Holz and Peters Nearly Play Biggest Pot of the Tournament

Niveau 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Fedor Holz
Fedor Holz

Tobias Peters opened from middle position to see a flat from Quentin Guivarch in the cutoff. On the button, Fedor Holz put in a three-bet. Back on Peters, he clicked it to 242,000, forcing Guivarch to fold.

Action back on Holz, he moved all in for just over 1,000,000, and he had Peters slightly covered. Peters went well into the tank for about 4 minutes contemplating what would be a massive call. Eventually, he decided to lay it down.

"I almost called, it would have been crazy," said Peters.

"Crazy because you would have called with a bad hand?" replied Holz.

Sinclair Gets There to Send Ostlyngen Home

Niveau 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Jack Sinclair
Jack Sinclair

Jack Sinclair opened from under the gun before Sander Ostlyngen three-bet from the cutoff. Sinclair called and the two headed to a flop.

The dealer spread the {7-Spades}{j-Spades}{j-Hearts}. Sinclair checked in flow, and Ostlyngen continued for 35,000 into about 150,000. Sinclair put in the check-raise to 85,000. Ostlyngen called with about 180,000 behind.

The turn came the {6-Diamonds}. Sinclair moved all in, his big stack well covering Sinclair. Sinclair double-checked his cards and made the call.

Sander Ostlyngen: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Jack Sinclair: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}

Sinclair had the combo draw against the overpair with Ostlyngen needing to hold to keep his tournament alive. The river fell the {10-Spades} to bring Sinclair the flush. He now holds one of the biggest stacks in the room.

Burneikis' Runner-Runner Quads Sends Hallague Packing

Niveau 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Vladas Burneikis
Vladas Burneikis

Vladas Burneikis has climbed up the chip counts after a memorable hand at Table 28 that saw him hitting runner-runner quads to eliminate Yves Hallague.

While Burneikis couldn't relay the full action to PokerNews, table mate Daniel Heredi said it was a multi-way pot where Hallague moved all in on the flop of {k-Spades}{5-Clubs}{7-Spades} and got two callers, including Burneikis.

The board proceeded to run out {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} and Hallague likely thought his full house with {k-}{q-} would be good, but Burneikis showed him the bad news with {7-Clubs}{5-Hearts} to win the pot and bust the Frenchman in spectacular fashion.

Not more than five minutes later, another player at the table went on to hit quads with {3-}{3-}. But there won't be a third quad runout as the table broke shortly after.

Matrai Falls to Sandev

Niveau 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Georgi Sandev
Georgi Sandev

Georgi Sandev opened on the button and Andras Matrai three-bet jammed a stack of 192,000 from the small blind. Sandev called after getting a count.

Andras Matrai: {q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Georgi Sandev: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Sandev had made the right call to have his opponent pipped. The flop landed {10-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} to give him trips and Matrai couldn't make his gutshot as the board finished out {2-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} to improve Sandev to a full house and mark Matrai's elimination.

Amjad Nader open-jammed for 99,000 from middle position and Duman Vural re-shoved on the button to get the hand heads-up.

Amjad Nader: {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Duman Vural: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Nader needed help and got it from the flop of {a-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{5-Clubs} and his pair of aces held up to earn him a double as the board finished out {q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}.

Reigning Champ Alejandro Lococo Leads Day 2 of €1,100 Eureka Main Event

After four massive starting flights, the record-breaking field in the €1,100 Eureka Main Event at 2022 PokerStars European Poker Tour (EPT) Prague is down to 603 players who will return today for Day 2 at noon local time.

That's just a fraction of the 4,018 players who entered the event at Hilton Prague to generate a prize pool of €3,856,320 and smash the €3,028,800 prize pool generated at the previous stop in March. That event was won by PokerStars ambassador Alejandro Lococo, who managed to bag the overall chip lead in the event's latest offering.

Heading into the Day 2 action, the Argentinian battle rapper sits ahead of other big stacks Antoine Labat (957,000), Anton Suarez (915,000), Bart Fergiatakis (908,000) and Damir Savio (849,000).

Play on Day 2 will begin in Level 18 with the blinds at 4,000/8,000/8,000, with blind levels having increased to 60 minutes. Players will take 25-minute breaks after every two levels.

The four-day event will continue until the final day on Dec. 12 when a winner is crowned, who will earn the EPT Main Event trophy and the lion's share of the seven-figure prize pool.
