Niklas Astedt opened the action for 2,500 from early position and Portugal's Antonio Matias, who was next to act, three-bet jammed for 57,400. The UK's Donald Rae, who was to Matias' direct left, then four-bet all in over the top, which cleared out the rest of the players including Astedt.
Rae: ![]()
![]()
Matias: ![]()
![]()
It was a flip, but Matiaas needed to improve to stay alive. That proved easier said than done though as the board ran out a lowly ![]()
![]()

The biggest pot of the tournament just took place and proved an awesome display of poker by both Kacper Pyzara and Simon Higgins.
It began when the latter opened the button for 2,000 and the former raised to 6,000. Higgins made the call and then called a bet of 6,000 on the ![]()
![]()
flop. After the dealer burned and turned the
, Pyzara fired out 16,000 and again Higgins called.
When the
double paired the board on the river, Pyzara led out for 55,000 and Higgins paused for a few moments before raising all in for 110,200 total.
Pyzara shot back in his chair and clearly wasn't thrilled with the turn of events. Over the next two minutes, Pyzara teetered back and forth between a call and a fold, oftentimes picking up chips and putting them back down. Eventually he shrugged, tossed forward a stack, and at that very moment Higgins began to rise.
Higgins showed the ![]()
for nines and eights, but he seemed to know he was no good. Indeed, Pyzara held the ![]()
for a bigger two pair and the win.
"I knew what he had," Higgins told the table. "I didn't think he'd call. Nice hand."

EPT12 Barcelona champ John Juanda, who was also inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame last month, opened for 2,200 from the cutoff only to have Nicholas Palma three-bet to 6,800 from the small blind. Juanda made the call and then folded when Palma bet 6,000 on the ![]()
![]()
flop. Not much of a hand, but it gave us a good excuse to update you on their current counts.

In the last hand of Level 7, with 47,000 in the pot and a board reading ![]()
![]()
![]()
, Fady Kamar checked from the under-the-gun position and Tobias Reinkemeier bet 16,000 from early position. Kamar responded by check-raising all in, and Reinkemeier hit the tank for more than three minutes before calling off his remaining 38,000.
Reinkemeier: ![]()
![]()
Kamar: ![]()
![]()
The
river was no help to Reinkemeier and he was sent to the rail. That said, he has yet to use his reentry option, so we expect to see him back in action sooner or later.

A clash of two players from the United Kingdom has resulted in Ben Dobson climbing to almost 80,000 chips.
Tamer Kamel started the preflop round with a 1,700 raise, a raise that Dobson called from the big blind. Dobson checked the arrival of the ![]()
![]()
flop, but when Kamel bet 2,000, Dobson check-raised to 6,000. Kamel called.
Dobson bet 8,700 on the
turn and was called, before he checked the
river. Kamel bet enough to set Dobson al-in for his last 30,400 chips and after a couple of minutes of replaying the hand in his head, Dobson called with ![]()
and was good because Kamel mucked.
