Niveau 21 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Alex Foxen J♠J♦ raised 300,000 from the small blind, and Salih Atac Q♦8♠ defended his big blind.

Foxen bet 175,000 in the 5♥5♣3♣ flop, and Atac decided to float with his queen-high. The 9♣ turn checked through to the board double-pairing 3♥ river. Foxen fired out 785,000 and Atac mulled over his options, using a time bank while he thought. He ended up making the fold despite the tempations of a daring hero-call.

Alex Foxen A♣8♥ opened to 200,000 from under the gun and Salih Atac 9♣9♠ called from the cutoff. Leon Tsoukernik 6♠6♥ and Alessandro Pichierri J♦10♥ called from the blinds.

Atac's nines remained best following the 7♦3♦2♥ flop, and he called when Foxen continued for 225,000. Tsoukernik also stuck around ahead of Pichierri folding.

The 6♣ turn saw Tsoukernik take the lead with a set of sixes. He checked and Foxen followed suit to put the action on Atac. The latter fired out 575,000, and then Tsoukernik jammed. Foxen folded and Atac had a decision for his tournament life. The Swiss player had 2,900,000 behind and he managed to find the fold with his overpair.

Alessandro Pichierri J♣10♠ opened to 200,000 first to act and was called by Alex Foxen K♠J♠ from the cutoff. Leon Tsoukernik 10♥9♠ defended his big blind.

Pichierri continued for 280,000 on the 5♠2♠2♥ flop, and Foxen called with his flush draw ahead of Tsoukernik folding. The J♥ turn connected with both remaining players, and action checked through to the K♣ river, which gave Foxen kings and jacks.

Pichierri bet 450,000 with the second-best hand. Foxen used a time bank while he weighed up his options. The American bumped it up to 2,220,000, and Pichierri opted to preserve the 1,800,000 he had behind and folded.

Leon Tsoukernik limped in from under the gun, Sirzat Hissou limped behind from the button, Salih Atac came along from the small blind and Tom-Aksel Bedell checked his option in the big blind.

The flop came A♥J♥5♣ and action checked around to Tsoukernik who bet 650,000. Hissou moved all in for 765,000 and all players got out of the way aside from Tsoukernik who called to put Hissou at risk.

Sirzat Hissou: 7♥6♥ All in
Leon Tsoukernik: A♠5♠

Tsoukernik was in great shape with aces up and remained ahead when the rest of the board ran out 8♠5♥. Hissou had improved to a flush but Tsoukernik had improved to a full house to send Hissou to the rail and take the pot.

Alex Foxen opened to 160,000 from the hijack and was called by Salih Atac on the button before Samuel Ju moved all in for 1,000,000 from the small blind. Foxen got out of the way before Atac made the call with a covering stack to put Ju at risk.

Samuel Ju: A♦K♣ All in
Salih Atac: A♥A♣

Ju was on the wrong side of brutal preflop cooler and couldn't catch up on the 3♠J♥2♣2♥8♠ runout. Ju earned the unfortunate title of bubble boy while Atac claimed the last of his chips.
