Bifarella Out with Queens

Laura Fryer

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

Diogo Coelho raised from under the gun with A♠A♦ and Samuel Bifarella's three-bet to 335,000 with Q♠Q♦ from the cutoff. Coelho four-bet to 665,000 and Bifarella five-bet to 1,635,000. Coelho raised all in and Bifarella called for his entire stack.

The A♣J♠4♣ brought an Ace for Coelho and Bifarella needed a runner-runner to save him.

The turn came the 10♠ which gave Bifarella a straight draw but the 8♠ didn't bring in the king out to save him.

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

Aneris Adomkevicius opened to 120,000 from a middle position with J♦J♣. Stephen Song three-bet to 375,000 having picked up A♥A♦ in the small blind.

The flop came 7♦5♣10♥ and Song bet to 375,000, which Adomkevicius called.

The 4♠ came on the turn and Song, still ahead, opted to check. Adomkevicius bet 275,000 which was met with a raise from Song to 675,000. Adomkevicius took some time but found a call, taking the players to the river.

The 7♥ completed the board and the action was on Song. He raised to 1,200,000, putting Adomkevicius all in. After a long tank, the clock was called and Adomkevicius was given 30 seconds to act before his cards were automatically mucked.

Adomkevicius eventually made the call with just seconds left on the clock. Song showed his aces, which eliminated Adomkevicius from main event just 10-minutes before the end of Day 5.

Alex Greenblatt: 6♦6♠

Lendel was flipping for his tournament life but whiffed the flop of 8♣3♣Q♥. No help arrived on the J♣ turn and the 6♥ river improved Greenblatt to a set, which meant Lendel was eliminated.

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

The cards were already on their backs when Daniel Wendorf in the big blind was all-in against Guillermo Sanchez Otero in an early position.

Both had connected with the K♥J♠2♦ flop as Wendorf held the J♥7♥ for second pair and Sanchez Otero was ahead with the A♥K♠.

The 8♥ turn gave Wendorf a sweat with the additional flush draw but the 8♦ river provided no help to the Austrian.

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

Ren Lin opened to 120,000 from under the gun and was called by Cameron Mixson in middle position. Yake Wu then three-bet to 480,000 one seat over only to see Taras Sopotnytskyi cold four-bet jam for around 1,400,000. Lin and Mixson got out of the way but Wu made the call with the covering stack to put Sopotnytskyi at risk.

Taras Sopotnytskyi: Q♣Q♠ All in
Yake Wu: K♣K♦

Wu had found kings at an opportune moment to put himself in excellent position to score the knockout. The board ran out 2♣2♦6♠A♠9♥ to keep the cowboys best, bringing Sopotnyskyi's tournament to an end.

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

Coming off the stream table, Jesse Lonis had seen his stack decimated to around 1.6 million after he folded to a shove and further plummeted on the leaderboard. He then took on Giovanni Zanette and four-bet jammed when Zanette made it 315,000 to go.

The latter instantly called with the K♠K♥ and the ace-queen of Lonis found no help on the 6♠4♠3♣9♠9♣ runout.

At almost the same time, Ian O'Hara also departed after he could not beat the Q♦7♣ of Kenneth Kim in the big blind with the latter rivering two pair on a Q♠8♠3♦9♣7♥ board.

Giovanni Zanette	7,800,000 5,180,000	5,180,000

Christian Zetzsche

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

The turn showed K♣Q♣Q♥7♥ and Saar Wilf bet 225,000 out of the big blind, which Yegor Moroz on the button called.

Wilf then led the 3♥ river for 200,000 and Moroz clicked it back to 600,000. After some consideration, Wilf made it 1,200,000 to go with around 450,000 behind. Only a few seconds later, Moroz pushed all-in and Wilf was stunned.

"Oh wow ... this is not happening. You got fuckin kings?" Wilf said as he leaned deep back into his chair. Around two minutes passed and Wilf then called all-in.

Moroz tabled the hand he had feared in K♥K♦ for kings full of queens and Wilf flashed the Q♠3♠ for queens full of treys to bust in the final level of the night.

At the same time one table over, Alexander Tkatschew knocked out Michael Jagroo when his A♦K♣ hit a four-card flush on the 7♣4♣2♦10♣2♣ runout.
