Vranken Doubles Through Di Giacomo

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Claudio Di Giacomo opened to 180,000 in early position and Antoine Vranken re-raised to 620,000 in the small blind, leaving himself with just 250,000 behind. Di Giacomo thought for a couple of minutes before making the call.

The flop came {7-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and Vranken shoved all in for his last 250,000. Di Giacomo called and turned over {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades} but was in tough against the {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{8-Hearts} of Vranken.

The {2-Hearts} on the turn gave Vranken a flush and Di Giacomo was left drawing dead to the {q-Clubs} on the river.

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Moncef Karoui raised to 175,000 from under the gun and Mikkel Plum shoved all in for 635,000 on the button. The blinds folded and Karoui quickly called to put Plum at risk.

Mikkel Plum: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Moncef Karoui: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Plum held a big advantage as he also had Karoui's suit covered. The board ran out {a-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and Plum held on for a double up with hardly any sweat at all.

No-Limit Hold'em

The action folded around to Mikkel Plum in the small blind who shoved all in for 420,000. Danny Covyn called from the big blind and the hands were tabled.

Mikkel Plum: {k-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Danny Covyn: {a-Spades}{8-Clubs}

Despite being in a dominated position, Plum flopped the best hand on the {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{7-Spades} flop. The {5-Hearts} on the turn and the {3-Hearts} on the river gave Plum a double up and left Covyn with just 30,000 chips.

On the next hand, Covyn was forced all in from the small blind and was dealt {j-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. He was up against the [{k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} of Carter Newhof and Covyn was unable to connect with the board as he was eliminated in 10th place.

Koleno Dodges Everything to Double Up

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

The action folded to Stanislav Koleno in the small blind who just limped in. Carter Newhof raised the pot to 150,000 in the big blind and Koleno called. The flop came {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and the two players quickly got all of their chips in the middle with Koleno at risk for 360,000.

Stanislav Koleno: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs}
Carter Newhof: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

Koleno was ahead with a set of nines but Newhof had plenty of outs with two over pairs and a flush draw. He also picked up a straight draw on the {q-Clubs} turn card but the {a-Spades} on the river only improved Koleno to a full house.
