Bourdon Races For the Double
Nível 11
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
A player in early position raised to 4,000 and Daniel Bourdon called before Louis Nyberg pushed all in for about 50,000. The initial raiser folded by Bourdon called.
Nyberg: 
Bourdon: 
The board ran out 
and Nyberg paid the double-up, finding out that they two were almost perfectly even in stacks. Nyberg was left with just 500 chips. He got them all in on the next hand and won the hand to collect a few more chips, but lost them all on the hand after that.

Esenkulov is all Heart
Nível 11
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
We caught the action on the river with the board reading 
and a sizable amount of chips already in the center of the table.
Sitting in the cutoff Esenkulov has a bet totaling roughly 12,500 or so out on the felt and is facing an all-in from button Qifeng Duan.
“Will you fold if I show?” quizzed Esenkulov.
“Hmm, ok you did show me you had queens earlier,” replied Duan.
“I’m going to fold this then,” said Esenkulov, rolling over 
for a small heart flush. The rest of the table looked perplexed until Duan obligingly turned over 
.
“Nice fold man,” said Duan as he raked in the pot.
That canny fold saved the Russian a hell of a lot of chips – many players would have happily called off there but then it’s just like Kenny Rogers says (or sings) poker is all about knowing when to hold’em and knowing when to fold’em.

Egan Doubles, Gives Some Back
Nível 11
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
We were late to the action but arrived to catch Michael Egan's stack being counted. Egan had 
in front of him and across the table was the 
of his opponent's. In between them was a 
board which Egan had the best of.
Egan's all-in was for about 86,000, doubling up to almost 190,000.
The very next hand, Egan called an under-the-gun open to 3,500 from Shyngis Satubayev, which was also called by the player in the big blind.
The flop came 
and Satubayev continued for 4,500. Just Egan called. The turn brought the 
into the mix and Egan once again called a bet from Satubayev, this time for 12,500.
The river was the and Satubayev moved all-in. Egan quickly folded, still sitting pretty, while Satubayev gained some light.

Bulychev Pushes Off Vehvilainen
Nível 11
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
We caught the action on the river in a sizable pot that had developed between Russia’s Egor Bulychev and Finland’s Paul Vehvilainen.
There was already close to 60,000 in the pot with the community cards reading 
Vehvilainen was facing down a Bulychev shove of 67,400.
The Fin tanked long and hard but eventually decided discretion is the better part of valor and grudgingly found the fold. Vehvilainen dropped some but still had a very respectable stack of 165,000 while Bulychev chipped up to 127,000.

Nível 11
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
A decent sized pot was brewing between John Gallagher and a heads-up opponent. The two had amassed a pot worth about 50,000 on a 
board.
Gallagher pulled the trigger from the small blind and fired a bet of 17,000 to which his opponent, on the button, called.
The completed the board on the river and Gallagher took a moment before moving all-in. His opponent quickly folded and Gallagher was awarded the pot.

Loo Wins From Huang
Nível 11
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Poker professional Bryan Huang is still plugging away in the Main Event, though he has just lost a pot to Junzhong Loo.
We caught the action on a flop of 
with over 18,000 in the pot just as Loo led out for 5,500 from the small blind. Huang, sitting in middle position, thought it over before sliding in the call and the dealer burned and turned the 
.
Loo took his time over the decision but decided to fire twice, leading out for a slightly larger 11,200. Huang looked pained by his decision but elected to let it go and the pot was shipped Loo’s way.

Lövgren Loses One
Nível 11
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
"Good luck," a player said as the player under the gun pushed all in for 13,300.
"I don't need luck," he said, laughing.
Action folded all the way around to Sofia Lövgren in the big blind and she called.
Lövgren: 
Opponent: 
The board came 
and Lövgren paid the double-up.
"See? I don't need luck. Just wait for ten-high and shove."
