Nível 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Daniel Cohen raised on the button and was jammed on by Michael Wang's short stack in the small blind.

Cohen called off for roughly 6,000 total and put Wang at risk.

Michael Wang: K♦8♣ All in
Daniel Cohen: Q♠J♣

The flop came K♠9♥6♦ pairing Wang's king, but also giving Cohen a gutshot draw to win. That draw came right in with the 10♠ on the turn as the irrelevant 3♣ completed the board and sent Wang to the rail.

Gregory Scattone raised to 2,400 from middle position and Frederic Blehaut called from the cutoff. Yoan Boubli three-bet jammed for 14,500 from the button and both players called.

With action still on the side, three players headed to a flop of K♥4♣9♥. Scattone moved all in for his last 25,000, which was near enough what Blehaut had behind. Blehaut elected to fold.

Yoan Boubli: A♣8♦ All in
Gregory Scattone: Q♥J♥

Boubli was ahead with ace-high but needed to fade some outs to win the pot. The 6♠ turn and 3♦ river confirmed his triple-up. Blehaut erupted in frustration, implying he would have won the pot had he made the call.

Mihai Joita opened to 3,000 from early position and was called by Karim Kaladjou in the next seat. Action folded to Filippo Malgioglio in middle position, who three-bet to 10,500.

Action folded back to Joita, who moved all in for around 17,000. Kaladjou got out of the way but Malgioglio made the call.

Mihai Joita: A♣K♣ All in
Filippo Malgioglio: A♥A♦

Joita had run Big Slick into his opponent's rockets, and the Q♦10♥6♠7♣8♣ runout confirmed his departure.

Nível 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Action folded to Razvan Scutaru in the hijack, who opened to 2,500, with Thierry Labat defending his big blind.

On the A♥9♥4♠ flop, Labat check-raised to 10,000 versus a continuation-bet of 3,000 from Scutaru. Scutaru called.

The 10♦ rolled off on the turn and Labat fired out a bet of 15,000. Scutaru quickly moved all in for 21,900 and Labat called.

Razvan Scutaru: 4♥4♦ All in
Thierry Labat: A♣7♣

Scutartu had Labat drawing dead with his set of fours and the A♠ river improved him further to a full house. Labat actually thought the ace river had sent him the hand and briefly celebrated before realizing his trip aces were no good.

Ivan Raich limped in from under the gun, a player in early position raised to 4,000 and the button called. Emil Eriksson, in the big blind, put in a raise to 20,000. Raich called off the bet for his effective stack and both remaining opponents elected to muck their cards.

Emil Eriksson: K♥K♠

Raich ran into the kings of Eriksson and the 6♦6♠6♣9♣3♠ runout couldn't save him, sending him to the rail.
