Fergenbaum and Istomin Knocked out

zedmaster84

Niveau 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Matthew Fergenbaum jammed pocket fours with a short stack and Jessica Teusl just called out of the small blind. Aleksei Istomin jammed over the top and Teusl snap-called with the K♥K♠, catching Istomin with the inferior 8♦8♠. The board was all paint and Istomin saw his stack reduced to fumes.

Soon after, Istomin raised to 20,000 with 1,000 behind and Ljubomir Josipovic called.

The A♠10♦8♥ flop saw Istomin all-in with the A♥Q♠ and Josipovic had pulled ahead with the 10♥8♦. Nothing changed with the 4♥ turn and 6♦ river, sending Istomin to the rail as well.

Josipovic added further chips after to nearly reach seven figures.

zedmaster84

Niveau 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Ljubomir Josipovic opened to 15,000 and was called by David D'Alessandro on the button. Behind them, Greg Yates raised big out of a stack of around 140,000 and Josipovic quickly tossed in his big T-25,000 chips, D'Alessandro folded. Yates was then officially all-in and they turned them over.

Greg Yates: 5♠5♣
Ljubomir Josipovic: A♦K♠

The K♦6♦3♥ flop improved Josipovic to a pair of kings while Yates picked up a gutshot on the 7♥ turn. Nothing changed with the 6♣ river and Josipovic added even more chips to his growing tower.

Ruivo on the Right End of a Cold Deck

Niveau 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Renan Meneguetti opened in middle position to 10,000 before the action moved to Manuel Ruivo in the small blind who put in a cold three-bet to 35,000. Action was then on Henrique Lessa in the big blind who took a moment and then four-bet ripped it for 161,000 which was Ruivo's effective stack.

Meneguetti quickly got out of the way and Ruivo snapped.

Manuel Ruivo: K♥K♦
Henrique Lessa: Q♦Q♣

The full board ran out 2♠8♣3♦J♣K♣ and Lessa would send a pile of chips over to Ruivo after some blind versus blind carnage.

Nguyen Gets Paid by Mao

zedmaster84

Niveau 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

On the tail end of a 7♠4♠4♣K♥J♠ board, Minh Nguyen fired a bet of 65,000 and Renji Mao called to get shown the A♠9♠ for the ace-high flush. Mao shook his head in frustration and tossed the cards with force into the muck.

Nguyen has further cemented his status as one of the chip leaders with now 150 players remaining. Only 98 of them are set to advance to the money stages on Day 2.

Istomin is Chasing the Big Stacks

zedmaster84

Niveau 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Heads-up to the A♦7♣6♣Q♦ turn, David D'Alessandro bet 21,000 in the big blind. Aleksei Istomin then raised to 61,000 on the button and that sent his opponent into the tank. D'Alessandro fiddled with calling chips but ultimately ended up folding.

"Why did you change your mind?" Istomin inquired in the table chat but received no clear answer.

D'Alessandro is one of two bigger stacks on the same table behind Ljubomir Josipovic but Istomin may close the gap soon if he continues to trend upwards.
