Niveau 8 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Tom-Aksel Bedell in the big blind, Sonny Franco in middle position, and "Appie" in the hijack went all in on a flop of 4♠2♠9♦.

Sonny Franco: A♠A♦5♣3♥ All in
Tom-Aksel Bedell: 7♦6♥5♥2♦ All in
"Appie": Q♠Q♦8♦8♣

Bedell made two pair on the 7♣ turn to take the lead. The 10♠ river did not upgrade anyone, seeing Bedell knock out Franco. Meanwhile, his 104,000 chips were doubled by "Appie", who was left with merely ten big blinds.

Niveau 8 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

In a pot worth 225,000, Max Kruse checked from the big blind on a turn of 4♦10♣J♣Q♥. Burak Simsek then jammed all in for 198,000 in middle position, after which Vasili Firsau reshoved from the cutoff.

Kruse let out a few curse words and then folded JxJx face-up.

Burak Simsek: A♥9♥8♥7♠ All in
Vasili Firsau: K♣Q♠Q♣8♦

The 5♦ river changed nothing. Simsek's straight won him the pot as Firsau could not hit a flush or full house to best him.

In a pot of roughly 100,000, Vasil Medarov put in his last 123,000 from the small blind on a flop of 3♠6♠J♦ and Tina Bajric called under the gun.

Vasil Medarov: K♣Q♥3♥3♣ All in
Tina Bajric: J♥8♥6♥2♣

Both players made a full house on the 6♦ turn, but Bajric had the higher one. The 7♣ river changed nothing as she sent Medarov home during her resurgence to a top stack.
