Niveau 18 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Salih Atac raised from the cutoff and called when Orpen Kisacikoglu moved all in for 465,000 from the button.

Orpen Kisacikoglu: 5♥5♦ All in
Salih Atac: A♣Q♣

Kisacikoglu remained ahead following the J♣10♦8♠ flop but needed to dodge the deck as Atac had a double-gutter to accompany his overcards. The 9♠ turn gave Atic a queen-high straight to leave Kisacikoglu drawing to a chop. The A♠ river provided no help to the at-risk player, and Kisacikoglu became the first final-table casualty.

Niveau 18 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Samuel Ju A♥J♠ raised to 110,000 from middle positon. Tom-Aksel Bedell A♠A♦ set the trap and just called with his rockets.

The 9♠6♣2♥ flop checked through to the 4♦ turn, and Ju bet 150,000. Bedell called.

On the 6♥ river, Ju slowed down and checked. He then folded to Bedell's bet of 360,000.

The flop, turn and river checked through to showdown and Ju took in the pot as his pocket tens remained best following the 8♣8♥Q♠K♥6♠ runout.

Niveau 18 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Alex Foxen K♣Q♦ opened to 100,000 from under the gun and was called by Viktor Blom K♦10♦ and Alessandro Pichierri 4♠4♣ from the hijack and big blind.

The K♥Q♠6♣ flop gave Foxen top two pair, while Blom had a pair of kings. Foxen continued for 150,000, and Blom called before Pichierri released his hand.

The 3♣ turn left Blom drawing dead. Foxen bet 540,000 and was called.

With 1,800,000 in the pot, the board completed with the 5♠ river. Foxen sized up to 1,285,000. Blom had 1,700,000 behind, and he correctly folded his top pair as Foxen continued to extend his lead.

Niveau 18 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Action folded to Samuel Ju K♣4♦ in the small blind and he raised to 175,000. Tom-Aksel Bedell 9♦8♦ called from the big blind.

Neither player connected on the Q♥10♥5♦ flop, but Ju bet 200,000 which was called.

The Q♣ turn paired the board and checked through to the 9♥ river, giving Bedell the checkmark. Ju fired out another 225,000, sending Bedell into the tank. He used up a time bank before folding the better hand.
