Bohmerwald Departs Early On; Stafman Chips Up

Christian Zetzsche

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Michael Bohmerwald was spotted on his way out and another player remarked "unlucky" while the pot was pushed to Ryan Casaly. On a board of Q♣J♠5♥J♣A♥, Casaly had hit what appeared to be a full house with the QxJx.

Johan Espholm lost a seven-figure pot to Tyler Stafman when he checked behind the K♥7♣2♠A♦ turn and K♠ river, as Stafman tabled the A♠K♣.

"Would you have called a bet?" Stafman inquired and Espholm replied "depends how much you bet".

One table over, Larry Ross doubled with A♥6♣ against the A♣5♣ of Tam Ho as his kicker advantage played on the K♦9♦2♥7♦3♥ runout.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Carlos Leiva opened to 55,000 from middle position before Jason Koon made it 120,000 from the button. Tim van Loo went into the tank from the big blind before folding. Leiva put Koon all in and the latter called off his stack of 530,000.

Jason Koon: K♣K♠
Carlos Leiva: 10♣10♦

Koon was way ahead and improved to a set on the A♦K♦Q♠ flop, leaving his opponent drawing to Broadway or runner-runner quads.

The 8♠ turn was a brick, but the J♥ river completed Leiva's straight and Koon's Main Event journey came to an end.

Thomas Zanot opened to 60,000 from the cutoff before Hang Xu moved all in for around 550,000 from the small blind. Chris Brewer, who was narrowly covered by Xu, called for his tournament life from the big blind before Zanot folded.

Chris Brewer: J♦J♣
Hang Xu: AxK♦

Xu paired up on the K♥10♠9♣ flop to take the lead and held out to seal the pot and bust out following the 2♦ turn and 5♦ river.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Dirk Perdrix moved all in for approximately 450,000 from early position and was called by Christopher Vitch from the big blind who had a covering stack.

Dirk Perdrix: A♠Q♦
Christopher Vitch: A♦A♥

Perdrix was drawing dead by the turn when the board ran out 2♦2♥8♠7♥4♥ and Vitch collected a nice pot while sending his opponent to the rail.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Over on the right hand feature table, Minh Lieu was all-in for a mere 180,000 with the K♣J♥.

He was up against the A♥K♠ of Richard Seymour in an early position and his fate was sealed on the turn of a 6♦6♠4♦A♠3♦ runout.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Daniel Wolf started the action with a raise to 50,000 from early position. Bernard Muhire then reraised to 125,000 from middle position before Perati Muhamet four-bet jammed for 375,000 from the big blind.

Wolf rejammed with a five-bet and Muhire let it go for the other two players to show down.

Perati Muhamet: A♠A♣
Daniel Wolf: Q♠Q♦

It was looking good for Muhamet on 7♠9♥6♠8♣, but the Q♣ river saw Wolf hit his set. Muhamet's aces were cracked and he left the tournament area disillusioned, as have many other players so far on Day 5.

Player	Chips	Progress
Daniel Wolf	1,500,000 620,000	620,000

Adam Lamers

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Tamas Lendvai had a large percentage of his chips in the middle, with roughly only 150,000 sitting behind. Dario Delpiano shoved all in on his left and Lendvai went into the tank, trying to get a pay jump. After a minute had passed, the clock was called and Lendvai eventually stuck in what was left.

Tamas Lendvai: Q♠Q♥
Dario Delpiano: A♥K♥

The flop came K♣7♠3♠ and Delpiano took the lead with a pair of kings in the classic coin flip. The J♣ and 10♦ was not going to save Lendvai who headed to the payout desk.

Moneymaker Eliminated by Brown

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Down to the last 345,000, Chris Moneymaker pushed all-in from the hijack and was looked up by Ryan Brown from one seat over on the feature tables while all players behind got out of the way.

Chris Moneymaker: 5♦5♥
Ryan Brown: K♣K♥

The 9♣7♥3♣ flop gave Moneymaker some equity with potential running outs to a straight. However, that hope instantly vanished on the K♦ turn to make the 3♠ river a formality.

David Vedral opened to 50,000 from the hijack before Gabi Livshitz three-bet to 145,000 from the button. Vedral jammed for 710,000 and Livshitz quickly called to put his opponent at risk.

David Vedral: A♠Q♠
Gabi Livshitz: A♦K♣

There would be no rotation of the domination and Vedral hit the rail following the 7♣4♥2♣8♣10♥ runout.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Edward Bergman raised preflop from middle position before Anirban Das, who had known a good start to his day, three-bet to 160,000 from the button.

The blinds folded before Bergman announced his all-in for around 1,000,000 chips and Das made the call.

Edward Bergman: A♦9♦
Anirban Das: 10♥10♣

Bergman flopped a sweat on K♦Q♠2♦ with a draw to a flush, but the 10♠ turn diminished his outs, giving Das a set.

The river paired Bergman with the A♥, but it was no good and he exited the tournament.

Meanwhile, Das is playing a stack of over five million chips.

Player	Chips	Progress
Anirban Das	5,175,000 2,295,000	2,295,000
Chance Kornuth	3,350,000 -50,000	-50,000
