Niveau 9 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Action was on the river with a completed board of 3♣3♥2♦J♣6♥. The pot had about 45,000 in it. A player in middle position bet 32,000.

Benjamin Parent was on the button and jammed all in, easily covering his opponent who went into the tank. He seemed on the verge of either decision, unsure of what to do. Eventually he did fold and Parent took in the pot to add to his growing stack.

According to the players, Cara Swayze started the action with a limp from under the gun. Motyk Scott raised in early position and Vegard Ropstad called in the hijack. The player in the small blind also called, as did Swayze.

The flop came 2♠3♠4♥. Swayze and Scott checked and Ropstad bet 3,200. The small blind then went all in for 10,600. Swayze called the all in, Scott folded and Ropstad also called.

The turn came 5♦. Action was on Swayze and she went all in for about 45,000. Ropstad called.

Small blind: A♠X♠ All in
Cara Swayze: 5♠5♣ All in
Vegard Ropstad: 6x6x

Ropstad was ahead with his turned straight, while Swayze made top set and the small blind had the nut flush draw. All three players still had a chance at the pot and it was the 3♥ on the river that prompted Swayze to let out an excited: “Yesss!”, before the dealer counted out the stacks and sent a pile of chips her way. The player on the button was eliminated, while Ropstad was left with just a bit over ten big blinds. He was also eliminated soon after.

Niveau 9 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Tommy Nguyen raised in late position to 7,000 after a player in early position limped. The small blind and Andres Garcia in the big blind both called and the limper folded. The flop came out as 3♥7♥4♦ and the small blind checked, Garcia bet 8,800 and Nguyen called and the small blind pulled out the check raise and moved all in for 52,800, Garcia moved all in behind with the bigger stack and Nguyen folded.

Small blind: K♥Q♥ All in
Andres Garcia: 5♥4♥

The turn brought the flush everyone was looking for with the 6♥ and the river was the irrelevant K♣. The table did not realize at first that Garcia had the superior flush with the straight flush until someone announced it and even Garcia was suprised.

Preflop, Motyk Scott raised to 2,500 from early position. Sertac Turker made it 6,600 from middle position and Scott called.

The flop came 5♦3♦J♥. Scott checked and Turker bet 4,000. Scott called.

The turn was the A♥. Scott now led out for 10,000 and Turker clicked back to 20,000. After some thinking, Scott put Turker all in. Turker snap-called for his stack of a bit over 80,000 chips.

Sertac Turker: A♦J♦ All in
Motyk Scott: 4♥5♥

Turker was ahead with two pair, aces and jacks, while Scott had a pair of fives and also turned a flush draw and a gutshot.

The river was the 2♠, bringing in Scott’s wheel, sending a big pot his way and eliminating Turker.

Andrew Madison was starting to walk away from the table as it was not looking very good for his tournament life.

Andrew Madison: 8♦8♠ All in
Opponent: 10♠10♥

The board already read 7♠5♦2♣, the turn was the A♣ as Madison walked further away but the river came the 8♥ eight ball to make Madison stop in his tracks and walk back to the table looking dazed.
