Korotkikh Triples
Niveau 12
: 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
For those that haven't seen Mikhail Korotkikh in action yet, he does like to celebrate double ups quite loudly for the entire tournament room to hear. This just happened again, though this time it was even a triple up. Arriving on the 
turn, Dong Zhao and Alexander Uskov checked and floor staff confirmed that Korotkikh had been all in before the flop for 69,800 with both opponents calling.
They also checked the 
river five minutes into the break and Zhao flashed 
, Uskov the 
. What followed was the loud scream by Korotkikh, who tabled 
for the win!

Stern Busts Neumann and Johnson
Niveau 12
: 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
The action started with a raise to 4,800 by Zvi Stern and the November Niner found three callers in Keith Johnson, David Dayan and Quan Zhou. In the small blind, Marko Neumann moved all in for 34,700 and Stern flat-called only to see Johnson then move in as well for around 65,000. Stern called and put the two short stacks at risk once Dayan and Zhou had folded.
Neumann: 
Johnson: 
Stern: 
"Oh, that's slightly difficult, diamonds please," Neumann said. Instead, the flop came 
and Johnson stood up from his chair ready to leave. Neither the turn nor the river changed anything and Stern soared up to more than half a million.
