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

Gha Iakobishvili raised to 12,000 in early position as action folded to Albert Daher in the cutoff, who asked how much he had behind.

"Why do you ask? Do you want to bust me? If you bust me you can't win at flips," Iakobishvili said as Daher just called. Mikita Badziakouski also called in the big blind.

The flop came J♠3♥4♦ and Iakobishvili continued for 12,000. Daher called, while Badziakouski got out of the way.

Both players checked the K♣ turn before Iakobishvili led out for 35,000 on the 6♦ river. Daher then used a time bank before raising to 115,000.

"You took so long to raise me," Iakobishvili said, splashing in a call. Daher then turned over 6♥6♠ for a rivered set.

"Of course you have the sixes. I'm so tilted," Iakobishvili said as he was moved to the other table right after this hand.

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.

Daher Gives Greenwood a Spin

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

Albert Daher raised to 12,000 from the hijack before Sam Greenwood three-bet jammed 56,000 from the cutoff. The action folded back to Daher, who stated to Greenwood: "I'll give you a spin." He put in the call and the cards were tabled.

Sam Greenwood: A♥A♦
Albert Daher: Q♣J♦

"Can I take it back?" Daher joked. However, it was not allowed, and the Q♥7♦6♦5♥10♦ board saw Greenwood's aces hold for a full double-up.

Tkatschew Saved by the River

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

Alexander Tkatschew moved all in for 17,000 from the cutoff and the action folded to Adrian Mateos in the big blind, who called.

Alexander Tkatschew: K♦9♦
Adrian Mateos: J♣5♥

Mateos outflopped Tkatschew on the 3♠J♦A♥ flop, but Tkatschew still doubled up when he hit his three-outer on the 6♠K♥ runout. The Austrian doubled up, but is still very much in the danger zone with seven big blinds.

Adrian Mateos raised to 12,000 in the cutoff, then called for his last 56,000 when Alexander Tkatschew moved all in from the small blind.

Adrian Mateos: A♦A♥
Alexander Tkatschew: 9♥9♠

Mateos had aces in a preflop all-in pot for the second time today and unlike his first encounter with Enrico Camosci earlier, he held on through the 3♣10♦Q♣3♥10♠ board to double up.
