Niveau 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Michael Wang was seen all-in from the cutoff for roughly 22,000 against Adam Wagner in middle position, and both players revealed their hands.

Michael Wang: J♣J♦ All in
Adam Wagner: A♦K♣

The K♦8♠4♣ flop paired Wagner's king as Wang stood up from his seat. The Q♣ turn and K♥ river further improved Wagner to trip kings, sending Wang out of the tournament.

Niveau 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Martin Zamani opened to 4,000 from the hijack, and was met with a three-bet jam to 18,000 by Oscar Calamonte in the cutoff. Action folded to Kimmo Eskelinen in the big blind, who peeked at his cards, then promptly four-bet jammed for 42,000. Zamani quickly got out of the way.

Oscar Calamonte: J♠J♣ All in
Kimmo Eskelinen: Q♦Q♥

Calamonte's pocket jacks were pipped by Eskelinen's queens, and the 9♥6♥8♣K♦5♣ flop confirmed Calamonte was heading for the exits.

Niveau 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Demetrios Tompros opened under the gun to 3,500. Hassam Sleiman called from the small blind and Bobby James defended his big blind.

After the action check to Tompros on the 7♣4♥K♣ flop he put out a continuation-bet of 3,500 which only James called.

The turn came a flush completing 5♣. James led out 5,500 and was met with a raise to 18,000 by Tompros. James thought it over before he raised enough to put Tompros all in. Tompros snap-called for the rest of his 25,000 and the cards were revealed.

Demetrios Tompros: K♠K♥ All in
Robert James: 8♣4♣

James was ahead with his turned flush but had to fade the board pairing on the river if he was to eliminate Tompros. The 9♠ river wasn't what Tompros was looking for as his set of kings ended up second best to the flush of James.

Niveau 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Ivaylo Eftimov opened to 2,500 from middle position before Alexander Ivarsson jammed his remaining 8,500 into the middle from the hijack, and Eftimov called to put him at risk.

Alexander Ivarsson: A♦K♠ All in
Ivaylo Eftimov: Q♦10♦

Ivarsson was ahead until the J♥9♣8♦ flop gave Eftimov the nut straight. Ivarsson needed running cards to survive but he was drawing dead on the A♥ turn and the 3♣ river was just a formality as he hit the rail shortly before the end of registration.

Erkan Sonmez opened to 2,600 from under the gun and was called by Jerome Sgarrano from two seats over. Eduardo Boudet moved all in for 19,300 from late position, putting the action back on Sonmez. The latter called, which prompted Sgarrano to fold his hand.

Eduardo Boudet: 4♥4♠ All in
Erkan Sonmez: 9♥9♠

Boudet could not connect on the Q♠7♥5♠J♠10♦ runout and was eliminated.

Niveau 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Three players created a pot of about 15,000 with the Q♠5♣2♠J♥ turn already on the felt. Samir Dahdir check-folded to a bet of 8,000 from Fabrice Bigot while Hendrik Ricken made the call.

The 8♥ completed the board on the river, and Bigot paused for a few moments before jamming for about 20,000 and Ricken snap-called.

Bigot rolled A♠Q♦ for top-top, but was shown the bad news as Ricken tabled Q♣J♣.

Niveau 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Massimo Poropat moved all in for 8,000 from early position and PokerStars Ambassador Simon Wiciak made the call in the small blind.

Massimo Poropat: J♦J♠ All in
Simon Wiciak: A♥J♥

Poropat looked good for the double-up versus only one overcard, and the 10♠4♦6♠ flop was clear.

However the Q♥ turn provided Wiciak with a gutshot for some extra outs, and the A♦ rolled off on the river to send Wiciak the pot with a pair of aces.

Niveau 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Alexandre Raymond open-jammed for 15,100 from middle position before Georgina James rejammed from the cutoff while all subsequent action folded.

Alexandre Raymond: K♣Q♦ All in
Georgina James: A♦J♦

James was a slight favorite and it remained that way on the 10♠6♦3♦ flop. The 7♥ turn was no help to Raymond and James sealed the knockout on the A♣ river as Raymond hit the rail while James added to her large stack.

Niveau 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Scott Martin moved all in from early position for 6,500 and was called by Jason Rocha in the hijack. Action folded to John Catena in the big blind, who three-bet jammed for 25,600. Rocha asked for a count before making the quick call, covering both players.

Scott Martin: 3♥3♦ All in
John Catena: A♠K♠ All in
Jason Rocha: 8♠8♣

Rocha was ahead with pocket eights versus Martin's underpair and Catena's big slick, and had his opponents almost drawing dead after the 8♦2♥6♣ flop gave him top set.

The Q♦ turn confirmed the pot was heading to Rocha and his opponents were for the rail, and the 9♣ river completed the board.

Cangianiello Cracks Borlan's Aces

Partager sur Twitter Partager sur Facebook

Niveau 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Danilo Cangianiello, Dan Borlan, and Bjorn Gergo Kozenkai just got all of their chips in preflop. Borlan had the covering stack and the chance to eliminate two players.

Bjorn Gergo Kozenkai: A♠K♠ All in
Danilo Cangianiello: Q♣Q♦ All in
Dan Borlan: A♥A♣

Borlan had the chance to become one of the chip leaders in the room if his pocket aces could hold up. However, the 8♣4♦Q♠ flop propelled Cangianello into the lead with a set. The 10♥ turn provided Kozenkai with a glimmer of hope, but when the 8♠ hit the river to give Cangianello a full house, Kozankai was eliminated and Borlan was left with virtually just a starting stack.
