Jouhkimainen Eliminates Vaskaboinikau

Level 5 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

After a couple of preflop raises, Joni Jouhkimainen and Mikalai Vaskaboinikau got all of their chips in the middle with very similar stack. Vaskaboinikau was the player at risk for 68,000 while Jouhkimainen had him covered by one 500 chip.

Joni Jouhkimainen: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

Jouhkimainen had a dominating advantage and the flop of {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} put him even further ahead. The {q-Diamonds} on the turn gave Vaskaboinikau some hope but the {6-Spades} on the river sent him to the rail.

Pollak Gets Cheeky

Level 5 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Benjamin Pollak
Benjamin Pollak

Benjamin Pollak raised it up on the button and Vicent Bosca defended from the big blind. The flop fell {9-Clubs}{7-Spades}{6-Clubs} and both players checked to the {6-Diamonds} on the turn.

Bosca led out for 15,000 and Pollak stuck around to see the {q-Diamonds} on the river. Bosca fired out another 36,000 and Pollak shoved all in for 85,500. Bosca quickly called and Pollak turned over {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a full house while Bosca had {8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for a straight.

"Did that go check-check on the flop?" Charlie Carrel asked. Pollak responded by rubbing his nose with a smile. "Cheeky!" Carrel followed up.
