Niveau 20 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Nikita Kuznetsov moved all in for 485,000 from the cutoff, with Ilia Pavlov moving his stack of 410,000 into the middle from the small blind. Michail Manolakis pondered making the call in the big blind, covering both players, but ultimately folded.

Ilia Pavlov: A♥J♣ All in
Nikita Kuznetsov: A♠10♦

Pavlov had Kuznetsov dominated, but the A♣10♥4♦ flop propelled Kuznetsov into the lead with top two pair. Pavlov now required a jack to stay in it, but it did not arrive on the 6♠K♣ turn and river.

Niveau 20 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Andras Nemeth, who had been open raising often for the last few orbits, raised to 80,000 from late position. Michail Manolakis called in the small blind and Morten Klein moved all in from the big blind for 570,000. Nemeth opted to shove over the top for 990,000 and Manolakis folded.

Nemeth and Klein flipped their cards, with Klein at risk.

Morten Klein: A♦K♥ All in
Andras Nemeth: Q♥10♥

The flop came 6♣J♦10♦ and Nemeth paired his ten. Klein still had plenty of outs to give him hope, but his chances were massively reduced when the 10♣ turn gave Nemeth trips. The river was the J♠ and Nemeth improved to a full house to win the pot.

Klein was eliminated from the tournament in fifth place for €17,700.

Klein pulled his bounty on the way out and added a further €10,000 to his prize money.

Andras Nemeth raised to 80,000 from the button, Ilia Pavlov called in the small blind, then Michail Manolakis moved all in for 690,000 from the big blind. Nemeth folded and Pavlov got the count before making the call. Manolakis was at risk as players flipped their cards.

Michail Manolakis: 9♦9♠ All in
Ilia Pavlov: K♥Q♣

It was a flip and the board came 4♠10♦6♣4♥2♠. Pavlov couldn't find a pair and Manolakis held with his pocket nines, scoring a huge double up that gave him the chip lead.

In the 867th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, sponsored by the free-to-play WSOP App, Chad Holloway, Kyna England, and Mike Holtz are at Level 9 Studio to discuss the "controversy" of Doug Polk making the final table of his own poker tournament down at The Lodge in Austin, Texas. Should a poker operator be allowed to play in their own event? That seemed to be the question of the week in the poker world.

The crew then played "Race the Ace" to determine a winner in ourgiveaway for a seat into the ClubWPT Gold $5,000,000 Freeroll Invitational (the answer to how many engraved plates are on the WPT Mike Sexton Champion's Cup was 374)! From there, it is a look at Maria Ho winning the Celebrity Poker Tour (CPT) 2024 Championship and Chad got to meet Impractical Jokers Brian "Q" Quinn and Joe Gatto, Sketch, and Vegas Matt.

Speaking of fun events, find out who won the Global Poker Table Talk event during Formula 1 featuring Antonio Esfandiari, Michael Phelps, Carlos Sainz, and Charles Leclerc, and then get a behind-the-scenes look at the Big Deal for One Drop, which both Chad and Connor Richards attended. They caught up with Phil Hellmuth and even interviewed Jennifer Tilly.

Kyna then shares highlights from her trip to England for the PokerStars Women's Winter Festival. Then things wrap with a look at the upcoming Bar Poker Open taking place in Florida from Dec. 6-8 (Norman Chad will be there to do commentary)!

The podcast is sponsored by the #1 free-to-play WSOP app. Remember to use bonus code "POKERNEWS" if you download and play for an extra 1,000,000 in chips!

A new PokerNews Podcast will drop weekly every Friday at 8a PT / 11a ET / 4p UK time. Remember to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you do not miss an episode!

Niveau 19 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Ilia Pavlov raised to 60,000 from the button, Michail Manolakis called in the small blind, and Morten Klein called in the big blind.

The flop came 10♥5♣8♥ and action checked to Pavlov, who continued for 60,000. Manolakis called and Klein folded. Both players still left in the pot then checked back the 4♠ turn.

On the A♠ river, Manolakis checked and Pavlov picked it up with a bet of 210,000. Manolakis folded and Pavlov won the pot to keep his stack over the one million mark.

Elsewhere, the action has been slow, with most pots taken down with a preflop raise or flop bet.

Nemeth Spikes River to Double via Pavlov

Niveau 18 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Action folded to Andras Nemeth in the small blind, who completed. Ilia Pavlov pumped it up to 80,000 from the big blind, and Nemeth wasted little time in back-jamming for 410,000 total. Pavlov made the snap-call.

Andras Nemeth: A♠Q♣ All in
Ilia Pavlov: A♥K♥

In a blind on blind cooler, Pavlov had Nemeth's ace dominated.

The K♠10♠6♥ flop kept Pavlov in front with a pair of kings, but Nemeth had outs to the straight. Those outs increased when the turn brought the 6♠, and with Nemeth calling for the spade, the 9♠ rolled off on the river to give Nemeth the one-card ace-high flush and a crucial double-up.
