Daniel Smiljkovic: K♠10♣
Adrian Mateos: A♣7♥

Mateos remained in the lead on the 9♠J♥6♠ flop, but Smiljkovic hit the 10♥ on the turn to make a pair. The river, though, was the A♦ and Mateos spiked his ace to win the pot and send Smiljkovic to the rail.

Andersson Can Not Beat Rockets

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

Joakim Andersson and Adrian Mateos had arrived on the river on 2♠7♥J♦2♥5♦. With around 190,000 chips already in the middle, Andersson checked from the big blind to Mateos under the gun.

Mateos then put enough chips in the middle to put Andersson all in for his stack of 85,000. Andersson thought it over for a bit but ended up making the call.

Mateos tabled A♠A♦ and Andersson could not beat that as his cards flew into the muck while he took his leave.

On another table, Sergi Reixach was also eliminated from the tournament.

Nível 11 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Santhosh Suvarna had a raise of 22,000 in front of him from the button and Jean-Noel Thorel reraised to 75,000 in early position. Suvarna then moved all in and Thorel called for 226,000.

Jean-Noel Thorel: A♣Q♦
Santhosh Suvarna: A♦K♣

Lonis Flops Quads, Kuznetsov Still Not Drawing Dead

dsalituro

Nível 11 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Nikita Kuznetsov raised to 11,000 in middle position before Jesse Lonis moved all in for 78,000 on the button. Kuznetsov used up nearly his entire time clock before calling.

Jesse Lonis: 8♦8♠
Nikita Kuznetsov: K♣Q♣

The two players were racing, but it didn't stay a coin flip for long as the flop brought J♣8♣8♥, giving Lonis quads. The turn was the 9♣ and Kuznetsov picked up a straight flush draw, but he missed the 3♠ river and Lonis doubled up.

Several players are still voicing their disapproval of the late registration ruling and continue to have discussions with tournament officials. "The people aren't happy. They're getting pitchforks," Sam Grafton said.
