Madanzhiev Staying Active

Level 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Stoyan Madanzhiev has been very active as of late and just raised the button to 160,000, and Jelle Moene called from the big blind.

They went to a flop of Q9K where Moene checked, and Madanzhiev fired a continuation-bet of 100,000.

On the 6 turn, Moene checked it over to Madanzhiev, who then fired a bigger bet of 425,000. Moene quickly folded.

Steve O'Dwyer Eliminated in 9th Place ($92,400)

Level 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Steve O'Dwyer
Steve O'Dwyer

Steve O'Dwyer raised to 500,000 from middle position with roughly 150,000 behind. When it folded to Ryan Mandara on the button, he shoved for around 1,600,000. After the blinds folded, O'Dwyer called to put himself at risk.

Steve O'Dwyer: 66 All in
Ryan Mandara : 88

O'Dwyer's pair was dominated by Mandara, so he needed some help from the dealer to survive. The 7KQ flop gave O'Dwyer a flush draw, but the 5 turn and J river didn't give him any assistance, and he was the first player eliminated at the final table.

Stoyan Madanzhiev raised to 125,000 from the hijack and Daniel Myers defended out of the big blind.

Madanzhiev Wins a Big Flip

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Stoyan Madanzhiev

Sebastian Malec opened from middle position to 120,000 and Stoyan Madanzhiev shoved the cutoff for 1,340,000. Once the action got back to Malec, he called.

Stoyan Madanzhiev: 88 All in
Sebastian Malec: AQ

It was a classic flip for a pot worth around 45 big blinds, and it was Madanzhiev who kept his advantage on the 547 flop. The K turn gave Malec a flush draw, but the 8 river was safe for Madanzhiev as he improved to a set to double up.
