zedmaster84

Niveau 10 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Ivan Deyra pushed all-in from the button for 175,000 and Nicolas Santos reshoved in the small blind. Wai Lo asked for a count and then called all-in from the big blind after glancing at the info screen twice.

Ivan Deyra: A♥9♦
Wai Lo: A♠K♦
Nicolas Santos: Q♥Q♦

Lo took the lead on the K♣10♣6♦ flop and Deyra was drawing dead on the A♣ turn. Santos needed a queen or jack but the 10♦ river put a hefty dagger into his stack, as Lo doubled through him for 770,000.

Sorel Mizzi Eliminated in 24th Place ($3,400)

zedmaster84

Niveau 10 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Rene Majed opened to 40,000 and Sorel Mizzi then jammed on the button for 245,000. Artur Martirosian in the big blind went all-in over the top and Majed folded.

Sorel Mizzi: A♥10♠
Artur Martirosian: K♦K♣

The K♠9♣4♠ flop left Mizzi on the ropes and he asked for a jack. That's what indeed came on the J♣ turn but another jack on the J♦ river ended his run in 24th place.

Armbrust Doubles; Lonis Busts

zedmaster84

Niveau 10 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Biao Ding and John Armbrust got their chips in with the latter as the player at risk for 285,000.

John Armbrust: 10♦10♣
Biao Ding: A♠J♠

The 10♠6♠5♠ flop gave Armbrust top set while Ding had the nut flush. Armbrust locked up the double with the 6♣ turn to make the J♣ river meaningless.

One hand later, the blinds were up and Ding jammed the last seven blinds. Jesse Lonis called for fewer than that in the cutoff.

Jesse Lonis: K♣9♣
Biao Ding: J♣J♠

"Oh wow," Lonis instantly exclaimed and was rather surprised how strong Ding was.

The A♣9♠8♥7♠J♦ board provided just one inferior pair for Lonis and he fell in 26th place.

John Armbrust	600,000 250,000	250,000

Three Knockouts in Rapid Fashion

zedmaster84

Niveau 9 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Arkadiy Tsinis got it in with the 6♣6♦ only to find himself up against Nicolas Santos with the 10♦10♠.

The J♠8♣5♥J♥4♠ board brought no help to the dominated pair.

William Liang then flipped with 7♠7♦ against Sunghak Lee and his A♠10♥. The J♥10♦2♠9♦5♥ board delivered the ten right away on the flop. "Queen eight, I would have hit a straight," Masashi Oya exclaimed.

Lee then picked up A♦A♣ against the pocket kings of Sorel Mizzi and earned a full double on a J♦J♥4♦7♣5♦ runout.

Last but not least, Arnaud Enselme had a kicker problem with K♠J♥, as Shelley Rubenstein revealed the K♦Q♥. The 10♠8♦4♦6♣2♠ board ensured another knockout.

All of the hands above concluded within two minutes.

Arieh Eliminated by Santos

zedmaster84

Niveau 8 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

The action was picked up on the Q♣9♦5♠Q♠7♣ river on which Nicolas Santos checked out of the big blind. Josh Arieh bet 150,000 with around 130,000 behind and Santos then pushed all-in.

Arieh went into the tank and eventually called it off. Santos rolled over the 9♣9♥ for a full house and Arieh briefly exposed his 10♣10♦ before heading to the payout desk.

zedmaster84

Niveau 8 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Stephen Song was eliminated by Dongwuk Moon and Jesse Rosen then ran into pocket queens to depart moments later. That brought the field down to the last four tables and Masashi Oya joined Moon's table.

Oya got to work immediately and tangled with William Liang. On a Q♥J♥J♦ flop, Liang checked and Oya bet 30,000 into a pot of 110,000 to win the pot uncontested.

Lo Doubles With Quads

zedmaster84

Niveau 8 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Jacek Pustula eventually lost the remainder of his short stack and Chino Rheem then pushed all-in out of the small blind into the big blind of Wai Lo.

"I assure you, you are ahead ... just take your time," Rheem said while Lo glanced a few times at the tournament clock to see possible pay jumps. Lo then called for the 260,000 he had behind.

Wai Lo: 4♦4♣
Chino Rheem: 8♦7♠

The flip went to Lo as he proceeded to make quads on the K♦Q♣4♠4♥J♦ board.

Moments later, Guoliang Wei and Shant Marashliuan were eliminated before Lo's table lost Thai Ha. Only 34 players remain and that number will decrease very soon.
