Kim's Aces No Good Against Scheinberg

Level 9 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Brian Kim
Brian Kim

Brian Kim opened 40,000 in the cutoff and Isai Scheinberg defended the big blind.

The dealer fanned a flop of K86, and Scheinberg check-called a continuation bet of 35,000.

When the J hit the turn, Scheinberg checked and dropped a bet of 125,000 across the line. Scheinberg announced all-in, putting Kim to the test for his remaining 265,000. After a few seconds of thought, Kim made the call.

Brian Kim: AA All in
Isai Scheinberg: K8

Kim's aces had been out flopped by the two pair of Scheinberg and he was unable to improve as the dealer rolled the 5 on the river.

Thorel Leaves Zegal Light-Headed

Level 10 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Picking up the action on the turn, Jean-Noel Thorel and Stanislav Zegal were heads-up in a pot with around 200,000 in the middle. The board read 543A and Thorel checked it over to Zegal who bet 115,000. Thorel check-raised to 250,000 and Zegal called.

The river was the J and Thorel hesitated for a brief moment before announcing all in. Zegal was put to the test for his remaining 330,000 chips. After going in the tank for nearly three minutes, Zegal finally let it go and Thorel refused to show his cards.

Nakache Makes Straight Flush

Level 10 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Elie Nakache raised 50,000 in middle position, Mikhail Volfson called next to act, followed by Lucas Foster in the big blind.

When the 876 flop hit the felt, both players checked to Volfson who continued for 65,000. Foster wasted no time getting out of the way and Nakache made the call.

The 4 turn was checked through to see the 5 on the river. Nakache led for 200,000, putting Volfson in the tank for about 30 seconds before deciding to toss his cards into the muck. Nakache let him know it was a good fold as he tabled A9 for a straight flush.

Thorel Luminosity & Bonomo Generosity

Level 10 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel
Jean-Noel Thorel

In a three-way pot on a board of 8A2, Mario Mosbock bet and Jean-Noel Thorel raised to 125,000 to bring a fold from the player behind as Mosbock called.

Mosbock checked on the 6 turn and Thorel snap-bet 175,000 to bring a quick fold from the footballer.

After raking in the pot, Jean-Noel Thorel looked over to Justin Bonomo on his left, who has been helping the Frenchman distinguish his chip denominations throughout the tournament.

"I know the drill," Bonomo said with a smile.
