Bernhauser Bows Out Late On

Livello 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

On a completed board of K♠8♦3♣4♥9♠, Noa Chan checked out of the big blind. He then faced the button shove for 37,300 by Fabian Bernhauser and went into the tank.

Chan eventually called and Bernhauser revealed his K♦4♣ for turned two pair, kings and fours.

A very relieved Chan flipped over his K♣9♥ for kings and nines to win the late pot, which he celebrated accordingly.

Livello 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Matteo Cavelier opened to 2,600 from early position before Kostadin Kostadinov three-bet to 7,500 from the cutoff. Fahredin Mustafov jammed for 17,500 from the big blind, which folded out Cavelier but Kostadinov flicked in a calling chip.

Fahredin Mustafov: A♥K♦
Kostadin Kostadinov: J♥10♥

The Q♠9♣2♣ gave Kostadinov an open-ended straight draw which came in on the 8♦ turn to leave Mustafov drawing dead. He steamed to the exit as the 3♥ completed the board.

Livello 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Diogo Cardoso jammed for 12,200 from the hijack and was called by Eric Sfez from the button.

Cardoso tabled 8♦7♦ and was behind his opponent's A♥J♥.

Both players paired up on the J♣8♣6♣ flop, keeping Cardoso behind. The 4♠4♣ runout offered no help and Sfez sealed the elimination.

Kenjic Flipped Out by Prieto Roldan

Livello 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Jovan Kenjic had previously chopped with Jan Kesänen when his queen-jack was dominated by the A♦Q♦ of Jan Kesänen. He now three-bet jammed for 21.300 and Samuel Prieto Roldan quickly called.

Jovan Kenjic: Q♦J♦
Samuel Prieto Roldan: 10♠10♦

The pocket pair remained ahead on the 8♣5♠4♥8♥7♦ runout and Kenjic grabbed his belongings.

"Good luck tomorrow," another player at the table remarked.

Straver Runs Into Aces to Bust

Livello 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Johannes Straver open-jammed for the last 12,800 on the button and Aleksandr Shevliakov in the small blind asked for an exact count, then tossed in a single chip for the call. Bernard Darmon in the big blind folded.

Johannes Straver: Q♥10♣
Aleksandr Shevliakov: A♦A♠

Straver earned a lot of equity on the 7♣3♣2♣ flop and 10♦ turn, but the 6♠ river was a blank to send the Dutchman to the rail.

Guelpa Eliminated by Jorgne

Livello 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

With some 17,000 in the middle to the 10♥9♣7♥ flop, Stephane Guelpa checked in middle position. Peter Jorgne bet 6,500 in the cutoff only to get check-raised to 21,000. Jorgne then pushed all-in and Guelpa called.

Stephane Guelpa: 9♥8♥
Peter Jorgne: 7♦7♠

Jorgne was ahead with a set of sevens and whispered "no heart". That request was granted on the 2♠ turn and 3♦ river before the stacks were counted. Jorgne's 116,700 covered as Guelpa only had around 102,000 and last year's runner-up soared to one of the biggest stacks in the room.

Troyanovskiy Hero-Calls At the Wrong Time

Livello 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

With the turn showing 7♣5♣2♠6♥, Antoine Camors bet 11,500 out of the small blind and Vladimir Troyanovskiy called in the big blind. Carmors then jammed the J♠ on the river and Troyanovskiy went into a brief tank.

With around 27,000 behind, Troyanovskiy opted to call all-in and Camors exposed his 5♠5♥ for a set of fives. Troyanovskiy flashed his 8♠2♣ for the bottom pair and exited the tournament area without word.

There was some utter confusion by the other players at the table before Gediminas Uselis explained that there had been an open-raise and a call by Camors in the small blind. Troyanovskiy squeezed in the big blind, then checked back the flop before calling the turn and river.

Flip Turns Into Quads for Smith

Livello 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Elliot Smith in middle position got his stack of 35,000 in the middle against Evgenii Fidchuk on the button.

Elliot Smith: 9♠9♥
Evgenii Fidchuk: A♥K♣

Fidchuk sprung ahead when he flopped trips on Q♥A♣A♠, but the A♦ turn locked up the pot for him as he made four of a kind. The 9♣ river put some salt in the wound of Fidchuk, who quickly headed to the exit.
