Wakil Gives Up on the River

Level 20 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Jamil Wakil raised to 80,000 on the button and Rodrigo Seiji defended from the big blind. The flop came {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{q-Clubs} and Seiji check-called a bet of 45,000 from Wakil.

The {8-Hearts} landed on the turn and Seiji checked again. Wakil fired out another bet of 115,000 and Seiji still called. The {k-Diamonds} completed the board and both players checked. Seiji turned over {a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} for two pair and Wakil mucked his cards.

Nouira Brags About Chip Lead; Becomes Shortest Stack

Level 20 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Maher Nouira
Maher Nouira

Only a few minutes ago, Maher Nouira was the chip leader and has suddenly become the shortest stack.

He opened to 80,000 and Jorryt van Hoof three-bet to 320,000 in the big blind. While studying the other stacks, Nouira asked "am I the chip leader?" Jamil Wakil shook his head, then replied "no ... well, maybe after this hand." Nouira then called and the flop came {10-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. Van Hoof bet 320,000 and Nouira snap-folded.

The next hand saw Nouira with the same open raise and Rodrigo Seiji called in the big blind. Following the {q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop, Seiji check-jammed for 650,000 and Nouira called following his continuation bet of 70,000.

Rodrigo Seiji: {q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}
Maher Nouira: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The top pair of Seiji held after the {3-Clubs} turn and {8-Hearts} as he then added "you shouldn't brag about the chip lead" with a very dry voice and smile on the face. Nouira chuckled as he suddenly dropped to the shortest stack among the final four.

Chips Continue to Fly

Level 20 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Maher Nouira raised it up from the cutoff and Jorryt van Hoof ripped all in for 820,000 from the big blind. Nouira instantly called and both players turned over premium starting hands.

Jorryt van Hoof: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Maher Nouira: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

It was van Hoof who found himself in a great position to double up with pocket kings. The board ran out {9-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{4-Spades}{q-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and Nouira passed over a good portion of his stack.

Mark Hammond Eliminated in 5th Place (€26,210)

Level 20 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Mark Hammond
Mark Hammond

Maher Nouira raised to 80,000 on the button and Mark Hammond then pushed all-in out of the big blind. The initial raiser asked for a count and then sighed. "Some 25 blinds? Oh well, fuck it," Nouira said and made the call with the superior stack.

Mark Hammond: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Maher Nouira: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}

The {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop gave Nouira the lead but Hammond had the flush draw at his disposal. Neither the {9-Spades} turn nor the {k-Hearts} river provided any help and Hammond was ousted in fifth place for a cash prize worth €26,210.

Right after the hand was over, a "community event" took place as previously agreed upon. Jorryt van Hoof drew a Mystery Bounty worth €25,000 while Jamil Wakil flashed a €10,000 envelope. Hammond now revealed his final two bounties and they were worth €10,000 and €7,500 respectively.

That brings the bounty portion of Hammond up to €32,500 and the field is down to the final four contenders.

Conor Beresford Eliminated in 6th Place (€20,130)

Level 20 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Conor Beresford
Conor Beresford

Conor Beresford ripped all in for his last 360,000 from under the gun and Mark Hammond re-shoved all in for 675,000 on his left. Jamil Wakil was in the big blind and used three of his time banks before finally folding his hand.

Conor Beresford: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Mark Hammond: {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}

Beresford was in a near-flip situation but the flop of {q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{3-Clubs} left Hammond in the lead with a pair of nines. The {6-Diamonds} on the turn and the {2-Spades} on the river bricked out as Beresford was eliminated in sixth place.

Nouira Doubles Through Beresford

Level 19 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Maher Nouira raised to 60,000 and Conor Beresford three-bet big out of the blinds by splashing in his T-100,000 chips. The initial raiser Nouira snap-called all-in and the cards were flipped over.

Maher Nouira: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Conor Beresford: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

Nouira had his opponent pipped by a notch and locked up the double until the {q-Spades}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} turn, which made the {7-Spades} river bitter sweet. Nouira's double was for 665,000 and that left Beresford as the shortest stack among the final six.

Wakil Turns a Pair

Level 19 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Jamil Wakil opened to 60,000 from under the gun and was called by Conor Beresford on his left and Jorryt van Hoof on the button. The flop came {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and Wakil continued with a bet of 75,000. Beresford called and van Hoof got out of the way.

The turn brought the {j-Spades} and Wakil checked this time. Beresford tossed in a bet of 135,000 and Wakil stuck around to see the {5-Hearts} on the river. Both players knuckled the table this time and Wakil tabled {j-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} to rake in the pot.

Van Hoof Wins a Small Pot

Level 19 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Conor Beresford opened to 60,000 and Jorryt van Hoof as the single big blind came along. On a {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} flop, the Dutchman check-called a min-bet worth 30,000. Both checked the {3-Hearts} turn and van Hoof's bet of 75,000 on the {2-Spades} river earned the pot without any further resistance.

Jamil Wakil raised to 60,000 in the cutoff and Steve O'Dwyer pushed all-in out of the big blind. The initial raiser asked for a count and eventually called within the allocated 30-second shot clock when the all-in was deemed to be for 770,000 total.

Steve O'Dwyer: {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Jamil Wakil: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

The superior kicker remained ahead throughout the {7-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} board and that spelled the end for O'Dwyer. He collected €15,500 in cash prizes and four Mystery Bounties worth another €117,500.
