dsalituro

Nível 23 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Albert Daher asked Mikita Badziakouski how much he was playing as Badziakouski determined his stack was 1,400,000.

"We're exactly even," Daher said. Badziakouski then limped in, Daher shoved all in, and Badziakouski folded.

The next hand, Daher was the one to limp and Badziakouski shoved for 1,200,000. Daher snap-called.

Mikita Badziakouski: A♥2♦
Albert Daher: A♠J♠

"Time for a bad beat," Badziakouski said after seeing he was dominated. The board came 10♦5♥Q♥J♥ and Badziakouski picked up a flush draw heading to the river, but he missed the 10♣ as Daher took the pot and the trophy.

Nível 22 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Albert Daher moved all in from the button, covering both players in the blinds by a wide margin. Daniel Rezaei called off in the small blind for his last 115,000 and Sam Greenwood called off in the small blind as well with a stack of roughly 600,000.

Daniel Rezaei: A♥2♠
Sam Greenwood: 10♠10♦
Albert Daher, J♣9♦

Greenwood looked to be in good shape to scoop a massive pot but the 9♣9♥5♠ shifted things in Daher's favor. The 4♥ turn gave Rezaei some outs in the form of a gutshot straight draw but the A♦ river was clean for Daher, who scored the double knockout and scooped a massive pot. He is now heads up with just under ninety-percent of the total chips in play.

Sam Greenwood stuck in a tower of green 25,000 chips on the button, easily covering Mikita Badziakouski and Adrian Mateos in the blinds. Badziakouski folded, but Mateos let out a laugh then called for his last 60,000.

Adrian Mateos: 7♣3♠
Sam Greenwood: K♣6♦

The board ran out J♦Q♦5♠2♦Q♠ and Greenwood's king-kicker was enough to win the pot and send Mateos to the rail in fifth place.

Nível 20 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Artur Martirosian opened to 125,000 from the button, leaving 50,000 behind. Daher raised all in with a covering stack from the big blind and Martirosian called to put himself at risk.

Artur Martirosian: A♠7♣
Albert Daher: 10♦8♣

"I have forty percent!" Daher declared, although he had far more than that when he flopped top two pair on the 10♠8♠4♦ flop. Dahar remained ahead on the 4♥ turn and J♣ river to take the pot and send Martirosian to the rail on the stone bubble.

Daniel Rezaei: 10♠10♦

dsalituro

Nível 14 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

A hand after doubling up Enrico Camosci, Gha Iakobishvili moved all in for 18,000 and Artur Martirosian called in the big blind.

Gha Iakobishvili: 10♠4♠
Artur Martirosian: K♣6♦

"Three black. You can't win," Iakobishvili told Albert Daher heading to the flop, which came 9♦4♣6♣ with two black cards. Martirosian had the lead with a pair of sixes, but Iakobishvili improved to trips on the 4♥ turn.

"No, I don't want to win," Iakobishvili said, but the 9♠ river sealed his double up but cost him $6,000 to Daher.

The next hand, Iakobishvili was in the big blind and Daher raised to 20,000 in early position. "You're going to be the one to bust me," Iakobishvili said as he stuck in his last chips and Daher called.

Gha Iakobishvili: 10♥2♣
Albert Daher: K♣9♣

The flop again brought two black cards with K♦2♠A♣ as Daher made a pair of kings. The board ran out 5♣4♠ and Iakobishvili's entertaining run came to an end.

Steve O'Dwyer: A♦6♥
Daniel Rezaei: K♥Q♠

The flop came 6♠2♥10♣, keeping O'Dwyer in the lead with a pair of sixes. Rezaei couldn't connect with the 3♣ turn, but the river came the Q♣ and Rezaei made a pair of queens to send O'Dwyer to the rail.

In the last hand of the level, Daniel Rezaei raised to 12,000 from the button and Joao Vieira jammed his 107,000 chips in from the small blind. Steve O'Dwyer folded the big blind and Rezaei immediately put in the calling chips.

Joao Vieira: K♦Q♦
Daniel Rezaei: A♥J♥

No sweat for Rezaei, who won the hand with a pair of aces on 2♦8♠4♣7♣A♣. Vieira was ousted in 11th place, leaving the ten remaining players on the final table bubble.

Nível 12 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Alexander Tkatschew put in his last 21,000, as well as his Raphael Ninja Turtles figurine, in the middle from the button as Joao Vieira reshoved in the small blind. Steve O'Dwyer quickly folded his big blind.

Alexander Tkatschew: J♠9♦
Joao Vieira: A♥K♠

Tkatschew took the lead on the J♦10♦3♣ flop with a pair of jacks, and stayed in front on the 6♥ turn. The river, though, was the A♠ and Vieira made top pair to send Tkatschew to the rail, but not before remembering to grab his figurine from the middle of the pot.
