Alexios Zervos opened to 2,500 from the cutoff and was three-bet to 7,500 by Naim Ouachekradi on the button. Tokuya Shuto then four-bet shoved for 36,300 total and Zervos also went all in for 46,000 total. Ouachekradi got out of the way and hands were revealed.
Tokuya Shuto: A♥A♠
Alexios Zervos: A♣K♦
It was a cooler for Zervos, who found himself in terrible shape with Big Slick.
The 5♥9♥3♦Q♦A♦ runout kept Shuto best and he doubled up.
In a preflop contest, the chips of Max Petzelberger and Igor Pihela went into the middle of the table with the former at risk for 18,700.
Max Petzelberger: 10♥10♠
Igor Pihela: A♠K♠
The 6♠4♦2♣6♣5♣ board provided no paint and just one spade to ensure the double of Petzelberger.
Mihai-Emil Isar opened to 2,200 from early position and was called by PokerStars ambassador Maria Konnikova in the hijack, Mario Trattou in the cutoff, and Luka Bojovic in the big blind.
Bojovic checked to Isar on the Q♣9♣6x flop and he continued for 6,000. Only Konnikova called.
The 10♠ fell on the turn and Bojovic bet 7,600. Konnikova announced she was all in, which was enough to put Bojovic all in for 17,600 total. Bojovic quickly called and a showdown was held.
Luka Bojovic:A♣A♥
Maria Konnikova: Q♥10♥
Bojovic would need some help against Konnikova's turned two pair, but the 3♥ river bricked out and Bojovic was sent to the rail.
With some 39,000 in the middle to the J♥10♣4♣8♥9♣ river, Hoa Nguyen bet 45,700 and kept exactly one T-1,000 chip behind. That covered his sole remaining opponent Luis Dono, who went deep into the tank. The clock was called on Dono, who folded within the allocated thirty seconds.
Nguyen moved to nearly three times the starting stack, which is one of the bigger stacks in the room right now.
Nível: 9
Blinds: 600/1,200
Ante: 1,200
With around 13,000 in the middle, Zhongxian Li had checked and Marius Gicovanu bet 3,000 on the button on a turn showing 9♠5♠2♣6♠. There was some tussle at the table as another player apparently spoke in a different native language but the play eventually carried on, as Li called.
Both checked the Q♣ river and Li tabled his 10♦8♦, Gicovanu won the pot with the 8♠8♣.
Maroun Jazzar opened to 2,000 from the hijack and was called by Endrit Geci in the small blind and Hongru Zhang in the big blind.
It was checked to Jazzar on the 10♣4♠Q♠ flop and he continued for 4,000. Only Zhang called.
Both players checked on the 10♠ turn and Zhang took the initiative by shoving for his last 12,100 on the 3♥ river.
Jazzar thought it over and showed he held the Q♦ before sending his hand into the muck.
A shorter-stacked Piotr Wiecek got it in with a pair as he revealed the 7♦7♣. He was up against the A♣5♣ of Cesar Garcia Dominguez and the Spaniard got there until the J♥3♦2♣4♠ turn to make the 4♥ river a formality.
The vacated seat of Wiecek was filled by Lander Lijo.
Following an open raise to 1,200 and three callers, Yasuhiro Waki pushed all-in from the big blind after he had just entered a few minutes ago. The only one to call was Enzo Enzo in the cutoff and they flipped them over.
Yasuhiro Waki: A♣6♦
Enzo Enzo: A♠J♠
The K♥3♦3♣3♥5♥ board ensured a split pot as the king on the board kept Waki in contention.
