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

With around 200,000 in the pot on a flop of 9♦7♣5♠, Mehdi Chaoui bet 75,000, and Lev Margolin check-raised to 210,000. Stoyan Madanzhiev folded before Chaoui shoved for Margolin's remaining 150,000. Margolin pondered for a few moments before making the call.

Lev Margolin : 8♦8♣ All in
Mehdi Chaoui: Q♥Q♦

Chaoui needed to fade an eight or six to send Margolin to the rail. The 8♥ turn propelled Margolin into the lead with a set, as the 9♥ hit the river to give Margolin the winner with a full house.

Adrian Cazacu opened to 65,000 under the gun and Shankui Li defended the big blind.

On the K♣7♥2♠ flop, Li check-called a bet of 40,000 from Cazacu.

The 9♠ turn was checked through. On the 7♠ river, Li check-called a bet of 275,000 from Cazacu.

Li showed A♦A♣ for the slow-played pair of aces, but it was no good versus Cazacu's K♠3♠ for the rivered king-high flush.

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

Daniel Myers just won back-to-back pots at showdown, which boosted his stack to almost 1,500,000.

First, Myers raised from under the gun and got a call from Juan Pardo in the small blind.

They went to a flop of 8♣4♦A♥ where Pardo check-called a bet of 60,000 from Myers, then both checked the 9♣ turn.

A 4♠ dropped on the river and Pardo led out for 160,000, and Myers called. Pardo showed K♥Q♥ for just king-high, and Myers' A♦10♠ took the pot.

In the next hand, Jelle Moene opened from the hijack to 60,000 and Myers defended the big blind.

They both checked the 6♣2♥3♦ flop to the 5♠ turn where Myers led for 85,000, and Moene raised to 185,000. Myers called.

On the 8♣ river, both players checked and Myers showed a straight with K♣4♣ to win the pot.

Action went check-check on the river on a board of K♥9♦9♥Q♥Q♦ with around 600,000 in the middle.

Sebastian Malec tabled 10♦9♣ for the lower end of the full house, and Andras Nemeth mucked.

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

Manuel Fritz raised to 65,000 from the cutoff and Sebastian Malec three-bet to 210,000 from the small blind. Fritz shoved for 560,000 and Malec called to put him at risk.

Manuel Fritz : A♣Q♠ All in
Sebastian Malec : J♥10♥

Fritz was in great shape to double-up if he could stay ahead with ace-queen. The flop of 4♠6♠2♠ was great for Fritz as he picked up a flush draw to cancel out some of Malec's outs. The 8♣ turn and 5♥ river didn't help Malec, and Fritz had doubled up.
