A player in middle position opened the action with a raise to 4,500. Michael Lipman called from the cutoff which brought along the button and big blind.

Middle position continued for 6,500 on 5♦7♥8♥ and Lipman made the call. The big blind check-raised to 26,000 before Lipman moved all in for 73,000. The big blind snap called but was behind.

Michael Lipman: 6♦4♠ All in
Big Blind: 8♠7♣

The turn 3♠ and river 2♠ were no help to the big blind as Lipman raked in the pot to take command as table chip leader.

Samuel Bekerian raised to 4,000 from under the gun, a player in early position three-bet to 12,000 and Bekerian called.

Both players checked to the river as the full board now read J♥6♥6♦5♥6♣. Bekerian checked again and his opponent checked back. Bekerian rolled over A♦4♦ for ace high, which was seemingly enough to see his opponent's cards into the muck.

Niveau 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Mike Ruter raised to 5,000 from the hijack, the cutoff three-bet to 13,000 and Ruter called.

The A♥5♣7♦ flop checked through to the 8♥ on the turn. Ruter took the lead for 18,000 and the cutoff called.

The Q♣ river saw Ruter commit his remaining stack of 24,000 into the middle. The cutoff thought for a considerable amount of time before giving up his hand without a fight.
