MaximeTaldir

Niveau 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Day 1b chip leader Daniel Koloszar open-shoved for 54,000 from the hijack, then Hussein Abud took his time before raising to 100,000 from the button. The blinds folded, and cards went on their backs.

Daniel Koloszar: A♥10♠
Hussein Abud: 6♥5♥

Koloszar hit top pair on the 4♥6♣10♥ flop, but Abud also found a pair and a flush draw. The 2♣ didn't change anything, but the 3♥ on the river completed Abud's flush, leading to Koloszar's elimination.

Rivered Set Earns Garcia Double KO

Weiss

Niveau 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

An incredible hand unfolded just before the first break of Day 3.

It was all in three ways preflop, involving Cesar Garcia from the small blind, Andy Graf from the hijack and Joao Mestre from the cutoff, with the Spaniard covering both.

Andy Graf: K♦Q♥
Joao Mestre: A♥K♣
Cesar Garcia: 10♥10♣

The flop of 2♥4♣A♠ put Dominguez in third place in the hand.

A 9♠ turn came, and Mestre looked set to earn a triple-up.

But a 10♠ on the river gave Garcia a set and sent Mestre and Graf to the rail.

Niveau 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Aram Sargsyan was all in for 110,000 from middle position and up against Max Neugebauer in the big blind.

Aram Sargsyan: A♦Q♣
Max Neugebauer: K♣K♦

Sargsyan was looking for an ace to stay alive, but none arrived on the 8♥7♣3♠3♦9♥ board as Neugebauer's kings stayed in front. Sargsyan departed the table so quickly he forgot his bag on the back of his seat and a tournament official had to track him down before he left the room.

The turn came the 5♣ and river was the J♠. Dietrich paired his jack on the river to win the pot. Huber was eliminated from the tournament, although he did manage to ladder up on his way out.
