Dvoress Eliminated by Brewer's Full House

Nível 16 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Right after Daniel Dvoress found a double with a straight, he was right back in the action as Chris Brewer opened 60,000 on the button, and he three-bet 415,000 from the small blind. Brewer made the call.

Both players checked to the river on the 7♦6♦6♠Q♠K♦ board, where Dvoress checked once more before Brewer dropped a chip across the line. Dvoress only had 15,000 remaining and went into the tank. "This might take awhile," he said.

After using multiple time banks, he made the call. Brewer tabled K♠K♥ for a full house, and Dvoress showed A♣5♠ as he left the table.

Brewer Nearly Doubles; Grafton Eliminated

Nível 15 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Stephen Chidwick raised 50,000 on the button, and Chris Brewer defended the big blind.

The dealer fanned a flop of 5♥4♦4♣, and Brewer check-raised the continuation bet of 30,000 to 90,000. Chidwick called.

The 2♦ fell on the turn, and Brewer continued for 105,000. Chidwick called once again.

When the J♣ landed on the river, Brewer pushed almost all of his chips across the line for a bet of 240,000, leaving just 15,000 behind. Chidwick went deep into the tank and eventually tossed in the call. Brewer rolled over 6♣3♣ for a straight, and Chidwick mucked his hand.

At the other table, Sam Grafton was unfortunate to run his ace-jack into pocket aces preflop, and couldn't pull ahead as he was eliminated from the tourament.

Unlucky Runout Sends Marques to the Rail

Nível 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

The action folded around to Sirzat Hissou in the small blind and he announced all-in. Pedro Marques was in the big blind with roughly 250,000. After using a time bank, he reluctantly called.

Pedro Marques: K♣6♦
Sirzat Hissou: 9♠6♠

Marques was way ahead briefly, until the dealer revealed the 8♠7♦3♠ flop, giving Hissou a straight and flush draw. The 7♠ turn sealed Marques' fate and the 2♣ river was just a formality.

Astedt Busts Greenwood

Nível 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action folded to Niklas Astedt who opened the button to 100,000. Sam Greenwood reraised from the small blind to 210,000. Astedt then four-bet jammed all in for around 1,100,000.

Greenwood went deep into the tank as he spread his time banks across the table, flicking one by one in after his given time had elapsed. After deploying four, he put in a chunk of chips to make the call for his tournament life.

Sam Greenwood: 10♦10♥
Niklas Astedt: K♠K♥

The J♥A♠2♦ flop left Greenwood drawing to two tens or a runner-runner straight. The 6♥ turn was no good for Greenwood, nor was the Q♣ river, which eliminated him from the tournament and leaving Astedt with a big pot.
