Small Pot for Therme

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Timothy Lee was spotted on his way to the payout desk to become the first casualty of the level.

Moments later, Jonathan Therme raised from under the gun one table over and earned a call by Masato Yokosawa in the big blind. The 882 flop was checked by Yokosawa and he called a first barrel for 80,000.

Both headed to the 6 turn on which Yokosawa checked again. Therme bet 300,000 and that won the pot right there.

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Quang Vu raised to 125,000 in middle position and Pier Papadia called from the big blind. The flop came AQ5 and Papadia check-called a bet of 150,000 from Vu.

The 5 paired the board on the turn and Papadia checked again. Vu tossed in a bet of 350,000 and Papadia stuck around for the 8 on the river. Papadia checked for the third time and Vu thought for a minute before checking it back. Papadia tabled A8 for two pair and Vu couldn't beat it.

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Thomas Gabriel open-raised from the button and Mikael Berrio went all-in for 235,000, just under four big blinds. The big blind got out of the way and Gabriel put in the extra few chips.

Mikael Berrio: A6
Thomas Gabriel: K6

Berrio had the dominating six, and he would end up being the only one with two pair when the board ran out 6247A, resulting in a double-up for the Frenchman.

Thomas Gabriel moved all in for 710,000 from middle position and Mark Teltscher called in the cutoff.

Thomas Gabriel: A8
Mark Teltscher: KK

Teltscher had woken up with kings and left Gabriel drawing to running cards on the K56 flop with top set. The 9 turn gave Gabriel some hope with a straight draw, but the 3 river was no harm to Teltscher who sent Gabriel to the payout desk.

Michael Farris opened to 140,000 from the cutoff and received a call from Eric Schneider in the big blind.

The flop came A74. Schneider checked, Farris put in a continuation bet of 150,000 and Schneider check-raised to 425,000. Farris made the call.

On the 2 turn Schneider bet 425,000 and this time it was enough to force a fold from his opponent.

Kitai Gets Short and Busts

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Davidi Kitai raised to 225,000 in middle position, leaving himself with just under 300,000 behind. Joe Ghio just called from the big blind and they saw a flop of A95. Ghio checked to Kitai who splashed in his last few chips before Ghio snapped him off.

Davidi Kitai: J10
Joe Ghio: A7

Ghio flopped a pair of aces which left Kitai drawing extremely slim. The K on the turn gave him a straight draw but the 9 bricked out on the river and Kitai exited the room.
