The pot already contained more than 350,000 chips with a board 6♠5♦A♥7♦8♥ when Carlos Leiva's opponent checked to him. Leiva decided to bet 225,000 and his opponent went deep into the tank before eventually folding.
In a pot of close to 90,000 on a board showing A♠J♠5♦J♦, a player in the small blind checked to Denis Pisarev in early position who checked back.
On the 2♠ river the small blind led out for 30,000 and Pisarev raised to 130,000. His opponent quickly called and Pisarev tabled 5♠5♣ for a full house to take down the pot.
Yahor Dambrouski opened to 25,000 from the cutoff. But he was immediately three-bet by Daniel Vehring on the button. The blinds folded, and Dambrouski made the call.
On 8♦10♥K♦, Daniel Vehring bet 40,000, and Dambrouski check-called to find the 6♣ on the turn. A card that both players checked.
The A♣ landed on the river, and Dambrouski took the lead, betting 150,000. Quite quickly, Daniel Vehring called but mucked his cards when Dambrouski showed Q♥J♥ for the best straight possible.
Prasad Vemulapalli raised under the gun to 24,000. Wendy Nguyen in the cutoff three-bet and Vemulapalli responded with a four-bet jam. Nguyen called for her tournament life.
Wendy Nguyen: J♣J♠
Prasad Vemulapalli: 10♦10♣
The board ran out A♣7♦9♣10♠Q♠. Vemulapalli spiked one of his two outs on the turn to send Nguyen to the rail.
Nguyen left to collect her payout slip. In her absence, the entire table was quick to discuss between themselves what great energy she brought to the table.
Ryan Tamanini raised it up from the cutoff and Joao Simao shoved all in for 192,000 in the small blind. Tamanini quickly called and had Simao in trouble.
Joao Simao: 2♣2♦
Ryan Tamanini: J♣J♦
The flop fell 9♦4♥2♠ and Simao took the lead with a set of deuces. The 3♦ and Q♥ runout changed nothing and Simao earned a double up to stay alive.
Ludovic Geilich opened 24,000 in the cutoff and Aylar Lie defended the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of Q♥10♠7♥, and Lie check-called a bet of 27,000.
The K♦ fell on the turn and Lie checked once more before Geilichn fired another bet of 68,000, forcing Lie to surrender the pot.
Niveau: 18
Blinds: 6,000/12,000
