Predaroli Picks Off Saffran

Livello 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Alessandro Predaroli opened to 14,000 from middle position and found one caller in Robert Saffran in the big blind.

Saffran check-called a 17,000 bet from Predaroli on the 8♠J♦5♠ flop and then both players checked on the 10♣ turn.

Saffran led out for 21,000 after the 2♥ completed the board and Predaroli quickly called. Saffran tabled A♠4♥, which was no good against Predaroli's Q♠J♥.

Hero Call Goes Wrong for Kempe

Livello 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

With two players seeing a board of A♣7♣4♥2♥ and roughly 90,000 in the middle, Moritz Dietrich moved all in for his last 31,500 from the small blind. Rainer Kempe thought about his decision for approximately 90 seconds before making the call with a covering stack to put Dietrich at risk.

Moritz Dietrich: A♥9♣
Rainer Kempe: K♦5♦

Dietrich's top pair was well ahead of Kempe's king-high but he still had to fade a gutshot straight draw to extend his tournament life. The 4♣ river was clean and Dietrich secured a full double up while Kempe was left with under ten big blinds.

Livello 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Bastien May opened to 12,000 from early position and Henning Wendlandt shoved for around 40,000 on the button. Action folded back to May, who asked for a count and then called to put Wendlandt at risk.

Henning Wendlandt: K♠Q♥
Bastien May: 6♦6♠

The 10♣9♥Q♦ flop paired Wendlandt's queen to take the lead, but the 6♥ turn gave May a set. Wendlandt still had outs to draw to a straight, but the 3♦ river bricked out and Wendlandt was eliminated.
