Byron Kaverman raised to 45,000 and was called by Kevin MacPhee in the small blind. [Removed:17] moved all in from the big blind for what looked like around 400,000 chips and MacPhee said over to the other side of the table that he had around 500,000 himself. Kaverman let go and so did MacPhee.
Roberto Romanello open shoved for 285,000 and David Peters re-shoved for just a few chips less. The rest folded and the cards were tabled:
Peters:
Romanello:
It was a classic cooler and Peters kept the lead through the flop. The turn was a different story though, with Romanello taking the lead and Peters immediately dropping his head. The river brought no queen and when the fell instead, it took Peters with it.
One hand before, Patrick Uzan had raised to 50,000 from under the gun and claimed the blinds and antes. The very next hand the action folded around to Igor Yaroshevskyy and he shoved the small blind for 165,000. Uzan called and put his opponent at risk:
Uzan:
Yaroshevskyy:
The flop left Yaroshevskyy in desperate shape, though he picked up some outs on the turn. The river blanked and the Ukrainian headed to the rail.
Byron Kaverman has taken over control of his table and plays many hands. The latest two examples saw him attack the big blinds of Bryn Kenney and Kevin MacPhee. Against Kenney, his second barrel worth 115,000 on the flop worked and Kenney check-folded.
In the second hand, MacPhee check-called the turn for 80,000 and then also checked the river. Kaverman fired 180,000 and was called to reveal for two pair, aces and nines, as winning hand.
MacPhee doubled up straight after in a battle of the blinds against [Removed:17] to almost even out their short stacks.
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau raised to 50,000 from the cutoff and Patrick Uzan called. They checked down the board entirely and Uzan showed the . Vaskaboinikau, seemingly frustrated, smashed the to the middle of the table.
In the next hand, Vladimir Dobrovolskiy raised to 45,000 from under the gun and Vaskaboinikau moved all in for 276,000. Dobrovolskiy folded and Vaskaboinikau said with his heavy accent "no bluff, my friend," flipping over the .
The stack of Ezequiel Kleinman had been whittled down all the way to 160,000 and he moved all in from early position. From two seats over, Martin Finger announced all in himself and that got the rest of the table to fold their cards.
Kleinman:
Finger:
The flop was no good for the Argentinian and he was drawing to fives and aces only on the turn. The river was of no help and Kleinman headed to the rail in 13th place for €33,200.
