Josh Noy

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

Anthony Mahaut opened to 120,000 in the hijack and found calls from Sefora Pop in the cutoff and Maurice Nass on the button. Roland Israelashvili then defended his big blind to the K♥5♣4♥ flop.

All four players checked the action through to the 5♥ turn, where Pop was the first to bet. Only Israelashvili called the bet of 200,000 and the two players saw the Q♥ river.

Israelashvili checked to Pop, who announced all in. Israelashvili mucked his cards, as Pop's stack continued to grow.

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

Anthony Mahaut and Andrei Spataru had gathered 350,000 chips in the middle during a blind-on-blind encounter. The board was dealt up until the turn and read J♥9♣A♣4♦ when Mahaut put Spataru all-in for his final 300,000 chips.

Spataru sighed but called it off relatively quickly, putting himself at risk of becoming the final table bubble.

Andrei Spataru: J♦5♦
Anthony Mahaut: K♦K♣

The 2♦ river did not improve Spataru's lower pair, and he finished in tenth.

The remaining nine players converged on one final table while Spataru left to pick up his cash.

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

Traian Stanciu raised to 100,000 from under the gun and Duc Tuan Tran put in a three-bet to 300,000 from the button. Stanciu made the call once action got back on him, and the pair checked through the 10♦A♠8♦ flop.

Stanciu then made a bet of 175,000 on the 10♣ turn before Tran put in a raise to 450,000. Stanciu obliged with a call and the A♦ river double-paired the board.

The action went check-check again and Stanciu tabled 10♠10♥ for quad tens. By winning this pot, Stanciu grabbed the chip lead in the tournament.

Mahaut Asks For it All

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

In a battle of the blinds, Anthony Mahaut asked for a stack count from Andrei Spataru before opening to 150,000 in the small blind. Spataru took a moment before making the call in the big blind.

The 9♣K♣K♦ flop saw Mahaut continue for 100,000 and Spataru called to see the Q♠ turn.

Mahaut took some time and slid out a bet big enough to put his opponent all in. Spataru mucked his cards, while Mahaut raked in a nice pot.
