Niveau 12 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Mike Watson raised to 13,000 from under the gun before Juan Pardo made it 37,000 to go from the hijack. The action folded back to Watson, who decided to put his opponent all in for 185,000 chips.

Pardo instantly called and both players tabled their cards.

Juan Pardo: A♣K♥
Mike Watson: 10♥10♣

Watson flopped a set on K♣10♠4♣, and the 5♥ turn eliminated all runner-runner possibilities for Pardo. The 3♥ river was dealt as a formality while Pardo said his goodbyes and headed to the exit.

Michael Jozoff moved all in for 60,000 from the button and Byron Kaverman gave up the small blind. Stephen Chidwick, though, instantly flipped over his cards and called.

Michael Jozoff: 10♦9♦
Stephen Chidwick: J♠J♦

"I think it's a fold, actually. He didn't say it," Jozoff joked as he watched the 5♠K♠K♣4♠10♠ seal his elimination.

Byron Kaverman and Ben Heath built a pot of around 60,000 heading to the turn on a board of 6♣3♦K♥8♦ where Heath bet 41,000 from the big blind.

Kaverman called in the cutoff and the 9♣ fell on the river. Heath then moved all in and Kaverman quickly called for his last 68,000. Heath showed K♣J♠ for a pair of kings, but Kaverman had A♠K♦ and won the pot with his ace-kicker to double up.

Atanas Malinov raised to 16,000 in early position, then called when Sam Grafton moved all in for 55,000 in the big blind.

Sam Grafton: J♥J♦
Atanas Malinov: 6♣6♠

Grafton had Malinov crushed with his jacks as the flop came 9♦9♠A♦. The J♠ turn improved Grafton to a full house, and Malinov was left paying off the double up once the A♣ completed the board.

"That's why I folded pocket eights under the gun. I knew I would get a better hand," Grafton said.

Mike Watson raised to 16,000 from the cutoff and Jean-Noel Thorel called from the big blind. The 3♦6♦2♣ flop was checked by both players before Thorel led for 15,000 on the 5♣ turn.

Watson called and did so again when Thorel fired 30,000 chips on the 8♠ river. Thorel showed down A♠4♥ for a straight and raked in the pot.

Meanwhile, Ben Heath was eliminated from an adjacent table when his last few chips went in with K♥8♥ against the 10x9x of Adrian Mateos and could not hold.

Jean-Noel Thorel raised to 20,000 in the cutoff as Daniel Dvoress and Mike Watson came along from the blinds.

The flop came 3♣8♠9♦ and Dvoress moved all in for 75,000. Watson gave it some thought before folding, but Thorel snap-called.

Daniel Dvoress: Q♠J♥
Jean-Noel Thorel: K♠9♠

Thorel showed top pair, while Dvoress was looking to complete a straight draw. The 10♣ turn gave him his straight and Thorel paid him off following the A♣ river.

"Good old stop and go," Dvoress said.

Orpen Kisacikoglu opened from the button and Nikita Kuznetsov jammed all in from the big blind for 42,000. Kisacikoglu quickly called and the cards were tabled.

Nikita Kuznetsov: A♠3♦
Orpen Kisacikoglu: J♥10♣

Both players flopped a piece on A♣A♥J♦, but Kuznetsov's three aces would remain the best hand on the 4♦K♦ runout, doubling him up to around a starting stack.

Mike Watson was in the small blind, Steve O'Dwyer was in the big blind, and Aleksejs Ponakovs was under the gun before all three players went to a turn of 9♠10♦8♦6♣. With around 50,000 chips in the middle, the action was checked to Ponakovs, who made a bet of 19,000.

Watson then put in a raise to 66,000, after which O'Dwyer quickly folded. Ponakovs took some time before he followed suit and he let out a big sigh while he saw the pot being shipped Watson's way.
