Fabrice Soulier et Thibaut Blondel dans les 16 derniers survivants

Niveau 23 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Il y a toujours deux Français en lice à l'issue du Jour 4 du Main Event du PokerStars Championship Macau. Après une journée de 7 heures de poker qui a vu le field passer de 37 joueurs à 16 rescapés, Thibaut Blondel et Fabrice Soulier sont encore en lice pour remporter le premier prix de 3,1 millions de dollars de Hong Kong.

Il n'y a qu'une blinde d'écart en tête du chipcount où l'on retrouve l'Allemand Aymon Hata et le Chinois Dong Guo. Hata s'est emparé de la première place du leaderboard sur l'ultime main de la journée en trouvant une paire de {7-}{7-} en grosse blinde après un shove de Julius Malzanini en petite blinde avec {q-}{5-}.

En tête presque toute la journée, Dong Guo est l'unique joueur à finir avec plus de 2 millions de jetons. Le tricolore Thibault Blondel (1,388,000), Wenlong Jin (1,296,000) et Yan Li (1,248,000) complètent le Top 5. Superbe exploit du Français, qualifié sur Internet, et qui ne compte qu'une place payée en live qui remonte à 2015 et une 9e place sur le Starter du WPO Dublin (335€).

Quelques têtes connues du circuit comme Daniel Laidlaw (1,077,000), Elliot Smith (583,000), ou notre Fabrice Soulier national (472,000) seront au Jour 5. Cela sera plus compliqué pour Winfred Yu (385,000), dernier de la classe, alors que le qualifié Spin n’ Go canadien Avraham Oziel (873,000) a lui toutes ses chances pour viser la finale.

Tous les survivants ont assuré un gain de 21 881$ mais le premier prix de plus de 400 000$ est dans tous les esprits.

Joueur de l'année GPI en 2016, et n°1 mondial encore la semaine dernière, David Peters était présent au Jour 4. Un deep-run lui aurait permis de croire à une reconquête immédiate de son trône mais l'Américain a été la première victime du jour. Peters a tenté un semi-bluff contre Dong Guo... qui avait Full House et en a profité pour prendre la tête.

Après al sortie de Peters, Kiryl Radzivonau (34e), Vitaly Tevis (29e), le chipleader du Jour 1B Joachim Bold (24e) et celui du Jour 2 Pakinai Lisawad (21e) ont finalement rendu les armes.

Big Slick Topples the Hooks

Aymon Hata
Aymon Hata

Julius Malzanini opened to 51,000 from under-the-gun only to be three-bet one seat over by Aymon Hata. Hata bumped it up to 108,000 but Yan Li wasn't having any of that. Li four-bet jammed, having both players covered.

Malzanini went into the tank for a moment before reluctantly letting it go. Hata grabbed a handful of chips and set them down in front of him, making a call for his tournament life.

Li: {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Hata: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}

Hata smashed the {k-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds} flop, taking a big lead with two pair. Li needed a jack or running cards to pause the clock on Day 4 but the turn — {7-Diamonds} and river — {4-Spades} were no help and Hata survived, vaulting up the chip counts.

Oziel Joins the Milly Club

Avraham Oziel
Avraham Oziel

Fabrice Soulier opened to 55,000 from the button and got a call from Avraham Oziel in the small blind. A {q-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop was laid in front of them and Oziel took the betting lead, firing 60,000. Soulier called.

The {k-Clubs} touched down on the turn and Oziel checked. Soulier counted out a bet of 117,000 and slid it forward. Oziel instantly announced all in and stood up from the table.

Soulier raised his hands, seemingly shocked by the turn of events. Unsure what to do, Soulier took a few moments before eventually giving up and sliding his cards towards the dealer.

Oziel picked up his cards and said, "I never bluff," tabling {8-Spades}{8-Clubs} for a flopped set. The Canadian who qualified through a $10 Spin & Go on PokerStars has now joined the others with a seven-figure stack.

Julius Malzanini open-jammed from the button for 292,000 and Aymon Hata made the call in the small blind.

Malzanini: {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Hata: {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

Malzanini was in great shape to at least not lose the pot. The dealer fanned out a {10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{k-Spades}{2-Clubs} and Malzanini doubled to around 600,000.

Kalev: {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Li: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}

The board came {9-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{5-Spades}{j-Spades}{9-Clubs} and Kalev was eliminated in 20th place for HK$170,000.

Radzivonau Jams Turn and Busts

Kiryl Radzivonau
Kiryl Radzivonau

Kiryl Radzivonau was under the gun and raised to 30,000. Julius Malzanini called from the cutoff and Thibaut Blondel called from the big blind. The three-way flop came {2-Spades}{8-Hearts}{j-Spades}.

Blondel checked to Radzivonau who bet 43,000, getting a call from just Malzanini while Blondel bowed out. The turn was the {7-Clubs}.

Radzivonau checked and Malzanini thought for a moment before betting 75,000. Radzivonau pushed all in for about 330,000.

"Three-hundred twenty-seven," he said for his opponent.

Malzanini went in the tank, taking about two minutes to process his decision.

"I call," he finally said.

Radzivonau flipped over {7-Spades}{9-Spades} for a pair and the flush draw. Malzanini revealed an overpair with {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}.

The river of {k-Hearts} was essentially a brick, eliminating Radzivonau from the tournament and giving Malzanini a large stack.

Dong Guo

Xinan Yu opened to 27,000 from late position, receiving calls from David Peter on the button and big blind Dong Guo. The flop came {3-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{j-Hearts} and, after Guo and Yu checked, Peters fired out a bet of 52,000. Guo decided to bump it up to 108,000 and just Peters called.

The {5-Hearts} fell on the turn and Gup led for 135,000. Peters called.

Guo led again on the river {4-Diamonds}, this time for 155,000. Peters jammed all in and Guo snap-called.

Guo: {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Peters: {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}

Guo had Peters crushed with his full house and, after both stacks were counted, Guo had Peters just covered.

Canadian Elliot Smith is off to a dream start. The British Columbia native opened to 25,000 on the first hand from under the gun and Artem Metalidi three-bet to 63,000, one seat over.

Action folded back around to Smith who four-bet jammed for 256,000 and Metalidi quickly called.

Metalidi: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Smith: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

A sick cooler right off the bang. The board ran out {5-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Spades}{8-Spades}{j-Clubs} and Smith raked in an easy double-up.
