Kanit tabled {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for a set of fives and Grafton showed {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for a pair of tens before heading to the exit.

Nível 15 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Mustapha Kanit
Mustapha Kanit

Mustapha Kanit was up to over 700,000 chips at one point today but has since given some back at the hands of Vicent Bosca. The two back at it when Kanit opened to 11,000 in middle position and was called by Bosca in the small blind and Oleh Okhotskyi in the big blind.

The flop fell {j-Spades}{9-Spades}{9-Clubs} and the action checked to Kanit who bet 14,000. Bosca called and Okhotskyi stepped aside. The turn brought the {2-Hearts} and Bosca check-called another bet of 42,000 from Kanit.

The river was the {3-Spades} and Bosca checked for the third time. Kanit slid out a bet of 70,000 and Bosca gave it some thought but sent his cards to the muck.

Shyngis Satubayev opened to 16,000 from middle position and Steven Van Zadelhoff called from the hijack along with Maria Konnikova on the button, Mustapha Kanit in the small blind, and Andreas Berggren in the big blind.

The dealer fanned a flop of {8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and Berggren and Satubayev checked. Van Zadelhoff bet 27,000 and Konnikova responded by moving all in for about 118,000. Van Zadelhoff was the only caller.

Maria Konnikova: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Steven Van Zadelhoff: {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Konnikova had nines but Van Zadelhoff had flopped a set of eights. The {4-Spades} turn and {q-Hearts} river filled up the board and Van Zadelhoff raked in the pot, eliminating Konnikova from the tournament.

Daisuke Ogita Bubbles €10,300 High Roller

Nível 18 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Daisuke Ogita
Daisuke Ogita

The big blind ante dynamic created a very interesting situation involving Daisuke Ogita and Takumi Samejima. Players were sat next to one another with Ogita under the gun.

He had 25,000 in chips with Samejima sitting with 18,000 in chips. Despite of this, if both players folded and were subsequently eliminated when Samejima was in his big blind, it would be Samejima - the short stack at the moment - who would collect the payout because he would have more chips at the time he was all in.

Therefore, the onus was on Ogita to double up or at least chip up. He shoved from under the gun for 25,000 - Samejima folded - and Rafael Moraes called blind in the big blind.

The remaining hands were all finished and the cards were turned over.

Rafael Moraes: {3-Spades}{4-Diamonds}
Daisuke Ogita: {a-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

Ogita was ahead, but the {k-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop favoured Moraes. The Brazilian called for a six, with tablemate Max Silver calling for a seven, and the turn was the {7-Clubs} offering Ogita some counterfeit outs. The river was the {10-Hearts} and Ogita was eliminated, ensuring the remaining 79 players €17,810.

Martini Takes a Couple Bad Beats

Nível 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Julien Martini
Julien Martini

The action folded to Rafael Moraes on the button who shipped all in for around 200,000. Julien Martini called from the small blind and was in a great position. Martini showed {a-Clubs}{q-Spades} against the {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} of Moraes.

The flop came {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts} to give both players a pair but Martini's was the one in front. The {7-Diamonds} changed nothing on the turn but it was the {9-Diamonds} on the river that sent a double up to Moraes.

A couple of hands later, Martini got the last of his chips in the middle with {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. He was up against Ibrahim Ghassan's {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} but Martini took the lead on the flop of {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. Unfortunately for him, he was unable to hold with the {2-Diamonds} on the turn and the {7-Diamonds} on the river as Ghassan made a flush.

Luc Greenwood
Luc Greenwood

Antonios Paschalidis opened to 34,000 from the cutoff and Luc Greenwood three-bet to 90,000 from the button. Paschalidis added the remainder to call.

The flop fell {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}{3-Spades} and Paschalidis checked. Greenwood bet 75,000 and Paschalidis check-called.

The turn brought the {7-Clubs} and Paschalidis moved all in for about 940,000. Greenwood, with 305,000 behind, went into the tank, then called.

Luc Greenwood: {a-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Antonios Paschalidis: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

Greenwood had a pair of aces but Paschalidis had a set of sevens. The {6-Spades} river completed the board and Paschalidis took down the pot, sending Greenwood to the rail.

Michael “mczhang” Zhang’s Journey from £15 Buy-ins to £100Ks

Nível 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Michael Zhang
Michael Zhang

It’s not always easy to tell just how far a poker player has come in their career from scrolling through a Hendon Mob profile. Take the first cashes of Justin Bonomo, Isaac Haxton, and Steve O’Dwyer for example. They all jumped straight into playing $10,000 buy-in live tournaments, hinting they were already doing pretty well online before opting to dabble in live poker.

That’s what makes Michael “mczhang” Zhang’s Hendon Mob so interesting. His first tournament cashes come from a string of £15 beginner’s tournaments at his local card room (Nottingham’s Dusk Till Dawn) throughout 2013, when he was just 18 years old. A year later he was still grinding anything from £25 freezeouts to £400 local Main Events.

“I used to sneak off to play £10 tournaments because my parents wouldn’t let me play,” Zhang tells PokerStars Blog, on break from the €10K High Roller at EPT Barcelona.
