MattHansen

Niveau 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

A player raised to 60,000 from under the gun and Sergio Garcia Leon shoved for 640,000 from the next seat over. Action folded to Nikolay Ivanov in the big blind for a shove of us his own, but he had both players covered. The under-the-gun player got out of the way and action was heads up with Leon at risk.

Sergio Garcia Leon: 7♥7♣
Nikolay Ivanov: A♠K♦

The board ran out 2♥4♠Q♠6♥J♥ and Leon held on with pocket sevens to secure the double in the last level of the evening.

Niveau 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Damien Beziau opened to 65,000 from middle position and was called by Karl Urbin in the cutoff. Mohammed Bekheira then shoved for 230,000 from the big blind and Beziau called. Urbin got out of the way and a showdown was held.

Silva Rocha is a Big Deal Today

MattHansen

Niveau 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Action was heads up and Martynas Brazdzionis was seen gathering his things to leave the tournament area. The cards were still turned up and Lucas Silva Rocha was stacking chips.

Martynas Brazdzionis: A♦7♦
Lucas Silva Rocha: A♠J♠

The board had run out 2♦A♣7♣8♥J♥ to give Bazdzionis two pair on the flop, but a jack on the river gave Silva Rocha the pot with aces and jacks.

Silva Rocha is on a red-hot run on Day 2 and he is sitting well above two million chips.
