Nível 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Heads-up on a flop of 9♦7♥5♥, Wooram Cho bet 5,000 from the hijack before Marc Palatzky raised to 14,000 in the cutoff.

Cho called and both players checked the 7♣ turn. The river came the 8♦ and Cho led out for 25,000.

Palatzky then slid forward a tower of blue 5,000 chips, enough to put Cho all in for his last 30,000, and Cho quickly mucked as Palatzky moved up past 300,000 with that pot.

At an adjacent table, Patrik Jaros has also built a stack of around 140,000 on his second bullet.

Vadim Kim repotted to 7,200 preflop for Daniel Smuskovics to call and they headed to the 7♦5♠2♣ flop. Once Kim bet the pot for a big portion of his stack. Smuskovics moved all-in and Kim sigh-called after plenty of consideration.

Vadim Kim: A♥Q♣J♥10♣
Daniel Smuskovics: J♣10♠7♠5♣

Smuskovics' two pair were way out in front, yet he had to settle for a chop on the 8♥ turn and 9♠ river runout to stay flabbergasted.

Soon after their previous encounter, Bruno Stefanelli and Roland Israelashvili built a pot of around 30,000 on a completed board of 4♠K♠9♠6♣2♠.

Israelashvili, in the big blind, then led out for 20,000 as Stefanelli went into the tank from middle position. He eventually called and Israelashvili instantly mucked his hand, allowing Stefanelli to collect the pot without a showdown.

Nível 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Five ways to a flop of A♦8♦8♣, Michael Rodrigues bet 2,500 on the button. He earned several folds and Shawn Stroke was the only caller.

Both players checked the 3♠ turn on which Rodrigues waved to see the stack of his opponent.

Rodrigues also checked behind the J♥ river and Stroke announced a jack, flashing the J♦10♠ only. Rodrigues had that beat with the K♦K♣Q♣3♦ for kings up and Stroke mucked, dropping to an even shorter stack.

Nível 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Four ways to the 10♠4♦3♣K♣2♥ river, the action checked to Bruno Stefanelli on the button and he bet 15,000. Marc Palatzky folded out of the big blind whereas Roland Israelashvili reluctantly called from the under-the-gun position.

Stefanelli rolled over the A♦6♣5♣3♥ for the nuts and Israelashvili mucked.

Palatzky appears to be the current chip leader in the field with more than five and a half times the starting stack.

Nível 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Barny Boatman has been on a tear so far on Day 1, and his latest victims were Aleksandar Stefanovic and Hok Yiu Lee.

On a flop of 9♦4♥Q♥, Stefanovic moved all in for 17,000, Lee got his last 30,000 in the middle from early position, and Boatman had them both at risk in the small blind.

Aleksandar Stefanovic: A♦K♠Q♦8♦
Hok Yiu Lee: K♥K♦J♣9♥
Barny Boatman: A♥5♠4♣4♠

Stefanovic had top pair, Lee had a pair of kings, but both were behind Boatman's set of fours. The 9♣ turn gave Boatman a full house, and neither Stefanovic or Lee could improve on the Q♣ river as Boatman busted both players.

Nível 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Pierre Erbland, already on his third bullet of the day, built a pot of around 50,000 with Andreas Tomazou as they went heads-up to the turn on a board of 8♥4♣Q♥4♦.

Erbland then moved all in for 20,000 in middle position and Tomazou called on the button. Erbland had A♥7♥6♦3♦ for a straight draw, while Tomazou showed K♣K♦8♣3♠.

The river came the Q♠ and Erbland missed his draw, heading to the rail for the third time.

Heads-up to the 8♥7♥4♠4♥ turn, Eran Carmi check-raised from 4,000 to 9,000 and Levan Rcheulishvili called in the cutoff. The 6♣ fell on the river and Carmi moved all-in with his short stack.

Rcheulishvili called and Carmi already gathered his belongings as he rolled over the K♣J♣8♠7♣. That was no good as Rcheulishvili held A♣A♦A♥10♥ for the ace-high flush.

Anson Tsang three-bet the pot and Dorel Eldabach came along as they headed to the Q♣7♣6♥ flop. Tsang bet 5,000 and Eldabach moved all-in to get a quick call by his opponent.

Anson Tsang: A♥A♦Q♦Q♠
Dorel Eldabach: Q♥10♥9♥7♠

"Woah, what is that shit?" Eldabach grinned when he saw his top two pair and gutshot crushed.

Tsang was rooting for an eight that would give Eldabach a straight but held on for the double on the 5♦ turn and 7♦ river.
