Deeb Falls to Moncek Early

Niveau 13 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

After significant action Shaun Deeb found himself all in and at risk against current chip leader Michael Moncek.

Shaun Deeb: A♣A♦7♦10♣
Michael Moncek: K♥K♠4♠2♥

Both players were holding double-suited premiums with Deeb having the upperhand. That was until the dealer put out the 3♥5♥K♣ flop and Moncek jumped into the lead. The 2♠ turn and 7♣ river did not bring the help he needed and Deeb made an early exit on Day 2.

Niveau 13 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Alex Foxen was involved as the shortest stack out of the big blind and Isaac Haxton also got his shorter stack in, both of which were then looked up by Tyler Brown on the button.

Alex Foxen: K♣Q♠10♣9♠
Isaac Haxton: A♥Q♥J♣8♥
Tyler Brown: A♠A♦J♦3♥

The board ran out 9♦6♠6♣7♠10♥ and Haxton rivered a jack-high straight to double and knock out Foxen. It then took a short while to verify the stack size since his stack had been knocked over by Ima Derwiche as the showdown was proceeding.

zedmaster84

Niveau 13 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Chris Brewer was moved tables and then faced off against Yuri Dzivielevski when they saw a flop of Q♣9♣5♥. Dzivielevski's raise to 275,000 was called by Brewer and the Brazilian then potted the 7♦ turn for 610,000.

Brewer sighed for a short while before moving all-in and received an instant call.

Chris Brewer: 6♣5♣5♦4♥
Yuri Dzivielevski: Q♦Q♠8♠3♥

The 9♦ river brought no help to Brewer and he went from one of the big stacks to the rail in the first level.

"This felt like such a setup hand, getting moved and hit a set ..." Brewer sighed before leaving the tournament area.

The 5♥10♦4♥ flop landed and the action checked to Troha who quickly moved all in having Shak covered by just 45,000 chips. Shak snap-called and the cards hit their backs.

Jean-Pierre Van Der Spuy: A♥2♣K♦Q♦
Dan Shak: 9♣J♥10♣8♦
Sean Troha: A♦A♠9♥2♥

Troha was in the lead with his aces but Shak drilled the 10♠ turn to hit trips. He held on the 5♦ river and scooped a massive pot to vault up the leaderboard. Van Der Spuy hit the rail and Troha was left with crumbs and hit the rail a few hands later.

Eveslage and Oya Get All the Chips In

Niveau 14 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

The action folded all the way to Masashi Oya on the button who opened to 75,000. The small blind folded and then Chad Eveslage defended his big blind.

The 6♦10♦3♠ flop landed and the action checked to Oya who potted it. That was quickly met with an all in from Eveslage followed by a snap call from Oya. The cards hit their backs with Oya all in and at risk.

Chad Eveslage: Q♣9♠6♥10♣
Masashi Oya: A♥A♠2♥10♠

The double-suited aces of Oya needed some help but the 6♠ turn only improved Eveslage. The K♥ river changed nothing and Oya hit the rail just before the money.
