Dentale Ends It for Weisman

Livello 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

PokerNews saw Dylan Weisman collecting their belongings to exit the tournament area and Michael Dentale still had the A♠Ax7♠10x in font of him. The last time these two clashed, Weisman had found the double. There was no such luck this time, as it was reported that Weisman had the Q♦J♦10♦7♣ and was unable to improve to beat Dentale's aces.

Dentale had only good things to say of Weisman, remarking that he's an excellent player and that it was a pleasure to play with him.

Weisman will be one to watch in Omaha events throughout the summer.

Jorge Hou: K♣Q♣7♥6♥
Ronald Keijzer: A♣Q♦J♦2♣

Hou took the lead after the 2♥K♦4♥ flop, but Keijzer connected with the J♣ turn to make two pair. The 2♦ river left Keijzer with a full house, as Hou's tournament run came to and end.

Frederici Doubles Again

Livello 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Gheorghe Butuc opened from early position and called when Seth Frederici moved all in. "Please don't have aces" said Frederici as the cards were turned over.

Seth Frederici: A♦K♠5♣3♦
Gheorghe Butuc: K♣K♥8♥4♦

"I can beat Kings" claimed Frederici, as the J♦9♦4♥ brought a flush draw. The 7♦ turn completed Frederici's flush while the 5♦ river completed the board to cement another double-up.

For It Was Whitton

Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Robert Zarzycki got his last few big blinds into the middle and was isolated by the bigger stack of Michael Whitton.

Robert Zarzycki: 6♥6♠4♥7♠
Michael Whitton: A♠Q♥J♠J♥

The board came down all Broadway cards and since Whitton had the suits covered, there was hardly a sweat on the turn ore river, as all Zarzycki could catch was a six.

No Comeback For Williams

Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

David Williams was left short-stacked after the previous hand and slid his final 50,000 into the middle from early position. Liming Chu raised to 100,000 on the button and the blinds got out of the way.

David Williams: A♥10♥4♦3♠
Liming Chu: A♠Q♥Q♦10♠

Williams was trailing and found no help on the 2♦9♦5♣ flop. The J♣ turn changed nothing, while the 8♦ river gave Chu a straight to end Williams' tournament run.

The tournament broke down to the final seven tables, as Filippos Stavrakis was also headed to the rail.

Elezra Eliminates Another One

Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

A short stacked, Seth Frederici put the rest of his chips in preflop against Eli Elezra and the rest of the table folded. Frederici was distressed to see Elezra not only had the better hand, but also had one of his suits covered.

Seth Frederici: K♦5♦J♥6♥
Eli Elezra: A♣A♦8♥10♥

The board ran out 8♣8♠6♦, the turn was a brick, ad when the 6♣ rolled off on the river, Frederici thought he won for a moment before realizing Elezra had flopped trips, leaving him without a chance.

Ogwo Eliminated With Nut Flush

Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Praise Ogwo could be heard unironically shouting, "Oh, Jesus..." as Nicoas Gola rolled his hand.

When PokerNews made their way over there was a board reading J♣5♥4♥5♦3♥ and Ogwo had called a large river bet for most of his stack and saw that his A♥8♥XxXx was no good against the rivered straight flush of Gola who showed 6♥2♥10♣10♦.

Gola let PokerNews know he had limped preflop, bet the flop, bet the turn, and barreled the river. A boon for Gola was misfortune for Ogwo and he was eliminated shortly after, as he was only left with a few big blinds.

Liming Chu: A♣A♥Q♠5♠
Senh Cong: K♣10♥8♣8♥
