The Daily EPT10 Player of the Year Update for 4-30-14

Nível 24 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

The European Poker Tour Season 10 Player of the Year race is nearing an end, and as you know players have been accumulating points in all events throughout Season 10, regardless of the buy-in level. In addition, all of the Festival Events (Estrellas, UKIPT, Eureka, FPS, IPT) that combine with an EPT tour stop have been eligible for Player of the Year points. The winner of this season’s award will walk away with €50,000 in Main Event buy-ins, good for any PokerStars or Full Tilt sponsored event.

The Global Poker Index (GPI) points formula, which will be used to determine the EPT10 POY, is a bit complicated, but you can read about all the details here.

Here are the current top ten on the EPT10 POY Leaderboard. As you can see, Ole Schemion is running away with it and is a near lock to lay claim to the title, especially since he finished seventh in the Super High Roller here in Monte Carlo.

Firsau's Ace-High is good for a 900,000 Chip Pot

Nível 24 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Vasili Firsau raised to 51,000 preflop before Mayu Roca made it 132,000 in the big blind.

Firsau made the call to see a {5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{10-Spades} flop, Roca bet 110,000 and Firsau made the call. The turn was the {7-Spades} and Roca checked, Firsau now bet 205,000 and Roca chose to call this time.

The river was the {3-Hearts} and both players checked. Roca showed {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} for a missed flush draw and lost out to Firsau's {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}.

[Removed:17] Eliminated in 19th Place (€49,350)

[Removed:17] - 20th Place
[Removed:17] - 20th Place

[Removed:17] opened for 50,000 preflop and received a call from Antonio Buonanno. the {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{10-Hearts} flop saw Yan continue for 85,000, and Buonanno flatted. When the dealer burned and turned the {3-Diamonds}, action exploded. Yan bet 155,000, Buonanno moved all in, and Yan, who had about the same size stack, snap-called off.

Yan: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Buonanno: {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Both players hit the flop hard, but Yan's set was second best to Buonanno's straight. The {K-Spades} failed to pair the board on the river, and Yan shook hands with everyone remaining at the table before taking his leave in 20th place.

Scott Clements Eliminated in 20th Place (€49,350)

Nível 24 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante
Scott Clements - 19th Place
Scott Clements - 19th Place

There will be no Triple Crown for Scott Clements.

Just prior to the last break he was crippled by Steven Silverman, and he just busted at the same time as [Removed:17], albeit one table over.

It happened when Clements moved all in for 150,000 from middle position and Malte Moennig looked him up from the cutoff. The rest of the players folded and it was off to the races.

Moennig: {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Clements: {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}

Clements was ahead, but not after the flop came down {10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{k-Clubs}. The {Q-Clubs} turn improved Moenning to two pair, which meant Clements needed a seven from heaven to extended his tournament life. The dealer burned one last time and put out the {4-Clubs}.

Clements missed and was eliminated in 19th place. "Good luck everybody," he offered before making his way to the payout desk to collect €49,350.

Clements Clipped Just Before the Break

Nível 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Just before the break, Steven Silverman opened for 42,000 from the cutoff and was met by a three-bet from Scott Clements on the button. The blinds both folded, and then Silverman four-bet jammed. Clements called.

Clements: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Silverman: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}

Both players held a queen, which meant Clements' ace had him well out in front. That all changed though when the {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} flop hit Silverman's jack. Clements could still win with either an ace or king, but neither appeared as the {6-Spades} blanked on the turn followed by the {9-Hearts} on the river.
