Locher Falls To Bicknell

Nível 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Kristen Bicknell was under the gun and opened to 6,500. Everybody folded around to Dominik Locher, who defended his big blind.

The flop came and Locher check-raised all in over a continuation-bet of 5,000 from Bicknell, who called immediately.

Dominik Locher:
Kristen Bicknell:

Bicknell learned that her set of fives was up against nothing more than top pair, meaning she did not need to fade a heart to remain best. Locher found himself needing to hit running cards to a full house or backdoor hearts to chop, and the turn spoiled his chances at either. The river fell behind to complete the runout and Locher wished the table a good game and was on his way as the pot was shipped to Bicknell.

Meanwhile, Sam Grafton was seen on the same table having increased his stack to 320,000 and Conor Beresford was seen with a massive 595,000 on an adjacent table, making him the likely chip leader at this point in the tournament.

Tsakiris Pushes Out Everyone

Nível 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Henri Lauret was under the gun and opened to 7,500. He was called by Per Backlund in middle position, and Michiel Brosky three-bet to 30,000 from the hijack. The cutoff folded and action was then on Ioannis Tsakiris, who was on the button and announced he was all in.

"Alright, you got it," said Brosky, sending his cards to the muck to result in a won pot preflop for Tsakiris.
