Chris "Big Huni" Hunichen raised the button to 308,000 and was called by both opponents who then also check-called the {j-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop for 504,000. On the {a-Hearts} turn, only Ludovic "ludovi333" Geilich check-called 1,386,000 and check-called a shove on the {j-Clubs} river with {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for trips jacks.

Hunichen was caught bluffing with the {5-Spades}{4-Spades} and dropped to a short stack.

Geilich then bet the {10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} turn for 846,875 out of the small blind and initial button raiser Ole "wizowizo" Schemion called. Geilich also bet the {q-Hearts} river for 1,465,875, which Schemion called and mucked as he was shown the {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} by Geilich.

Schemion Jams Into the Lead

Level 27 : 70,000/140,000, 17,500 ante

The first half a dozen hands in heads-up play saw both players trade chips back and forth with a slight advantage for Ludovic "ludovi333" Geilich. However, that all changed in the last hand before the scheduled five-minute break.

Geilich raised the button to 318,675 and Ole "wizowizo" Schemion three-bet to 1,333,336 in the big blind, which was called by Geilich.

Schemion continued right away for 648,401 on the {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{6-Clubs} flop and did so again for 1,960,000 on the {5-Hearts} turn. Another call by Geilich followed and Schemion's shove for just shy of 5.9 million on the {7-Spades} river secured the pot without showdown.
