Boulton Spikes River to Double Through Liperis

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

Joshua Boulton open-shoved a stack of around 80,000 from the cutoff and Yiannis Liperis called from the button to get the hand heads-up .

Yiannis Liperis: {q-Spades}{7-Spades}
Joshua Boulton: {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

Liperis didn't get any help from the {9-Spades}{k-Hearts}{k-Clubs} flop or {4-Diamonds} turn, but the {7-Diamonds} then peeled off on the river to give him a pair of sevens to stay alive.

Desai Eliminated With Aces

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Anthony Desai
Anthony Desai

Anthony Desai was all in preflop and in great shape against David Docherty as the hands were turned up.

Anthony Desai: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}
David Docherty: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Desai's pocket aces had Docherty dominated after the {j-Spades}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop, but the {10-Spades} turn brought a flush draw.

The {6-Spades} river completed the flush for Docherty, bringing an end to Desai's tournament run.

Wakil Nearly Triples; Geilich Eliminated

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Jamil Wakil
Jamil Wakil

Ludovic Geilich was all-in for 143,000 from under the gun, Jamil Wakil was all-in for 164,000 in the hijack, and both players were at risk against Ole Schemion in the big blind.

Ludovic Geilich: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Jamil Wakil: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Ole Schemion: {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

The {k-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} flop put Wakil well in front and he locked up the pot on the {5-Hearts} turn, while the meaningless {q-Clubs} completed the board to confirm Wakil's near triple, and Geilich made his exit.

Docherty Correctly Calls River Overbet With Fourth Pair

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
David Docherty

In a heads-up battle between the blinds, Harry Lodge led out for 8,000 on the flop of {5-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} and David Docherty called.

The turn brought the {a-Hearts} and Lodge put out an overbet of 38,000 with slightly less than that in the pot. Docherty again called.

The {6-Clubs} on the river completed the board and Lodge put out yet another overbet for 145,000, which sent Docherty deep into the tank. After using through three time extensions, Docherty made the call.

Lodge sheepishly turned over a stone bluff with {9-Clubs}{4-Hearts} for nine-high, leading Docherty to turn over {6-Hearts}{4-Spades} for a rivered bottom pair after missing his straight draw.

Romero at Risk, Flops Quads to Double

Level 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Jordi Romero
Jordi Romero

Yiannis Liperis opened to 12,000 and Jordi Romero reraised from the next seat to 98,000 and was all in.

Liperis thought for a second and made the call and the players tabled their cards with Romero at risk.

Jordi Romero: {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}
Yiannis Liperis: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Romero let out a loud tap on the table when the flop came {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}{3-Hearts}, flopping quad nines and securing his full double up. The {5-Hearts}{3-Spades} completed the board but had no impact as Romero stacked his new found wealth.
