Kuznetsov Takes Huge Pot

Livello 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Luca Marki raised to 80,000 in the cutoff and was called by Nikita Kuznetsov on the button and Ihar Soika in the small blind.

On the A♦3♠J♠ flop Marki continued with a bet of 105,000 and was called by both of his opponents.

The turn brought the 9♦ and Marki continued to fire, putting out a bet of 275,000. Again both opponents called.

The 7♦ rolled off on the river and Marki fired out a bet of 625,000. After some thought, Kuznetsov raised to 1,250,000, leaving only 225,000 behind. Soika folded and Mark called.

Kuznetsov showed K♦Q♦ for the king-high flush and Marki hit the table in frustration as Kuznetsov raked in the pot.

Brouk moved all in, Kuznetsov folded and Adams put the rest of his chips in to put himself at risk.

Enrico Camosci Eliminated in 19th Place (€41,500)

Livello 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Enrico Camosci opened to 60,000 and Ihar Soika moved all in from the big blind with a covering stack. Camosci called to put himself at risk.

Enrico Camosci: A♥K♣
Ihar Soika: A♣Q♣

Camosci looked good for the double-up but the Q♥4♣J♣ was the worst possible flop, Soika flopping top pair and the nut flush draw.

The 10♣ rolled off on the turn to complete the flush and leave Camosci drawing dead, with the 4♠ completing the runout.

Badr Douch: J♥J♣
Luca Marki: A♥3♣
