Chidiac Shows a Straight

Level 2 : 100/300, 0 ante

Dany Chidiac has already made a wheel in the first level and just now has revealed the low cards have worked to his advantage once again.

The flop was down {4-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Hearts} and four players checked before Chidiac bet 6,000.

There wasn't much hesitation from Chidiac's opponents, and they all quickly folded and allowed Chidiac to pick up the pot before he tabled {6-Spades}{2-Clubs} for the straight.

Chidiac and Soininen Get It All In

Level 1 : 100/200, 0 ante

The completed board was down {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{3-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, and Niko Soininen bet 2,500 from the small blind. Dany Chidiac raised to 11,000 from the big blind, and Jorryt van Hoof got out the way.

Soininen then three-bet to 25,000 and saw Chidiac move all in for his whole 45,000 stack, which Soininen snap-called.

"You have four-five?" said Chidiac after the tabled {5-Spades}{4-Spades}{a-Spades}{2-Hearts} for the straight.

Soininen tabled {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{k-Spades}{j-Spades} and also revealed he held a straight, which resulted in a very early all-in chop pot.

Structure Change

Level 1 : 100/200, 0 ante

The players have agreed to reduce the blind levels from 40-minutes to 30-minutes for the duration.

The tournament will also be played out as a one-day event rather than the scheduled two days, due to the €25,000 No-Limit Hold'em event that is also scheduled to take place tomorrow.
