Seven on the River Prevents Sitbon from Double Knockout

Tyler Foran

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Julien Sitbon raised 5,000 in early position, and two players made the call before Ivan Abramchuk shoved in the small blind. Rony Halimi pushed his remaining stack across the line from the big blind, putting the action back on Sitbon. He asked for a count on both, and after hearing Abramchuk had 22,500, and Halimi 17,000, he announced all-in as well, forcing both players behind to fold.

Rony Halimi: K♣10♣
Ivan Abramchuk: 7♥7♣
Julien Sitbon: 10♥10♠

The A♠9♠3♣ flop missed all three players, with Sitbon still having the lead. The 6♥ hit the turn changing nothing, but the 7♠ landed on the river, sending the pot to Abramchuk.

Player	Chips	Progress
Ivan Abramchuk	74,500 68,000	68,000
Julien Sitbon	34,500 -11,500	-11,500

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Luca Moschitta had gotten his 41,500 in the middle before the flop against Antonio Rutigliano and both players hands were on their backs.

Luca Moschitta: Q♠J♠
Antonio Rutigliano: K♠K♦

The 9♥8♣7♠ flop gave Moshchitta a gutshot straight draw, and the 10♠ turn completed his straight to earn the checkmark. The 9♠ river was overkill as he improved to a flush to score the double.

Player	Chips	Progress
Luca Moschitta	90,500 31,500	31,500
Antonio Rutigliano	66,000

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Thomas Santerne raised to 6,000 from the hijack and Dan Laidlaw defended in the big blind.

Laidlaw checked at the sight of the 2♥3♣K♦ flop. Santerne continued for 4,500 and Laidlaw check-raised to 15,000. Santerne called.

The Q♠ turn saw Laidlaw size up to 22,000. Santerne called again.

The river landed the 8♥ and Laidlaw placed a bet of 65,000, leaving himself just 1,000 behind the line. Santerne remained in the tank for some time before finally making the call. Laidlaw tabled K♣Q♥ for two pair; good enough to win this pot.

Player	Chips	Progress
Dan Laidlaw	220,500 195,500	195,500
Thomas Santerne	115,000 115,000	115,000

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Soenke Jahn limped before Daisuke Ogita raised to 8,000 in the cutoff. The action folded back around to Jahn and he made the call.

When the A♣J♦10♠ flop hit the felt, Jahn check-called a bet of 9,000.

The 3♠ turn was checked through to see the 5♣ river. Jahn led for 19,500, putting Ogita in the tank. After about a minute, he dropped a chip across the line to make the call.

Jahn tabled 9♥8♥, missing his open-ended straight draw, and Ogita rolled over A♥4♠ for top pair.

Player	Chips	Progress
Daisuke Ogita	496,500 171,500	171,500

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Nazar Buhaiov raised to 11,000 from the hijack, Beat Schlegel three-bet to 26,000 on the button and Buhaiov clicked it back to 50,000. Schlegel called.

Buhaiov continued for 30,000 on the Q♦10♣5♣ flop. Schlegel called.

The 2♣ turn slowed down Buhaiov and Schlegel took the lead for 70,000, leaving himself just 75,000 behind the line. Buhaiov thought for some time before moving all in for 135,000 and Schlegel went deep into the tank, eventually making the call.

Nazar Buhaiov: A♣6♣
Beat Schlegel: A♦5♠

At the sight of the showdown, Schlegel knew he was drawing dead and had already erupted from his seat, leaving the tournament floor before the river was dealt.

The dealer peeled the 4♦ and the pot was to be awarded to Buhaiov, however, under closer inspection Schlegel was the bigger of two stacks and was still alive with 10,000 behind the line. His stack has now been left to blind out.

Player	Chips	Progress
Nazar Buhaiov	380,000 346,000	346,000
Beat Schlegel	10,000 -385,000	-385,000

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

The pot stood at approximately 150,000 with two players looking at a full board of 3♥9♦10♣4♣7♣.

Omar Del Pino, who was under the gun, placed a sizeable bet of 115,000, sending opponent Antonio Guerrero, in early position, into the tank.

Guerrero thought for several minutes before the clock was finally called, prompting him to make the call. Del Pino tabled A♣10♥ for top pair; good enough to ship him this massive pot and leave Guerrero short.

Omar Del Pino	480,000 87,000	87,000
Antonio Guerrero	42,000 2,000	2,000
