Hutter Eliminated by Kubaliak

zedmaster84

Nível 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Chino Rheem had recovered previous losses when he came up second-best with 10♠10♥ against the A♥K♥ of Kelvin Kerber.

The same table included several other big names and Matas Cimbolas was trying to figure out the name of an opponent in the five seat. "My name is Igor. Igor Igor," the answer came.

Only one of those statements was true, as it happened to be Igor Picone from Belgium.

Picone called the shove of Barry Hutter for 28,000 and then saw Tomas Kubaliak move all-in over the top, forcing out Picone.

Barry Hutter: A♦Q♥
Tomas Kubaliak: K♣K♠

The 9♥7♦3♣7♥8♠ board brought no help to Hutter and ended his run on Day 1a.

Lu Brings the Pain to Spain

zedmaster84

Nível 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Taiwan's Wei-Hsun Lu raised to 12,000 and Gonzalo Ranero three-bet jammed for 99,000 in the hijack. Fellow Spaniard Jon Santos then pushed all-in for 149,000 and Lu asked for a count on the larger stack. He then called half a minute later and they pushed them over.

Gonzalo Ranero: 9♠9♣
Jon Santos: A♥K♦
Wei-Hsun Lu: Q♥Q♣

The 8♦8♥5♦ flop and 6♦ turn kept Ranero and Santos with some equity. However, the 5♣ river kept Lu ahead and he sent both players from Spain to the rail.

End of the Road for Song

zedmaster84

Nível 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Erick Lindgren hit the nut flush with A♣10♣ on a board of 10♦8♣5♣2♣6♠ and earned a full double through Stephen Song, who briefly exposed his cards.

Song was left with fewer than the starting stack and got them in with the 9♥8♥ via open-shove.

Eduardo Bernal called in the cutoff with the Q♦Q♣ and dealt the final blow on a K♦9♦2♥4♣Q♠ board.

Livingston Cracks Rockets to Eliminate Hu

Nível 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

With two players seeing a board of K♥J♠7♦8♠ and roughly 50,000 already in the middle, David Hu was all in for approximately 50,000 and called by Alex Livingston who had a covering stack.

David Hu: A♠A♦
Alex Livingston: J♣J♦

Hu was in rough shape with an overpair, drawing to just two outs to pull ahead of Livingston's set of jacks. The 10♠ river was a brick and Hu was sent to the rail while Livingston collected the last of his chips.

Padilha Eliminated by Angelou-Konstas

zedmaster84

Nível 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Pedro Padilha had seen his stack drop back to what he started with but he found a premium hand out of the big blind to try and run it up again. His K♠K♥ were up against the A♣J♠ of Ioannis Angelou-Konstas but the A♥10♣5♠ flop brought bad news right away.

Padilha already vaulted out of his chair and gathered his belongings. There was no fortunate escape on the 3♥ turn or 6♣ river to knock out the Brazilian.

Double Knockout Vaults Zouari Into a Big Stack

zedmaster84

Nível 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Tomasz Gluszko and Benjamin Scrogins got their short stacks into the middle and Gluszko had the best of it, while Scrogins had a mountain to climb. They were up against Jeremie Zouari, who had the significantly bigger stack already.

Benjamin Scrogins: J♣10♣
Tomasz Gluszko: A♥A♠
Jeremie Zouari: A♦K♥

The Q♣10♠4♦ flop gave Scrogins and Zouari more equity, and the latter struck gold with the J♠ turn. Scrogins needed a jack or ten to survive, while Gluszko needed a king to chop with Zouari.

Neither came with the 3♣ river and Zouari confirmed a double knockout.

Luchi Knocks Out Jiang

Nível 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Andre Luchi opened to 8,000 from the cutoff and Sosia Jiang moved all in for her last 22,000 from the big blind. Luchi made the call with a covering stack to put Jiang at risk.

Sosia Jiang: A♦10♥
Andre Luchi: K♦10♣

Jiang was in excellent shape to secure a double up and remained ahead on the A♠Q♠4♦ flop. The 6♥ turn was also clean but the J♥ gave Luchi the straight and the pot while Jiang made her exit from the tournament area.

Nível 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Joao Manana opened to 6,000 from under the gun and received calls from Francis Poirier in early position and Maria Ho in middle position before Christopher Puetz moved all in for 38,500 from the hijack. Bryce Yockey then made it 80,000 from the big blind before Manana moved all in for roughly 135,000. Poirer and Ho got out of the way while Yockey made the call, covering both players.

Christopher Puetz: 8♠8♣
Joao Manana: Q♣Q♦
Bryce Yockey: A♠K♦

Yockey pulled ahead on the K♦3♣6♠ flop with top pair but Puetz took the lead after hitting a set on the 8♥ turn. The 2♥ river was a blank and Puetz secured a full triple up while Yockey took in a colossal side pot and Manana was sent to the rail.

Brown Eliminated by Kamran

zedmaster84

Nível 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Recent $25,000 PLO High Roller finalist Tyler Brown was all-in with a short stack and flipped over the 6♦6♥.

He was up against Assad Kamran, who took the flip holding the A♣K♥.

The J♠4♥2♥ flop and Q♠ turn kept Brown ahead but the A♦ river improved Kamran.

"No worries, I will be back," Brown said on his way out and will likely re-enter the competition in one of the remaining three flights at the Atlantis Casino & Resort.
