Calum_Grant

Niveau 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Nolan Curatolo seat was empty on Table 95. Dimitrios Katsikas, Stuart Rutter and Francisco Mir recapped the hand that may raise a few eyebrows.

Curatolo opened to 600 from early position, with Rutter and Mir calling from the button and small blind.

Mir checked on the A♠J♥4♥ flop before Curatolo continued for 700. Rutter and Mir called.

Curatolo then sized up to 4,500 on the 2♦ turn and saw both opponents call once more. A J♣ completed the board, and Curatolo fired out 20,000, which left him with about 4,000 behind. Rutter folded while Mir, in the small blind, also took his time, but he decided to call.

Curatolo then instantly mucked his cards and Mir took the pot without a showdown. Mir told PokerNews he had 5♥2♥.

"So strong. King-queen, king-ten of hearts. Something like that," a tablemate asked Curatolo, who remained silent as Mir stacked up the big pot.

A few hands later, Curatolo was eliminated.

Niveau 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Wooram Cho just entered the tournament, but his seat had little chance to get warm as he engaged in a raising war out of the small blind with Anatoly Korochenskiy in middle position that ended with Cho all in for 30,000.

Wooram Cho: K♣Q♦
Anatoly Korochenkiy: 10♣10♠

The board ran out 8♠9♦5♣8♣5♥ and Cho came out on the wrong side of the coin flip to hit the rail.

"That makes it a little easier for us. He's a good player. He plays all the high rollers," tablemate Rens Bujis said.

Niveau 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Martin Morawiec, Junhyoung Ki, Vitaliy Kryza and Pawel Zawadowicz limped in from under the gun, middle position, the button and small blind respectively. Kai Penzersinski checked his option in the big blind.

Action checked to Morawiec on the 10♥7♠2♥ flop, and he bet 1,500. Ki and Kryza called before Zawadowicz made it 9,000. Penzersinski folded while the remaining players called to make a sizeable pot.

Zawadowicz bet 20,000 on the 5♠ turn. Morawiec called off his last 9,200. Ki also put in his last 6,200. Kryza called the original bet, leaving him 19,000 behind.

The 8♣ completed the board. Kryza open-folded his 9♥8♥ after facing a 10,000 river bet.

A series of cards then went on their back.

Junhyoung Ki: K♣10♣
Martin Morawiec: 10♦2♦
Pawel Zawadowicz: 7♥5♥

Morawiec had the winner, as his two pair was better than Zawadowicz's. Ki just had a pair of tens and was eliminated. Morawiec took the main pot while Zawadowicz received a small rebate from the side pot.
