Muskan Sethi Eliminated

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

It has been a long, slow day for Muskan Sethi, who seemed to struggle to catch any cards today. Her stack had dwindled down to 47,000, and all her chips were in the middle. Chris Cornell called to put her tournament life at risk.

Muskan Sethi: {a-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Chris Cornell: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}

The board ran out {5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{2-Spades}, and that was the end of the road for Sethi.

John Esposito Doubles Up, Gunning For Kabrhel

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

There was an open to 16,000 from the player in the hijack, and John Esposito, in the small blind, three-bet to 44,000. Andrei Konopelko was in the big blind, and he called with the original raiser deciding to fold.

It was heads-up to a flop of {9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}. Esposito bet, then called a shove from Konopelko.

Andrei Konopelko: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}
John Esposito: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

The turn was the {7-Clubs} and the river the {4-Diamonds}. A jubilant Esposito got his double-up after dwindling a little bit for the last few levels. He declared he was now ready to take on Martin Kabrhel as soon as they could be reunited.

With another table due to break soon, that could be in the cards tonight.

Peter Coulombe Takes a Big Pot From Martin Kabrhel

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel opened from the cutoff and got a call from the player in the small blind before Peter Coulombe three-bet to 55,000 from the big blind. Kabrhel called, and the small blind folded.

“What is your name?” Kabrhel wanted to know. “Mine is Martin.”

“After the hand,” Coulombe insisted.

The flop was {6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}, and Coulombe check-called a bet of 75,000 from Kabrhel. The turn was the {a-Clubs}, and a check from Coulombe saw another bet from Kabrhel — this time for 168,000. Again, Coulombe called. The river was the {3-Hearts}, and Coulombe checked for the last time. Some messing about with his remaining stack by Kabrhel took up a short time, but he thought better of it and checked behind.

Coulombe showed {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}, and Kabrhel mucked.

“So, what’s your name?” Kabrhel asked again.

“Pete,” replied Coulombe.

“Ah, Peter. If I’d have known that, I wouldn’t have tried to bluff you. Very clever.”

Some Cautions Play Late in the Day

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Apart from a double-up for Artur Rudziankov in the last half hour, no player has seemed to want tp put their stack at risk. Maybe it is the fact that the redraw is approaching as the day draws to an end, or it could just be a lull in good cards. Time will tell.
