Niveau 11 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

A short-stacked player moved all in preflop and was called by Charles Welsh to put him at risk.

Player 1: 7♣7♠ All in
Charles Welsh: A♠10♠

The at-risk player would need to hold to stay alive, but the flop of 20d2hks] was a disaster as Welch made a pair of tens to take the lead. No sevens appeared on the runout of 6♥K♥ and the pot was shipped to welch while the other player made his exit.

Niveau 11 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

After an open from Brett Stevens, Joseph Scarbrough had made it 21,000 to go preflop and the action came back around to Stevens who four-bet to 67,000. After some pause, Scarbrough just called to see the flop of 2♣8♥2♦.

Scarbrough checked to Stevens, who then announced he was all in for 98,000, which sent Scarbroughinto the tank.

After close to a minute, Scarbrough slid his cards to the dealer and the pot was awarded to Stevens.

Niveau 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

On a three-way flop of A♣K♦4♦, the action checked to Rob Kovacevic who moved all in for exactly 100,000 into the pot of 45,000. The first player quickly folded but then the second player went deep into the tank.

After almost 2 minutes of pained deliberation, the player finally made the call and the hands were tabled.

Rob Kovacevic: A♠K♠ All in
Opponent: A♦6♦

Kovacevic was well in the lead with his top two pair, but still would need to fade the diamond draw of his adversary.

Fortunately for him, the runout of 10♥7♠ was clean and he was pushed the pot for a big double.
