Schemion Chipping Up

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Ole Schemion
Ole Schemion

Dmitry Yurasov raised to 18,000 and he was again called by Ole Schemion.

The flop came down {A-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{A-Hearts} and Schemion called another bet. This time, for the amount of 15,000. The {3-Spades} hit the turn and now Yurasov checked.

Schemion bet 50,000 and Yurasov stuck around to see the {K-Spades} river.

Yurasov checked again and Schemion slid out a 106,000-bet. Yurasov thought about it for three minutes but then folded his hand.

Bojang Loses Three in a Row

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Hand 1

Ismael Bojang raised to 18,000 and Frederik Jensen defended his big blind. On the {4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop, Jensen check-called a bet worth 23,000 and checked again the {J-Hearts} turn. Bojang checked behind and the duo also checked the {10-Spades} river. Jensen claimed the pot with {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}.

Hand 2

Bojang made it 18,000 to go from the cutoff and Elie Saad called in the big blind. On the {10-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop, Saad checked and Bojang bet 25,000, Saad called. The {5-Hearts} turn and {A-Diamonds} river went check, check and Saad won the hand with {A-Spades}{5-Diamonds} for two pair.

Hand 3

Bojang opened to 18,000 in the hijack. Jensen three-bet to 60,000 on the button and that shut down all further action.

Schemion Four-Bets

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

The last Maltese standing, Konrad Abela raised to 18,000. From the cutoff, Dmitry Yurasov made a reraise to 48,000.

It was over to Ole Schemion on the button. The German high-roller made a four-bet to 108,000 and Abela asked for a count.

He then folded, but Yurasov called.

The flop was {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and Yurasov checked to Schemion. He bet 85,000 and Yurasov let it go.

Yurasov Take One From Schemion

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

It was a blind-on-blind confrontation between Dmitry Yurasov and Ole Schemion.

From the small blind, Yurasov made a raise to 24,000 and Schemion called.

Yurasov then bet 15,000 on the {7-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{J-Hearts} flop only to see Schemion raise it up to 45,000. Yurasov called and the {9-Diamonds} fell on the turn.

The river brought the {4-Spades}. Both checked and Yurasov tabled {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for the winner.

Jensen Slipping

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

The last four tables haven't provided much action yet. Frederik Jensen tried to bluff table neighbor Elie Saad off top pair on a king-high board and was caught to drop some. Then, Jensen raised from the cutoff to 18,000 and Dong Zhao called in the big blind.

On the {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{4-Spades} flop, both players checked. On the {8-Clubs} turn, Zhao bet 22,000 and Jensen folded.

Popovic Eliminated by Diaz

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

From first position, Guillaume Diaz raised it up to 20,000. It was folded to short stack Marko Popovic.

From the button, he moved all in for 90,000 and Diaz made the call.

Marko Popovic: {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
Guillaume Diaz: {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}

Popovic was way behind and needed a five to survive. The {10-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{9-Clubs} flop made it even worse as Diaz got a straight draw to go with his jacks.

The turn was the {3-Clubs} and gave Popovic some hope as he now had the clubs as outs as well.

The {9-Spades} river wasn't one of the cards he wanted to see and he was on his way to the payout desk.

Double Seat Open - Szabo and Ortynskiy Eliminated

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Viatcheslav Ortynskiy
Viatcheslav Ortynskiy

Bastian Dohler raised to 20,000 and Zoltan Szabo shoved his short stack for 76,000 on the button. Viatcheslav Ortynskiy, who had just arrived at the table and won a bracelet at the 2016 WSOP this summer, just cold-called. Dohler then announced all in and Ortysnkiy snap-called.

Zoltan Szabo: {A-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Viatcheslav Ortynskiy: {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}
Bastian Dohler: {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}

The board ran out {J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and the stacks were counted, Dohler had 246,000 and the Russian less to also join the rail.

Altman Finds Ten to Bust Scholten

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Freek Scholten is both out of luck and out of chips. Preflop he got his remaining 104,000 in good with {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs} against Brian Altman's {10-Spades}{J-Spades}, but a ten on the flop crushed his dreams of making it through to Day 4.

The board ran out {5-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{6-Clubs}{K-Hearts}, and Scholten ends as number 36 - good enough for €12,390. Brian Altman is alive and kicking.

Lentrodt Sent Packing by Fellow German Schemion

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Ole Schemion
Ole Schemion

Ole Schemion just flopped two pair to knock out countryman Thomas Lentrodt.

Schemion opened to 17,000, and both Lentrodt at the button and Dan Shak in the small blind decided to tag along. The dealer fanned an action-flop of {J-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{A-Clubs} and Schemion followed up with a bet of 39,000, which prompted a shove of 128,000 from Lentrodt. Shak got out of the way and Schemion committed the extra chips.

Schemion's {Q-Hearts}{J-Spades} was out in front against Lentrodt's {A-Spades}{5-Spades}, and neither turn {9-Clubs} nor river {J-Hearts} changed that. Instead Schemion improved to a full house, more than enough to secure the pot.

Panka Three-Bets Yurasov

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Chip leader Dmitry Yurasov is raising most of the hands at the feature table. Most of his raises get through, but Dominik Panka just halted him from stealing all the blinds and antes.

From early position, Yurasov made a raise to 18,000. On the cutoff, Panka threw in a three-bet to 54,000. It was folded back to Yurasov who folded as well.

Panka is one of the three former EPT champions, alongside Frederik Jensen and Davidi Kitai.

On the next hand, Yurasov did raise again and this time he won the blinds and antes.
