Strazisar Eliminated by Linde

zedmaster84

Niveau 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jan Strazisar open-jammed for 45,000 in an early position and his previous nemesis Emilien Pitavy on the button asked for an exact count, then folded. Mir Gaskari let go in the small blind and Dylan Linde then instantly called out of the big blind.

Jan Strazisar: 4♦4♥
Dylan Linde: A♦Q♥

The Q♦9♥3♠ flop gave Linde the lead and Strazisar already gathered his belongings. Nothing changed on the 3♥ turn and 10♣ river to send Strazisar to the rail.

Stavila Vanishes; Revah Soars to Massive Stack

zedmaster84

Niveau 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

In a pot of around 60,000 to the 6♣5♦4♥3♥7♥ river, Eyal Revah over-bet 90,000 and that sent Dan Stavila into the tank. With a stack of around 360,000 behind, Stavila pondered about his move while Revah kept talking like he had done pretty much the entire day already.

Suddenly, Stavila announced all-in and Revah snapped him off to instantly show his A♥9♥ for the ace-high flush.

Stavila grabbed his cards and placed them right on top of the muck before heading out of the tournament area.

He would later tell friends that he called with the K♥8♥ for the king-high flush, though that cannot be verified.

Niveau 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jin Hoon Lee opened to 10,000 from the hijack and Isaac Haxton, who was recently left very short-stacked, moved all in for 17,000. Lee made the call to put Haxton at risk.

Isaac Haxton: K♦K♥
Jin Hoon Lee: Q♠10♥

The board ran out J♠4♦2♥K♠7♠. Haxton's set of kings were good at showdown and he scored a much-needed double up through Lee.

Pitavy Scores a Big Double

zedmaster84

Niveau 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jan Strazisar raised to 10,000 and earned one caller thereafter. Emilien Pitavy then three-bet to 47,000 before Strazisar announced a reraise, carefully sorting chips and pushing forward 245,000. One fold later, it was up to Pitavy who announced call and wanted to turn over his cards already.

His table neighbours instantly urged him to wait as he may have more chips behind, which was indeed the case. Once most chips of both players were in the middle, they headed to the K♥J♠2♦ flop. Pitavy was all-in for another 25,000 and Strazisar called.

Emilien Pitavy: Q♥Q♣
Jan Strazisar: 10♥10♦

The Q♠ turn gave Pitavy a set while Strazisar now gained more outs than he had one street earlier. However, the 4♥ ruver was a blank and Pitavy scored an enormous double.

Botez Keeps Adding Chips

Niveau 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Arun Sardana faced a bet worth 15,000 by Alexandra Botez on the 10♥3♥2♥Q♥ turn and quickly surrendered, check-folding and revealing the Q♠ face-up. A few minutes later, Botez dragged in an even bigger pot and leaped above the average.
